Both Paris and London have indicated through official or semi-offi-cial sources that the Allies would not hesitate to fight Soviet Russia if the a circumstances warranted and this attitude appears to have been bolstered by recent Nazi - efforts to bring Russia and Italy into a bloc with the Reich to drive Allied influence from the Balkans. .

of“ the Russian steamship Mayakovsky at Hong Kong. The Mayakovsky was seized as it was on its way to Vladivostok from the United States. : The Mayakovsky was the first ship engaged - in ‘direct United StatesRussian trade to fall to the Allied blockade. Its arrest, search and detention appeared to have exasperated the Russian Government, which ‘besides protesting and demanding the ship’s immediate release reserved the right to claim compensation. The British replied that they were investigating.
Russia Annoyed ’ But Russia had further reason for annoyance because of an earlier incident. The Russian steamship Selenga, en route to Vladivostok from Manila with tungsten, tin.and anti mony, all vital war materials, was halted by British warships near Formosa, off the China Coast, Jan. 13, and taken to Hong Kong, where it remains despite repeated Russian protests. The British are not ‘likely to take any hasty steps toward: improving relations with Moscow. On several ocasions, British Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain has resorted to unusual phraseology in regard to relations with Russia by saying that Britain was. “not yet” at war withthe Soviets. Thus it has been emphasized since the collapse of the Finnish war that the - British, and: especially the French, have given full consideration to whether it would be wise to fight the Russians and Germans at the same time rather than permit the Soviets to cling to a technically neutral position that enables them to supply the Nazi war iachine with essential materials.
Hope to Maintain Status
Both Adolf Hitler ‘and Josef V. Stalin ardently” want" to maintain that status for both countries (and to bring Italy into the bloc). As a result, the Russian Government is believed likely to be: slow to take any action that. might provide an excuse for the Allies to break relations (the French demand for Souritz withdrawal was accepted reluctantly: by Moscow) although both the French and British: ambassadors
have long been absent from the Sov-
iet capital,

The Bradrdites are saying Vandivier has a e 48 c nges in ward chairmen in the last 18 months. In any event, despite the truth or falsity of the charges made by each camp, the political kettle is boiling at a great rate.
