he said, look at this and he unrolled the

Then we went up and Adele sort Of

Jack and ! were married, and Adele re-
fused point blank, said that she did not

consequently opposed to the rccogni-
tlon Of the Tar Eastern Rcpublic,
which he describes ao dependency of
Moscow. However. he is certain that
the Soviet power will be oycrthrown
some day, and that democratic Rus
sia will arise out of its ruins. lie
feels that the rights Of such demo
cratic Russia In the lar East should
be respected, and that japanese aggres-
sion in Siberia should be curbed.
The book Is too short to contain any
very detailed analysis OF the couroe Of
events In The Far East during the last
three years. 1t gives some facts which
are not generally known about the
recent Russian penetration Of Mon
gola; and it quotes number Of e1-
tracts from the Bolshevik Official
journal "izvestia," illustrating the
Asiatic policy Of the Soviet govern
ment. For the rest it has the merit Of
assembling In compact form facts
which could be pieced together from
reference works and newspaper dis

RUSSIA ~ The FAR EAST w Leo
Pssvolssy Published by the Mscn,il,an
Company. si7S.
9TH the Near last and the Far
- East have long been recognized
as political danger centerr The
shot that echoed in reverbera-
lions on thousand battlehelds of the
World War was fired in sn obscure
corner CT the Balkans. And the clash
between Russian and Japanese i'm
perislism IN the Far Last brought on
one war and threatened others.
Mr.. Panaretoff. who occupies the
post Of Bulgarian Minister to the
United States, discusses the tangled
snd much disputed subject Of Balkan
history with scholarship and restraint
He does not attempt to rewrite history
N spirit Of nationalism; and his
chapters on the early history OF the
Balkan Slavs, on church organization
and education in the Near East and
on the devastating effects Of Ottoman
rule In the Balkan peninsula are fair
and dispassionate.
Naturally he attempts to make out
as good a case as possible for his own
country when he comes to discuss
present day political relations. Even
here, however. he is frank and mod
crate in his arguments. He a4nits
that the Bulgarian military authorities
were responsible for the unprovokcd
attack upon the Greek and Serbian
nrmies which prccipitated the Second
Balkan War.
He ascribes Rulgaria's participation
In the World War on the side Of the
Central Powers to two causes: desire
TO recover the territories which had
been lost after the Second Balkan
War and resentment at the failure OF
the Allies to assure Bulgaria that her
interests would be adequately pro-
ected after the conclusion of peace.
Mr.. PanaretoF denounces the terms Of
the Treaty Of Neuilly, by which Bull
garia is obliged to surrender territory
occupied by Bulgarian racial majorities
n Macedonia and the Dobrudja. He
expresses hope that the Balkan peo-
pies may outlive their traditional ma
-ional grudges and live in peace under
some form of federation
Ever since the Allied intervention in
Che summer Of 1918 Siberia has been
very unsettled country. The inter
uittent civil war between radicals and
conservatives has been complicated
and aggravated by the Japanese occu-
patton Of the important port Of vladi-
yostok, together with some of the sur
rounding territory.

~ URING the forty years from 1889
B to 1881 American ships carried
< an average Of 90 per cent Of
the foreign commerce Of the United
States In the year 1925 they carried
as high as 925 per cent. the largest
portion ever borne under the Stars and

wondering just what to do.
Clayton S. Cooper, in his exhaustive
book, goes so thoroughly into all phases
of the general problem Of the United

Importance is overlooked. In Part
he tells what is required of man who
