BRITAIN ACCUSED.

ATTACK ON SOVIET. -

Believed To Be Behind Polish Assassination. j REMAEKABLE DOCUMENT. (By Cable— Press Association.—Copyright.) j MOSCOW, June 9. Demonstrations of protest against the \ oikoff murder took place in all j the large cities of Russia yesterday. Demonstrators, officially 'stated to ' nave numbered several hundred thmisands, marched past the Foreign Affairs Oftieo in Moscow from 3 p.m. until late last night. At all the demonstrations resolutions! were passed laying emphasis on the j alleged close connection between the ; murder and Britain's anti-Soviet policy, | also demanding a dissolution of the YUiite Guard organisations alleged to ■ exist in Poland. An amazing document has been issued i which accuses Britain and other foreign I Powers of persistent terrorism and at- i tacks on the Soviet. Preparing Fcr War. It says: "It is very evident that while ! Britain is rapidly preparing for war j against the Soviet she is at the same ' time striving to prevent a continuance j of the peaceful labours or the Russian People's Government. "We pull on the toiling masses to protect dieir country's industries against i foreign spies, incendiaries and murderers. I With your support we will clear out our ! enemies."'

The supposed facts quoted in the statement go back to 1925. It is alleged that the spy Steinberg, who was shot on the frontier, was really a captain in the British Air Force who had personal instructions from Mr. Winston Churchill.

Another charge mentions Mr. White, of the British Consulate at Moscow, in connection with the instigation of the Kremlin explosions. There is a long list of suggestions that other bomb outrages were of British or French origin. It is also alleged that Finnish and Estonian incendiarists were agents of Britain.— (A. and X.Z. and Sydney "Sun.")
