RUSSIAN DISSENSIONS.
1 WARFARE IN CENTRAL ASIA. INSURGENT LEADER SHOT. LONDON, Aug. 21. Despite the Soviet reiteration that the Central Asian riots have been quelled, Commissar Kuzmin asserts, says the Riga correspondent of the Times, that though the situation is improving guerilla warfare is continuous. Red troops at Tashkend, Ferghana, Samarkand, and Merv, in an endeavour to suppress the insurgents, shot one of the leaders. A second surrendered after a battle, and a third retired wounded. The Berlin correspondent of the Times says that, the Communists have ejected Ruth Fischer, the veteran 'Communist, and also Herr Maslow, and two members of the Prussian Diet, Loussau and Loquongen, for criticising Stalin and the Moscow dictators and for attempting to organise a separate party. They have demanded that Fischer, who is a member of the Reichstag, and Loss'au and. Loquen shall resign their seats. They have also ejected the Communist member of the Reichstag, Tiedt, for publishing an unsavory newspaper, The Unmarried, which they say would bring discredit on Communism.
