the ministry there was an immediate up-
roar. the members of the douma fearing
that this meant the beginning of a policy
OF isolation. Had the counsels of the more
radical leaders prevailed IL is possible that
a deputaton of the members might have
forced or tried to force an entrance into
the cars presence, TO present the reply
with defiance. Such a proceeding could
only have precipitated the reaction which
every friend OF Russian advancement hopes
will not come.
Instead of doing such rash thing the
members have quieted down and, swallow

the cars requirement that the reply be
sent through the ministry and have pro-
ceeded TO discuss the agrarian question.
That is by far the better way. Nothing
could be gained by forcing the issue. for
the issue itself was not of paramount i'm
portance. The douna must logically regard
the ministry as representing the eZar and
serving a medium OF communication.

concessions will be as effective in one case
