As for Wilson, he has lost the greatest part of the popularity he had when landing in France; during the peace meetings he proved himself to be the most autocratic of all the democrats. We had and have still also lots of strikes; although I don't think Bolchevism would succeed in France, the smallest disorders should be very bad in our very low state of affairs.

Yours very truly
