"With the greatest possible hesitation I am venturing here to say that public agitation against Russian Communistic propaganda is in the judgment of many Anglo-Russians unneces sary, and very likely to do harm. Communism is daily diminishing In influence in Russian thought and action. Its condemnation by Lenin, if that condemnation is left to do its own work, must have its effect, as no one else in this generation will have his influence. Public agitation, there- fore, in this country, and unre presented there, in Russia, may only just stir up opposition afresh..

A WEEK'S PAPERS IN ONE.
Indiscriminate fighting on the various fronts in China has ceased for the time being. All eyes are turned to General - Chiang Kai-shek who, with Feng Yu-hsiang, is preparing to attack the "Reds." These generals have formed an alliance for this purpose, and the former has issued his ultimatum to Hankow. So far the Communists have not replied, but a big move is expected in a day or two. All the movements leading up to this momentous situation are set forth in this week's "Overland Mail."
Shanghai for the time being has dropped out of the picture. Interest is centred more in the north of the country, noticeably around Tientsin and Peking. Here important steps regarding fortification are being taken, and full details of these and latest troop movements are given in the "Overland.”
This week's issue also contains a resume of the new Hong Kong Government measure to protect the inhabitants of the Colony against illegal strikes, "Never again," says the Government, with its mind on the last affair. Read about the . Ordinance in the "Overland."
And send the paper home. It has in it all the week's local news, sporting items and social happenings; special articles by trained writers; thoughtful and well-informed editorials.
