ANGLO-RUSSIAN TREATY.
DENOUNCED BY VISCOUNT GREY. ONLY A MAKE-BELIEVE. FORCED CAPITULATION. (Australian ond N.Z. Cable Assn.) LONDON, Sept. 18. Speaking at the Edinburgh Liberal Club, Viscount Grey discussed the question of the proposed Russian loan. He said the Soviet Government was brought into existence by massacre, and maintained by espionage and executions. The present Russian Government had destroyed its country's productive capacity and, if they were going to pledge British credit to support the existing state of things, presently there would be no British credit to pledge. Vis*count Grey added that the treaty with Russia was not a real thing, but a make-believe. It was acclaimed in Russia as a forced capitulation by the British Government.
