che support of the rest of Russia
The danger shat London fears is
that Lenine and Trotsky, leaders o.
che Bolshevili, viii be able to ex
tend their control beyond Petrograc
and sway the peasants. London be
.ieves that the Germans have aidet
rrotsky and Lenine in the uprising
and as evidence Of their belief they
point to the presence of the German
ileet near Sveaborg. Premier keren-
sky is reported as escaped and fleo
to Moscow, where he will endeavoi
to establish the capital, and reform
Russia against the usurpers.
1t is feared that the Bolsheviki,
pursuing its crazy plan of imme-
diate peace, may open the way to
the capital to the Germans.
