RECALLED TO RUSSIA
SOVIET OFFICIALS IN
LONDON
MUCH SPECULATION
LONDON, November 15,
The "Daily Mail" says speculation! is rife regarding the future of Soviet Embassy officials in London who hava just been recalled 'to Russia, where the second secretary, M. Anton Schuster, has been for a fortnight. Those recalled are M. Lev. Chikunski, naval attache.- M. A. K. Sivkov, military attache, and M. Ivan Cherney, air attache.' The last two succeeded M. Putna, who,' after being recalled, died in gaol, branded as a Trotskyist. The "Daily Mirror" says that the Soviet Ambassador,' M. Maisky, is expected to leave London' for Leningrad next Friday. The paper connects the recall of M. Maisky's attaches .;w}th M. Stalin's purge, and says M. Maisky, might refuse to go, but he has a daughter living in Russia, and it is thought her safety will dictate his obedience to orders.
