Excerpt from Trailing the Bolsheviki: Twelve Thousand Miles With the Allies in Siberia One war is over and another conflict begins. Following the tracks of Thor is visible the trail of the Bolsheviki. The armistice marked only a pause in the great world cataclysm - a pause where the contest ceased only long enough for the participants to change from nations to individuals. The Treaty of Peace, while recording the close of the war between the Associated Powers and the Central Empires, is but a sign to indicate the end of the War of Nations and the beginning of the period of reconstruction. The transition is from an international conflict of governments to a world contest between reconstruction forces - between those who believe in destroying the world to rebuild it and those who desire to accept the world as it is to remodel it. The two contestants are Bolshevism, or class individualism and a league of nations, or a union of world governments. The essential difference between the two is that the former demands a revolution of action and the latter symbolizes a revelution of opinion and adjustment. For five years I have been travelling as a correspondent within and without belligerent and neutral countries in Europe, Asia, and the Americas, following the developments of the war and studying the political and industrial causes and incentives of mass action.
