CHINESE EASTERN RAILWAY.
Moscow, May 28. Commenting on the conflict over the Chinese Eastern Railway owing to the Chinese President of the Board of Railway Directors cancelling the order of the general manager, Mr. Ivanov, dismissing railway employees who were neither Chinese nor Soviet citizens, the Izvestia suggests that behind the activity of the Manchurian adminis- tration violating the interests of the railway as well as general political interests of the Soviet, is Chang Tsu-lin's hostility to the Soviet whom it suspects of alleged support of Feng and the Kuomint ang and also incitements of foreign powers.
Reactionary circles in Japan are striving to drive out the Soviet from Manchuria, particularly from the Chinese Eastern Railway, Britain also has lately favourably changed her treatment of Chang Teo-lin,
