Europe has done a great deal to IN
Spire Americans with a distrust OF Eu-

constantly used. for example, as an ar

In the league Of nations, while onN the

a wholesome influence.

and one OF the most sensational, con-
Germ the relations between the British
war minister, Hon. Winston Churchill,
and the various counter revolutionary
elements In Russia. II has been no
secret that Mr.. Churchill was sympa-
thetic with Kolchak, Yudenitch, Dem
ikin, ETC., but It appears from the doc
ument in question that his sympathy
went further In the direction OF active
support than had been imagined. II
appears also that the policy OF the war
office, under Mr.. Churchill, has not
always been closely co-ordinated with

reason, that the whole Yudenitch af-
fair had German flavor; and (2) that
