LONDON, June 5.-Every fresh au-
thentic report from Russia tells Of in
cessant activity by the Germans to
extend and fortify the kaiser's posi-
tion in the east. With Gen. Foch's
strategy unmistakab1y beginning to
tell against the German troops driv-
ing for Paris, interest in Teuton ag-
gressions against Russia has revived
here with redoubled force. In the
Times yesterday correspondent. just
back from Petrograd and Moscow.
devoted Q powerful article to this
subject. His view is that the real
threat to the ultimate allied victory IL
not in the west at all, but in the east
Urges Winning Of Russia.
whoever wins Rutsia now will
dominate history for generations to
come" he declares. His urgent REQ
ommendation is that the allies appoint
a committee Of the ablest men they
can find to decide on objectives in the
east, and proceed Immediately to gain
these detectives, three of which he
suggests:
j. The stabilization Of Russia under
a representative government.
2. The recreation Of the transport
system.
8. Revival Of agriculture. industry
and commerce.
Beyond this broadly outlined pro-
gram the correspondent does not go.
However, nobody In London believes
that anything can be done except
through An allied military nucleus
about which the present suppressed
elements in Russia might rally.

LONDON. Tuesday. June 4.-The
Chronicle publishes an editorial
strongly advocating some kind Of AL

as rallying point for Russians in re-
sisting German penetration.

"As it is desirable that a direct
clash between the allies and the Ger
