Senator Ilorah wants the United
States to rvcognize the Russian gov-
ernment, because “outlawing the
Russian people is a. menace to world
peace and economic stability."
This is a subject on which there is
much in be said on both sides. Out-
side nntions. very likely. have
unjust to the Russians in some re-
spects. But as for "outlawing" Rus-
sia. it svcms rather that Russia has
outlawed iisr-lr'. by the hostility of
the SOVltl‘. government to other gov-'
