THOUGHTS FOR THE TIMES
BOLSHEVIK PROMISES. Just at the time when the Soviet ’government is trying to convince the Powers in general, and Britain in particular, that it has “sworn off” the diffusion of revolutionary propaganda, the “Pravda” has issued a statement that seems calculated to provoke a little serious thinking. The Bolshevik organ states that a newspaper, to be called the “Daily Worker, ’’ is to he established in Britain “to mobilise the masses” against “trade union bureaucracy, British capital and its policemen lackeys who are now in power.” Probably the “Pravda” knows what it is talking about. But, remembering the valuable contributions and subsidies received by British Communist agitators from Russia a few years ago, we may well ask if the Soviet. Government dissociates itself entirely from this movement and is prepared to control and discipline the Russian subjects who are helping to organise it.
