RUSSIA WILL NOT MAKE SEPARATE
PEACE. PATTERNS NEW GOV’T
AFTER AMERICA SAYS EXPERT
NEW YORK, July 15, (By Mail).—
Russia, as now constituted, is as little
likely to make a separate peace as is
the United States, in the opinion of C. j
H. Boynton, of New York, president'
of the American-Russian Chamber of
Commerce. Mr. Boynton, who is now
in Petrograd, has forwarded to the or
ganization, of which he is president, a
statement on the conditions in Russia,
in which he presents an optimistic
view of the Russian outlook. Wher
ever separate peace has been mention
ed, it has been howled down with in
dignation. he writes.
“That one may have a fair and just
appreciation of the events which have
taken and are yet to take place in Rus
sia, it is necessary to understand the
psychology of the situation. A nation
under a rule of absolute autocracy for
centuries suddenly found itself an ab
solute democracy. Almost over night
autocratic Russia became the most lib
eral democracy in the world.”
“This was not planned nor even or
ganized revolution, li was a sponta
neous outburst of dissatisfaction and
resentment against existing rule so
unanimous that an Empire became a
democracy with the least bloodshed
that ever overturned a long establish
ed reign. Keep straight before you
the fact that this has been a political
revolution. The problems now con
fronting the Government are both so
cial and political. Social evolution
must follow political revolution. In a
nation so huge and of such diversified
interests, time, courage and patience
must be allowed for clear understand
ing and adjustment. The marvel is
that with restraint and control abso
lutely removed, disorder has been so
inconsequential.
“The commercial and business op
portunities lie in every branch of in
dustry and trade, just as much as con
fronted the United States one hundred
years ago. War has created a scarcity
of labor and the war’s necessities
practically monopolize transportation
facilities. Thus immediate industrial
operations would encounter almost in
surmountable obstacles and heavy fi
nancial commitments for new enter
prises would not be justifiable at this
time. Merchants everywhere seek
American goods and orders are the
easiset of things tc secure, but deliv
eries are impossible, except for such
goods as the government permits for
the requirements of the war. There 1
is a world’s shortage of tonnage and
no private enterprise or opportunity
can be permitted to occupy one yard
of space that energetic prosecution of
the war requires.
“Russia has few' ports, and the full
transportation facilities from them are
more than necessary for handling ab
solutely essential freight. In refusing
to permit private enterprises to hin- j
der the war’s requirements, Americans
mus£ recognize that Russia is taking
a proper step to assist her Allies to
win the essential victory. To this end
all else must temporarily be subjected.
This condition is likely to continue as
long as the war lasts, but on the other
hand, American capital and merchants
interested in the Russian field should
not lose a moment’s time in having
their representatives in this field
studying its possibilities, creating or
ganization, making business connec
tions, learning where the opportunity
in their particular field lies, informing
themselves of the requirements of the
Russian trade in all its details, obtain
ing knowledge of the people and th^.r
language, in order to facilitate nego
tiations and thereby equip themselves
for the huge commercial business
which is certain to be coincident with
the close of the war. Those who neg
lect to take advantage of the present
for these preliminary steps will find
that when the war is ended others who
have done so will have a decided ad
vantage and the field will be occupied
by these and others who are geo
graphically nearer Russian markets.
“The new government is re-drafting
laws relating to finance, trade and in
dustry in such a way as to facilitate
the rapid economic development of
Russia and allow broad expansion of
her commercial and industrial life.
Russia opens her arms to serious busi
ness men whose object is not traffic in
concessions, but actual development
and production, and for such her terms
are sure to be liberal.
“America occupies a fortunate posi
tion in relation to the people of this
nation, who have been sentimentally
touched by the evidence of American
friendship and our quick recognition
of the new government. President
Wilson’s address to Congres*s, in
which he set forth America’s attitude
towards the war has been recognized
as practically expressing the same
views as are held by the Provisional
Government, and Tzeretelli, who is one
of the leaders of the Left, emphati
cally denied to the Douma that his
party was considering separate peace
and stated that it was an outrage
against patriotic men to attempt to
place upon them the burden of such a
position. The Embassy and Consulate
