BRITISH PUBLIC OPINION AND THE SOVIET GOVERNMENT. [TROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.]

Lonnox, February 28th. China and especially the safety of British nationals in that country continues to occupy-first-place in public attention. The subject an the papers every day. Whatever may have been the faults in the past about keeping the British public informed regarding events in China-and the

The cables arrive with unfailing regularity telling of every move in the war game which has been going on for weeks past; and if John Citizen at home or in the train finds it a bit difficult to know who's who among Chinese generals, or to identity particular places with unpronouneable Chinese names, it must be said to his credit that he is manfully doing his bit to under. stand
