You can not confine an idea behind prison bars. You can not exclude it by tile most drastic legislation. The field of thought recognizes no barriers. The fact that there was almost no immigration during the war did not prevent us frol importing every abominable idea from Europe. We brought over the idea of deportation of radicals from France. not from the France of Rousseau. Jaures. and Victor Hugo but from the France of the Bourbons. We imported tile idea of the censorship of the press and the passport system from Russia. not from the Russia of Kropotkin and Tolstoy but from the Russia of Nicholas II.
