Moscow can be under no illusion on this point. She knows perfectly well that, although, she might beat the Manchu armies, she would not be allowed to reap any local fruits ot victory. The Japanese have kicked the Imperial Russians out of Manchuria, and have no intention of allowing the Red Russians to return.

Disgraceful Episode
It is said that; in America, a code damned criminal who had a good alibi but would not plead it because it con- cerned a disgraceful episode, reveal- ed it when he was no drugged, and thus saved his life.
