GENERAL HORVATH LEADING THE CHINA MOVEMENT.

There is a movement on foot in White Rusdan circles throughout China, which is only the local out- cropping of a much larger move ment of international importance and, which gives some promise of bringing forth a compact, world- Russian wide organization of emigrants, respective of former politics or present ambitions-for- the Rusia that is to succeed the U.S.S.R.. but bound together by the single purpose of freeing the homeland of the despotism that har") decimated, ruined and disgraced it. Five years ago the bare suggestion of such a movement to unify the as the Russians call Emigration," their 4,000,000 exiles who are scat tered about the world, would have been received by the leaders of the various parties and cliques with' cynical mirth.

It has not been many months in- deed since the common response to the suggestion that the anti-Bolshe vist Rumians abroad should sink- their differences and rivalries and work to a common end invariably was that there were still too many would-be Napoleons at large who saw in any undertaking to over- turn-the-Soviet régime, no more than an opportunity to displace then 11thur own personal

that there many aspirants to dictatorial glory had only to attain a certain degree of success in any joint campaign" to be more engrossed in each other's undoing than in the discomfiture of the common enemy,

and

Reaction To Red Exploitation. Something now, however, has had the moral effect of giving the Russian exiles much more confi- dence in the possibility of forming a non-partisan league. Perhaps it has been a realization of the fact that their prospects of returning to a same and healthy Russia are not improving with the passage, of time but diminish with the rise of a generation spiritually poison. ed from childhood. At any rate it would appear that an impatience with petty rivalries has arisen in the masses of the Emigration which has been felt strongly even in China sad has forced the above mentioned Napoleons in embryo to conceal their ambitions and sup port the movement.

Very favourable moment for the Emigration to organize within itself a movement which will enable the exiles of our kin to endure all the hardahins with which their lives shound. The reconciliation of leaders who -were- formerly divided and a powerful showing among all of a common spirit have recently been the best evidence that, in the past ten years the Emigration has not degenerated but is now a more resolute and deeply inspired body.
