from the state department. as to the
next slept expected of the troops, but
it is now intimated that the next step
will not be taken Immediately. The
situation has lost something Of its
acuteness owing to the change in the
attitude Of the Russian government.
No official confirmation has reached

Withdrawal, but the fact is not doubted
here. Regardless. however, of the
course to be taken by Russia it is now
said there is nothing in the American
note of response to Russia that de-
mands an immediate evacuation in the
event that the Russian troops are called
away. Instead, it is stated that the
control OF the situation would simply
pass from the state department into
General Chafees hands, and it would
be for him, after comforting with the
other military commanders, to deter
