FRIENDSHIP BETWEEN THE THREE NATIONS.

A very enjoyable reception was given at the China Merchants Club yesterday afternoon in honour of H.E the Governor of Macao with the object of enabling leading mem- bers of the Chinese community to meet the distingushed visitor to the Colony.

Bolshevist intrigue in the East has found a new outlet. Moscow is striking at India through Afghanistan by way of Turkistan. Soviet Russia through its agents

Community were present. the affairs of the native States of India, but with this difference, that whereas in India intervention of the Paramount Power is avoided as far as possible, the Soviet, whilst styling the above-mentioned Cen- tral Asian States independent Soviet Republics, has forced the peoples of Turkistan to realize that they are to take their cue frem Moscow, correspondant now in Afghanistan writes to the Morning Post:

The President of every Turkistan Repablic must be appointed by the Political Bureau of Eastern Affairs at the Russian capital, and the fact that he has full power to dissolve Parliament without being respon sible to his people for doing so Bolshevist makes him virtually a offcor.

The President has not only to send periodical reports to Moscow about the activities and sentiments of his Council, but he has also in

large measure to carry out the Communist programme communi- cated to him by the head of the Political Bureau. Thus any "in- dependence" of these Central Asian States is reduced to a shadow.

Thraldom:

Tea was served in the large club room and the Footwarmers Or- chestra, under Mr. S. Pinna gave a number of selections, also playing the Portuguero National Anthem when Senhor Barbosa arrived.

The party at Sir Show Son Chow's table (given in the order in which they were seated) was as follows:

Hon. Mr. Owen Hughes, Comdr. A. Pinheiro, 1dle. Albuquerque, Hon. Mr. C. McL Messer, Hra. Southern, Commodore J. 1. Pearson, C.G. Mime. Albuquerque, H.E. Major-General C. C. Luard, Lady, Chow,
