GUNNER TELLS OF "SHOOT" THAT PUT A GERMAN .PILL ROX OUT OF BUSINESS, Why Trotzky Wants Peace PO Booed de VW OOeOOd MONG the national leaders who have played an imperts ant part in shaping the des Went Right Into the Hole Through Which Fritz Shot. 'A gunner in the Fifth Canadian Siege Battery, who went from King- ston with "C" Battery, writes as fol- lows under date of March 16th: } | - We are called the "Ragtime Bat- but at the same time we ean { beat any other battery at any game, including the Lnportant cne of shoot- ling, We have done some great shooting on this front, mostly with the assistance of eur - fine alrmen, They are the boys who are doing the big thing,--the R, ¥. C., artillery -ob- Bervers sure have my admiration they get results. While it is nice to know you are doing good shooting and to receive congratulations for it, it has its disadvantages in the - fact that when there is a different shoot on the chances are we'll be 'called upon to pull it off if we can reach it. That means work," .The other day we had a most in- teresting shoot on." The -0.C., of our group allotted us 75 rounds te put a Fritzie pill-box out of commission. It was a very small affair, but extreme- ly strong, and had resisted all ef- forts to put it out of business since 'last April. In the meantime, owing to it enfilading one of our front line trenches, with a machine Eun mount- ed there, Fritzie had been causing heavy casualities. Our own OC, decided to conduct the shoot him- self, and also to use just No. 1 Gun, | which is the one I'm on. Being what is caMed a danger shoot (just beyond our lines, and the observers' in the forward trench or sap-infantry wijth- drawn for the time being) we wasted quite a few number of rounds before gelling' near our target. After that we put sixty-four all around it, only four actually bitting. © You can gain some idea as to how strong the tar- get was when I tell youf that one shell (mind you they weigh practically 300 pounds) actually hit square on top, bounced off and exploded in the ale, At the end of the 74th round all we had ace omplished was to put "a few cracks into it and disturb a few tous of earth around it. The gun was shooting great, answerigg. to every correction, but the trouble was that if the 0.C., gave me five minutes left the shell would land about five yards to the left of target, and when he sent the correction of five minutes more right, it would go the same dis- tance the ether side. Now, in actual firing we Tiever give a correction of less than five minutes but on this occasion the O.C., in desperation said "'Bplit the difference." I made the split as closely as I could and I'll be hanged 'if the 75th shell didn't go right into the hole through which Fritzle used to pop his machine gun. Needless to say that finished the job ~nothing left of it but pieces of con- €rete scattered around for Nundreds of yards. The fun came in though in that after the 74th round our ser geant, (who had been in the office all the time the shoot was an) came over to us and commiserated with us dd the "hard-luck-shoot'--a couple of officers did likewise hardest-luck $hoot they'd ever heard of ete. The major of the Infantry Battalion in the line at the time, had been up. observing also, but he too Had not stayed for the last round. The 0.C., was so excited that he didn't even telephone the redult in to the battery, so it was not untfl he re- turned that the result leaked out' Seon aftér getting back he met. the infantry major and upen telling him the major was so tickled he started right back out again to take a look at it. The first we on the gun heard of it was when our corporal came rushing bfick from the office, With the news that our sergeant had already begun to 'celebrate our sue- cess and was dancing about the street. Shortly afterwards we had the 0.C., over himself to tell us all about it. The officers had a big cele- bration that night on the strength of it. "We rustled ammunition about 2 a. m,, to replace that which we had tired. . Such is life!

His rise to power would appear to justify the asspmption that he is an adventurer. On account of his revolutionary doctrines, he was driven from many countries after leaving bis native Russia. He lived for a while in France, in Switzerland, and In Spain, and finally he resided In New York, where he made a pre- carious living as a journalist. For a shoft.time he was also the unwille ing guest of the Canadian Govern- ment when our military authorities had him. interned with the alien ene- mies--at Halifax, just when he was préparing to return to Petrograd to ald the Bolshéviki in sefzing the reins of power, The liistory of Trotzky's activties since the war began, the part played by him in the peace parieys and the many accusations that have beem brought against his motives combine to make his book, 'The Bolsheviki and World Peace," one of the most important contributions to the litera- ture of the great struggle. Its {uter- est lies in the fact that it. is a cone fession of faith and a Statement of policy writtén by a man who little dreamed when he wrote the book how 800m he would be in & porition to give practical expression to his doctrines, When Trotzky prepared his message a Romanoff still occupied the throne of Russia and the immediate hope of the author was "(he overthrow of Czardom,' buf it' must be noted that in his interpretation of world events he régarded the fall of the Czar as only the first step towards "the" revo- lution. When 'Trotzky 'speaks of "the" revolution, he refers to a great revolution by which the proletariat will take charge of the affairs of the uations, driving out the present "capitalists" and "bourgeois" govern. ments, 4s he describés.even the rulers of the great modern dewocracles, Anyone who reads "the Bolsheviki and World Peace" will find that the recent acts of the Russian Govern- ment are baged logically on the policy of Trotzky dnd his friends, though of course there will be many opinions as to whether or not the policy 1s a wise one. The Bolshéviki want the immediate cessation of the war because they be- lieve the cause of the proletariat de- mands if. Trotzky claims that in the war the eapitalist and fmperialist States have been using the people to further their own ambition, but he also contends that every capitalist state must in the end overreach itself and come to grief. He says that when the war broke eut the nationalist leaders were able to play upon cer. tain emotions of the common people, who were organized and. cajoled inte fighting for various causes, The Rus- sian revolutionist. believes that the very attention bestowed upon the peo- ple strengthened their class con- sclousness and awakened them to a realization of their own importance. The theorists of the Bolsheviki fear, however, that if the war continues, the people will be brought to a stage of exhaustion that will indefinitely posipohe "the" revolution, which is to be a class struggle. The Russian Socialists believe that they must se- Curé a peace as soon ag possible for the sake of their cause, but Trotsky adds an implied threat when he says, "A working class that has been through the school of war will feel the peed of using the lahguage of force as soon as the first serious ob-- stacle faces them in their own coun- try." - Whatever may be the ultimate ver- dict of history regarding the Bolshe- viki, their place in the world to-day is 80 important that no well-informed person ean afford to misunderstand them. For that reason, "The Bolshe- viki and World Peace" is one of the outstanding vgwmes of the decade. In redding it a person must remember thdt a new type of chiracter has bes come influential in world politics. Here Is dn estimate of Leon Trotzky that Lincoln Steffens, a friendly cri- tie, gives in the short introduction, "He l¢n't pro-allies; he isn't even pro- Russian. He isn't a patriot at all. He is for a class, the proletariat, the he is for his class only to get rid of classes and get down or up fo hu manity," 'The book disposes of the Idea that Trotzky deliberately Tavors either side in the war, and it ends ith a shout that shows how com e ly he believes in his own cause. He declares, "We feel ourselves to he he only creative force of the futurs. Already there are many of us, more may seem. To-morrow there more of us than to-day.
