occupy the Chinese eastern railway
and also of sending agents into CEN
trail Asia to instigate revolt and in
general of planning a; new campaign
of intervention. The note warns tbs
Japanese government that the Rus
sian people are able to carry on a
new and victorious war if necessary
to make their power felt by those who
attack them.
However, the note continues. the
responsibility for these hostile acts
cannot be laid at the door of the
Japanese governpent alone. There is
proof that the French government is
one of the active inStigators in this
new interventioniSt campa ign, and is
taking part in the japanese plans
for the conquest of Siberia The So
Wet government cannot but consider

ally responsible for this new link in
the interventonist chain which ap-
nears to be the collective work OF the
| entente nations. 1t interprets this
faction on the part of the British gov
| eminent as a manifestation of hostile
activity out of harmony with the
Anglo o-Russian trade agreement.
! The note concludes by expressing an
;,,arrefic prnteSt against these acts.
