Plea by a Russian peasant shapes senate Russia talk
G A Martusaine described as a Russian peasant and official representative of the North Russian government told the Senate propaganda committee that the United States and allies should aid Russia by crushing Bolshevism. He asserted the masses would resist terror and support a democratic government once Lenin and Trotsky are overthrown. He blamed Bolshevik terror for Russia’s disarray and said peasants fear crop seizure by Bolshevist forces. He argued terrorism, false land promises, and reactionary recruitment sustain Bolshevism and urged Allied aid to finish the Reds, citing past cooperation with Allied troops and friction with British officers.
