PARIS, Oct, eff Lenine and Trotzky
succeed in extricating themselves from
the military and economic morass in
which they are now floundering, it will
be because the present Generalization
Of the Soviets finds the Entente Allies
utterly lacking in any joint policy re-
garding Russia
Since the French recognition Of Gen.
Baron Peter Wrangel in south Russia
there has been no rapprochement be-
tween Great Britain and France on the
Russian question, and now the French
are complaining bitterly that it is the
British Governments uncertain atti-
tude which is saving the Bolshevist
oligarchy from receiving the coup de
grace.
Publication here to-day of the text
OF the proposed Anglo Russian agree
ment, which, although abortive. shows
that Premier Lloyd George was on the
point Of giving the Russian Soviet Gov
crnment political and commercial recog-
milton just before the present disasters
overlook the Reds. Is bound to accen-

Want Britain to Act.
This, however, would be allayed by
British recognition and assistance for
Gen. Wrangel. which 1t Is believed here

Bolshevist leaders are convoking meet
ings throughout Russia to arouse all tbs

WrangeL French advices are TO the et-
feet that the Russians have an army
100000 strong to use against Wrangel
but that this force Is almost without
equipment.
Wrangel is reported to have an army
of 400. 900 officers and men. but this
probably Is exaggerated. Real allied
support would. the French declare. put
Wrangel In commanding position.
Alone, France does not dare suggest to
the Poles that they hold their present
lines and act In conjunction with Wran-
gel, although they believe that this would

AppeaI to French workers.
The French Socialists, In sympathy
with the Sovlets point out that he is
using the former Denikine agents as his
ambassadors, asserting that these men
squandered large sums OF Denikine's
money.
The latest appeal by Georgevtch
Tchitcherin, Bolshevist Commissioner for
Foreign Affairs. to the French workers
has been picked UP by the radical organs
here, who again are urging workers In all
French factories to refuse to turn out
ammunition for Wrangel. This appeal.

that some other means OF furnishing

issued statement which said:
POLAND is now facing critical food
situation. The elsastrous effect OF the
Bolshevik advance Is distributed over
great part of Poland, and there are al
most 10000 miles of land completely
devastated, which cannot be cultivated In
the near future. Poland must feed her
people.
Therefore, Poland Is making this mp
