To the Editors of the CRIMSON:

I should like to correct the passage in the CRIMSON'S account of my address before the Cosmopolitan Club on Friday evening, in which I am represented as having spoken of the Russian Socialist parties as "led by men who for the most part are not honest fighters for an ideal, but German agents, who wish to stop the war and incourage a social revolution." Naturally, I made no such sweeping and unjustifiable indictment. But I did use substantially the words cited above with regard to some leaders of the most radical wing of the Russian Socialists, the Bolsheviki. This statement was based on the copious documentary evidence published by the Russian Government last July, evidence which, I think, has sufficiently opened the eyes of unprejudiced men as to the real character and the pernicious activities of many of the Bolshevik leaders. R. H. LORD.
