Ele- Traoedy In, Hit Early Life Largely In- fluenced the Actions of Sinister Rusilan Revolutionist. Lenin, that extraordinary Russian, is well enough kuown to the world as politician and leader, but little known us a personality. W. 11. P. llasevl, In the Forum, discloses some Interest- tr.is fnnta rutfn ,-flfllir tllu fellllpn t Innn I fltlll in.irnl ItiMiuitipuu llinf unrlv cliim(,it Him I character of this sinister revolutionary and that went toward the making of the man who bus turned the tremen dous tide of u vast empire. "Until 1017," writes Mr. llasevl, "he was merely one of a host of dis gruntled exiles, wanderers In foreign lands, who lled from hand to mouth by free-lunce Jpurnallsm, or picked up it precarious livelihood as tourists' guides or by lecturing and teaching Russian, assisted ut Infrequent and un certain intervals by remittances from leluctant relatives, and loans from friends. Drien by poverty as well as by conviction to Join the underworld of revolutionary Intriguers, and to Join in plots ugalnst the government wher ever they might lie, they were always under surveillance by the police, nnd were compelled to change their names as frequently as their homes In order to evade imrsult and gain a little res pite." And continuing, Mr. Uasevi says: "Vladimir Ilyltch Ullanoff, whose iiom de guerre is Lenin, is the son of a member of the lower order 'of the hereditary nobility. The father appar ently had revolutionary theories which Lenin and his elder brother put Into practice. The two boys were educated at the Kazan university, and here oc curred a tragedy which was probably the turning point In Lenin's career. His elder brother was executed for com plicity In a plot to assassinate the czar, Alexander III. It is not difficult to un derstand the effect of this distressing event upon an emotional and courage ous youth, already convinced that ab solutism was the cause of all the trou bles In bis unhappy country. In his eyes, bis brother was a martyr, and he himself was ready for the same fate. Hut martyrdom was not his fate. If that is yet to come, If be Is to meet bis death by assassination, which Is so frequently the end of revolutionar ies, It will come by a strange Irony, not In the cause of liberty, but for exer cising a despotic tyranny unknown in all the history of the ezars. Leuln was expelled from the Kazan university for , participating In a political demonstra tion. He studied law at the Univer sity of Petrograd, and 1" later years was exiled to Siberia for bis connec tion with revolutionaries In Switzer land. Much of his life wns spent abroad, and he married a woman who bail been exiled for voicing extreme opinions. . . . " bat Robespierre was to Gamelln Kvarlste, Karl Marx and Engcls are to Leuln. Prom bis own writings it Is evident that he Is a man with a narrow but acute Intellect, and possesses the purely deductive type of mind. His tendency Is to discard all complex and confusing facts, and for the sake of clearness .and simplicity to consider life unci men ns abstractions. . . . "To Lenin, Marx and Hngels are the prophets of a new religion, and Das Kapha!- a holy Koran, every word In spired. To criticize It Is blasphemy; to dltfer from It the most damnable of heresies.' It Is the llrst word ami the last, the Alpha and Omega, the be ginning and the end of economic doc trine. The entire domination which these works exercl.e over bis In tellectual faculties Is evident through out bis writings. To confute an nil veisary be quotes a text and feels the matter Is settled." Maxim Gorky. "Maxim Gorky," who was reported to be on bis way to Englnnd on a visit to H. G. Wells, but Is still held up by the Holsbevlst authorities on the frontier. Is Alexel Pyeshkof, the poet and chronicler .of the pariahs and vagabonds of Russian society, says Living Age. "Gorky" means "bitter." The full niinie, "Mitxlm Gorky," may, perhaps, be read to mean "the bitterest of the Bitter." The pseudonym effectively symbolizes Pyesbkof's attitude toward life, for bis fiction Is the distilled es sence of the disappointed. He was not at lirst a Holsbelk. snd he seems only to have Joined the Holsbevlst ranks under pressure. Given his choice between low diet and high olllce, he preferred the hit ter, which l one, happily, that does not require ti'm to take actle part lu the perpetration of atrocities.
