A Riga correspondent says that the Soviet Legation denies that M. Rykoff is visiting Berlin, and explains that he had gone to the Caucasus for health reasons, where Trotsky is also recuperating. The Lithuanian Government has heavily fined a. Kovno newspaper, at the instigation o£ the Bolsheviks, for printing a report that M. Rykoff has gone to Germany,
"Unemployment is increasing the seriousness of the Russian situation. Newspapers are enthusiastically discussing the prospects of a big cash loan from Britain, thus enabling the re-opening of hundreds of factories, and the re-em-ployment of thousands who are now starving. It is pointed out that the loan will not be of any benefit to Britain, because Russia' is determined to continue the present trade monopoly, compelling peasants to purchase only home manufactures.
