ABSTRACT
Since the November revolution the communists in Russia have been engaged in trying to carry on as a communist dictatorship. On January 19, 1918, the communists, controlling the Soviet, dissolved the Constituent Assembly and immediately began a drive for peace in order that they might “have a breathing space for internal stabilization and for an increase in the Russian power of resistance,” and on March 16, 1918, signed the “Tilsit” peace.
