Extreme chaos has continued TO
mark the Russian situation. the only
thing that has seemed really clear
being that Germany is determined TO
take advantage of the utter collapse
Of Russia to seize such TERRITORY and
supplies as she desires. The boil
sheyik ENJOYS presented the humiliat-
ing spectacle of signing a peace treaty
without discussion, fearing as they an
nOunced, that negotiations would only
result in the imposition of more OBJ
noxiOus terms But even after the
Russian peace delegates had thus
iebnsed themselves the Germans con
tinued their invasion of Russian terri
tory.

people will accept the humiliatng peace
terms agreed to by the bolshevik dele

lister, indicated that he and his AS
sociatcS are. concerned with the future
of the revolution, rather than the fu-
ture of Russia as national entity.

The haste of the Russian ENJOYS in
signing treaty Of pence with Ger
many was explained on the ground
that the terms proposed by the Teu-
tonic ENJOYS were growing more 0ner-
ola, hourly. At the last minute the
Germans demanded three great trans
CaucasiOn provinces-Karubad, karS
and Batoum-presumably for their
Turkish ally, and they got them, Of

their eyes and signed the document as
