SEEK OVERTHROW OF GOVERNMENT Russian Bolsheviki Strike at the United States Through Propaganda. REDS PLAN BIC REVOLUTION Avail Themselves of Every Opportunity to Bring About the Forcible Downfall of the American System of Government. Washington, Nov. s.—The Russlnu bol heviki “have availed themselves of every opportunity to Initiate In the. United States a propaganda aimed to bring about the forcible overthrow of our present form of government." Chairman Wadsworth of the senate military committee htu» been informed by Assistant Secretary Phillips in a letter made public at the senate department. .Mr. Phillips said the bolsheviki had tit their disposal a huge sum of gold, made up partly of the Russian gold reserve and partly of money secured , from Roumania. It was important, he said, to pre- , vent trade relation 1 * with soviet Russia in order to keep this gold from coming to America to lie used for the promotion of revolt against the government. Ship No Goods to Reds. Mr. Phillips said that while there was no blockade of Petrograd so far ns the United Stales was concerned, no licenses for the shipment of goods to bolshevik Russia were being issued. This policy of nonintercourse, he added. could not he continued after the proclamation of peace without additional legislation. Mr. Phillips wrote In reply to Senator Wadsworth, who had asked why the administration had adopted a policy of nonlntercourse with that part of Russia controlled by the bolsheviki. His letter in part follows: “In reply to your letter of October 20. 1019, concerning the so-called blockade of Petrograd, I beg to Inform vou that, so far as the United States Is concerned, no blockade exists. It Is tlie present policy of this government, however, to refuse export licenses for shipments to Russian territory under bolshevik control and to refuse clearance papers to American vessels seeking departure for Petrograd, the only remaining bolsheviki port. As you tire aware, these measures cannot be continued after the ratification of peace unless there is new legislation. Plan World Revolution. “The policy of nonlntercourse with territory under bolshevik control is based chiefly on two considerations. It is the declared purpose of the bolsheviki in Russia to carry revolution throughout the world. They have Invailed themselves of every opportunity to initiate In the United States a propaganda tinned to bring about the forcible overthrow of our present form of government. They have at their disposition in Russia a large quantity of gold, being partly a reserve of gold belonging to the Roumanian government which was stored in Moscow for safe keeping at the time of the German advance into Roumania. It is considered important that the bolsheviki should not be given the means through commercial transaction to bring this gold into the United States, where it could be used to sustain propaganda of violence and unreason. Foreign Trade “Nationalized.” "The second consideration related to the control which the bolsheviki exercise over the distribution of neces irities. All foreign trade has been ‘nationalized.’ This means that there can be no dealing except with the bolshevik authorities. Moreover, since the fall of 1918 the bolsheviki have maintained a system of discrimination in tlie distribution of fund. Tlie population is divided into categories along occupational and class lines' and receives food, so far as food may be available, in accordance witli n scale which is adjusted with a view to the maintenance of tlie bolsheviki in power and the fulfillment of their program for the extinction of the middle classes.” Japan Will Co-operate. Japan, replying to a note from the American government last September regarding conditions in Siberia, has expressed a willingness to co-operate with the American authorities, both military and civil, in that country. This announcement was made at tlie state department, but tlie text of the Japanese reply was withheld. The American railway mission to Siberia is not to be withdrawn at this time, state department officials said. The members of the mission nt Omsk have moved to Irkutsk because of the advance of the bolsheviki and officials said this fact probably gave rise to the report that the railway corps was to leave Siberia.
