difficult diplomatic job in the world.

Sokolnikoff is a we'll known finan-
cier and trade expert and has been for
a long time a member of the central

IN the Far East. Either is said to be

Rumors that George Tchicherin him.
self might take the post apparently
are discredited. Meanwhile, the pos
sibility definitely arises that there may
be no new Soviet envoy at all. A Pc
tition, already signed by 200 mem
bers of the british Parliament, pro-
testing against a new appointment,
is getting under way.
Flushed with the triumph of the re-
cent sensational campaigns, the Daily
Mail is throwing all its powerful inf1u-
ence against resumption of relations
between the two countries.

'Why have one?" is the Daily Nails
answer to the question ewho will sue

the Soviets promise no longer to in
Serfere with British trade in China,
and no longer to spread propaganda
among the coal miners here?"
The moderates in the British gov
ernment, however, are not likely to
heed the campaign. With the coal
strike over, Secretary A. J. Cook Of
the Miners Federation left for Mos

fore departing he revealed that Mos
