Experts suggest that Japan and Russia will agree to end the Chinese war by dividing China between them. British statesman Winston Churchill said that Great Britain had no intention of making war on the Soviet Union.

The article presents information on socio-political conditions of various countries. The specific form of assistance which revolutionary Russia expects from her allies was not mentioned in Kererisky's statement of last week with its mingled pathos and suggestion of ominous possibilities. It is not money, nor American supplies, nor the cooperation of the British fleet which Kerensky had primarily in mind, but that restatement of war aims by the Allies upon which internal strife in Russia has centred almost from the first days of the Revolution. The inability or unwillingness dl the Allied Governments to lay down a concrete programme has made Kereusky's task terribly difficult by playing into the hands of the extremists.

This article focuses on the peace situations as viewed by the Russians and by a group of Britishers after a too brief stay in the Soviet Union. In a crowded fortnight there was a good opportunity of sightseeing and frank conversations with representative persons on the problems of peace. According to the representatives, in Moscow, Leningrad, and Kiev there are historic places, secular and religious, and the priceless art treasures of the Russian past, all of which the Soviet government is maintaining and restoring with infinite care and plentiful funds.

This article presents information on various socio-political developments in the world. The incident, in the North Sea, of the outgoing Baltic fleet firing upon innocent British trawlers, had a tragic aspect and a nationally inflammatory effect. In reality, however, it was far less calculated to embroil England and Russia than the attempt to control contraband on merchant vessels. Russia may go to the verge of international law in her efforts to cripple Japan, but she could never purposely seek to draw England into hostilities along with her treaty ally. "Independence is their cherished ideal," said Frederick W. Atkinson, ex-superintendent of public instruction in the Philippines, at Lake Mohonk, on Thursday, "and that they may ultimately realize the ideal is, I believe, the unexpressed purpose of those who have undertaken the tutelage of these peoples." This, according to rules laid down for political discussion by the U.S. Republican party, is about as far as an American citizen may go without crossing the "treason" line.

The announced intention of the Allied Control Council in Berlin to deal with Germany's food problem on a national instead of a zonal basis focuses attention on a fundamental difficulty of the four-power administration of Germany. At the present time the defeated country and its shattered capital are divided into four zones, each under the control of one of the four Allies the U.S., Great Britain, Russia, and France. Allied Control Council was formed to coordinate policies in the different zones. Divergent policies and practices in the four zones have been inevitable, given the well-known differences of tradition, temperament, and method of the occupying powers.

Focuses on the role of the U.S., as a member of the United Nations, with respect to international disputes. Effect of the referee attitude of the U.S. at the first session has been to maintain the status quo in Iran, Greece and Indonesia; Information that at the first session of the United Nations the U.S. devoted its attention to preventing Russia and Great Britain from coming to grips as a result of their rival ambitions; Statement that the U.S. has a stake in Indonesia in that the whole of Asia will judge the U.S. by whether it encourage or repress the yearnings of Eastern peoples for independence.

The article presents news related to politics from different parts of the world. Diplomatic opinion in Washington D.C. accentuates the inherent improbability of tile story from Peking that Great Britain and Russia have formally protested to Japan against the exercise of undue pressure upon China. Under ordinary circumstances the purported wording of the protest lodged at Tokyo would come close to being an ultimatum. To imagine that Great Britain and Russia in the present world emergency, would threaten Japan with the severance of diplomatic relations is difficult.

The article presents information about the improvement in Anglo-German relations, results of the Balkan wars and the attitude of Russia. The main factor in bringing about improved conditions between Great Britain and Germany was undoubtedly the Balkan War. The Anglo-German rivalry presented mankind with the spectacle of two perfect egotism's. Young Germany was fully convinced that the world had been Anglo-Saxonized long enough and that it was time to give modern methods a trial which could not be if the globe was still to be regarded as a prolongation of the London suburbs.

The article presents information on various developments related to international relations. France's position in regard to terms of peace was made clear and unmistakable in the Chamber of Deputies on June 5, when resolutions were adopted by a vote of 453 to 55 declaring that conditions of peace must include the liberation of territories occupied by Germany, the return of Alsace-Lorraine to France, and just reparation for damage done in the invaded regions. The resolution was subsequently endorsed by the Senate. It now appears that the dispatches concerning the issue by the British Government of passports to representatives of the minority Socialists in Great Britain were somewhat misleading. The passports permit them only to go to Russia, and were issued with the understanding that delegates would not proceed to the Stockholm Conference in Sweden.

The article presents developments related to the World War I in various parts of the world. The indications that the time has come for the assumption of a vigorous offensive by the French and British troops in France and Belgium appear to have been confirmed by the events of the past few days. Full credit has perhaps not been given to the loyalty of Russia to her allies in thus embarking on an isolated adventure, based on no general strategic plan, and foredoomed almost from the first to disaster, in order to assist the common cause. The article also focuses on the Russian official statement which though somewhat confusing in parts, enables us to gain a fairly clear idea of recent operations in Poland, from the German retreat from in front of Warsaw to the days immediately preceding the battle at Lodz.
