Russian refugees who are awaiting
here the fall Of Bolshevism before

It is believed TO be the largest Of
the colonies that have formed in all
large European centers like Stock

Berlin, Geneva and Rome, pending
the return of habitsble conditions

Unfortunately while all Of these
Russians are united in one common
respect-namely. an inability TO re-
turn to Russia until the Bolsheviks
are overthrown-they are disunited
from almost every other point Of
view. First OF all they represent
every political belief in Russia, all
of which seem as irreconcilable with
each other as with Bolshevism.
