RUSSIAN FORCES MOBILISED. ON RUMANIAN FRONTIER. (Received 22, 12.45 p.m.) London, Sept. 21. How Russia proposes to utilise the Turkish victory to make friends with Mohammedan peoples and force the Allies to recognise the Soviet republic, has been revealed by a secret circular, published by the “Times,” addressed by Karakhan, Foreign Minister at Moscow, to representatives abroad.

The circular, which is marked “very secret,” summons a conference of these representatives at Berlin at the end of September to arrange a common policy. The circular does not mention military measures in favour of Turkey, but Russia has. already mobilised her forces on the Roumanian frontier, which are available either to keep Roumania neutral or for an advance on Thrace to co-operate iii.the Turkish invasian, but it is by no means certain, says an article in the “Manchester Guardian,” that Russia will be content with helping Turkey to recover Constantinople.
