Our Russian Diplomacy.

In dealing with the Bolshevist GOV
eminent set up at Petrograd, the diplo-
macy of the allies OF Russia has been Sc
verely tested. The present situation,
however, iustifies praise of the attitude
hitherto assumed by the entente end
Amrican governments. That President
Wilson exercised large influence in pre-
venting a rupture with Lenine and Trot-
sky which might have left the Germans
with a free hand in Russia, in case ri the
failure of domestic attempts to over
throw the Bolshevik regime, is not a
diplomatic secret. The policy followed
by the allies was the guieseent one of
observation. 1t was evidently believed
in Washington that if the BoIshevik
commissioners could extract fairly Jeff
mite peace terms from the Germans they
would have their eyes opened to the real
purposes of the German government.
The belief seems already to have been
justified. There is no rejoicing in Petro-
grad as Germany's terms become more
clearly and precisely defined.
America and the allies NAV profitably

Msximalist peace diplomacy. The more
