Latest advices from Moscow bliqw that the success in Poland has completely restored the confidence. of the Bolsheviks and revived their firm demands for international recognition of the Soviet.
The newspaper Pravda insists on the right of the Bolsheviks to dictate peace in Warsaw, and virtually Bolshevise Poland.
An article in the newspaper Azvestia declares that the Soviet is only willing to deal with Western European Governments on a footing of perfect equality, and does not accept the dictation of England, who ,it declarer, over-estimates her powers, and does not hold the full confidence of tho Allies.
Krassin, writing in the Krasnaya Gazette, says Russia is quite prepared to sign a general peace on a basis of recognition of the Soviet, and would .only resume trade thereafter. Trotsky is also busy writing in the newspapers vaunting the successes of the Bolshevik arms, which he asserts arc unaided by a single German officer.
