and made his way through the crowd
alone.

IS GIVEN
RECOGNITION
BY FRANCE
Foreign Office Announces
Note Is Ready to Send
to Moscow

PARIS, Oct. 2S.-Announcement
was made by the foreign office to-
day that a French note recognizing
the Russian Soviet government
would be sent to Moscow later in
the day.
The Petit Journal, in commenting
upon Premier Herriot's, decision to
grant de lure recognition to the
Soviets, said that this action placed
France in position to discuss the
debt which Russia owes to France.
THE first result Of recognition
will be the establishment Of
diplomatic relations" said the Petit
Journal. Jean Herbette is men
toned as the possible French am.
bassador to Moscow M. Rakovsky,
who has been representing Russia
in England, probably will come to
Paris"
Premier Herriot's decision did not
come as q surprise. Herriot Is a
member Of the radical socialist party
and has maintained a pro.Russian
policy since taking office.
At this moment relations between
the Russian and British govern
ments are somewhat strained, owing
to the Zinoviev letter incident.
Great Britain has recognized the
Moscow government and has me-
gotiated a treaty with the Soviets,
but 1t has not yet been ratified by
the British Parliament. A similar
treaty probably will be effected by
France to protect commercial inter.
ests in Russia.
