TCHITCHERIN INTERVIEWED.
PARIS, May 11. M. Tchitcherin, interviewed regarding the Russian reply, said: We have now gone as far as possible in the direction of concessions. The expression of opinion which came from Russia was too imperative for us to go beyond a certain limit. An unmistakable opinion was constantly expressed by our workers on the question of nationalisation without compensation. The matter had provoked considerable feeling in Russia and the Government had been inundated with resolutions from local Soviets Workers’ Assemblies, and army regiments. The army was a strong political force. It must not be forgotten that the period of intervention and invasion had the result of attaching the peasants and
workers closer to the present regime, which had. become for them the symbol of complete national independence. *
