While the cables have doubtless fully indicated the extent of the popular as well as the official rejection of the Bolshevist proposal for a renewal of trade; relations between, the United States und Rusia, it may be doubted whether they could reveal the extent of American "spr- prite and resentment-no other word quite describes the emotion-over, the | coure of Mr. Lloyd George. It is per haps the most inexplicable thing, on our side of the water, which has occurred aince the signing of the Treaty of Verailles.

Rightly or wrongly, the thing has been set down to the exigencies of your domestic politics. Just as you have cume to assign this explanation to many of the otherwise inexplicable turns in Ameri can affairs, we are coming to use this convenient phrase to cover developments in your country which pass our under. standing. We believe that, by and large, informed opinion in Great Britain holds the ameview 'as to Red Russia as the similar section of American opinion. We have read most of the utterances of your public men on the Russian question and and that they do not differ in any measure from expressions of opinion, by our statesmen, which have elicited almost universal approval here.
