JTn a message to the Daily Chronicle lie sums up the causes of Russia's debacle, attributing it to republican weakness' and Bolshevik vindictiveness.

He adds that Germans even in Bolshevik Russia are calmly buying banks, estates, ships_ and railways. The Bolsheviks appointed' Ganetsky to nationalise the Petrograd banks.
