The Afghans ana the Persians signed
with fortnight to spare. but the Turks
still haggled over Batunl. and the final
victory in the chess play became a
question of hours. Georgevitch Tchit-
cherin, Soviet Commissioner for Foreign
Affairs, in q special statement regard
ing these treaties. said:
'"rhe Turkish treaty was signed be-
fore We learned that Krassine had af-
fixed his signature to the Anglo Russian
trade agreement"
He asserted that the substance of this
Russo-Turkish treaty was no obstacle
to friendly relations between Great Brit
ain and Russia
Great Britain cannot demand that
Russia should go to war with Turkey"
he continued, land peace demands a
settlement of the frontier questions Nor
can we exist without settlements with
Afghanistan and Persia. and we con-
slider that friendly relations with these
countries are perfectly compatible with
regular and friendly relations with Great
Britain"
Turning from one part OF the chess
board to another. NJ. Tchltcherin said
OF the Anglo-Russian trade agreement:
"A new page has been opened in
Russo-British relations We. on our
part, viii now strictly adhere to the
obligations to which we are bound by
the terms of the agreement and we have
the right likewise to expect of Great
Britain that she will carry out her en-
sagements and refrain from hostile
activities against us. Mutual relations
based on a strict fulfilment OF the agree
ment Is OF greatest advantage to both
of us and will contribute In the highest
degree to a settlement of the difficult
political questions throughout the world.
such questions are numerous and
will have TO be attentiveiy treated.
Therefore we have always contemplated

tons with Great Britain as a necessary
step toward eradicating all causes for
friction. The British Government can
be sure OF good will on our part and OF
a faithful observance by US OF our OBJ
legations"

with the declaration that all of Russia's

and other things which were created by
the old Russian Government. Indeed.
in annulling the old concessions, Russia
makes the Anglo Persian agreement
seem undesirable in comparison with the
new one she has negotiated. The Rus
slams have no need to stir UP National
list feeling there. The feeling already
exists. and the Russian play is merely
to persuade Persia that she. Russia, is
no longer fit object for Persian resent
ment. The onus is in tacitly directing
the whole Nationalist force against Eng
land. who by no means is prepared for
the thoroughgoing. self-denying ordeals
which Russia can cite at no cost to her
self
The Afghan treaty would have been
signed months ago ii the Russians had
not felt bound slightly TO curb Afghan
zeal by rejecting a clause the Afghans
wanted inserted in II and which insured
the free transit OF war munitions for
Afghanistan. a clause which obviously
would have imperilled Russian neutral
ity..
The agreement with the Turks also Is
not Communist in character. but the
move Is intended TO make II impossible
to use the Turks against Russia. That
the Turks have other views. THE NEW
York HERALD correspondent IN Moscow
talked with Ali Ruad. Turkish Minister
here. and found the Turkish position
clear enough. Ali saw Russia as Tur-
keys only possible ally In a struggle
with the West, to which the Turks be-
lieve themselves committed-"with the
sincerity of the Turlls'--as Yousuff
Kennel Pasha insisted again and again
during the Russo-Turlsish negotiations.
The Turks believe that Russia and Ma
tionalist Turkey have identical enemies
in the Western capitals. In private
conversations the same Turkish plenipo-
tentiaries let slip that they regard much
OF the territory now controlled by Rus
STA as essentially Turkish.
Hence the extreme urgency, from
Russia's viewpoint, of cIinching the
Turkish agreement and thus both
weaken possible hostile combination
and gain time. The main object was to
get the Turkish agreement signed be-
fore the Allies could agree with the
Turks In London over the Greco-Turilish
settlement Then there came a tele-
gram from Leonid Krassine saying that
the Anglo Russian trade agreement was
at the point Of being signed. and in
diplomatic circles IN both London and
in Moscow the Cronstadt rising was
scarcely noticed in the race for sigma
lures, which ended in something like a
dead heat.
