TREATY WITH RUSSIA A despatch from London sayszâ€". The new government has shown its‘ hand as regards its policy toward} Russia by publishing communications. addressed to M. Rakovsky, Soviet rep~ resentativc in London, in continuance of the correspondence on the famous Zinoviefl’ letter, so suddenly interruptâ€" ed by the downfall of the MacDonald, administration. Most ilnporiaï¬: is the somewhat curt notiï¬cation that the British GoVâ€" ernment does not intend to ratify the treaties concluded with the Soviet Government by the MacDonald min- istry. A suggestion was made in Russian quarters for the renewal or re-opening of the negotiations but apparently fro)" the tone of the correspondence this is a closed chapter so far as the Baldwin Government is concerned, and any further initiative in this di»’ rection must come from the Sovieti Government. It is assumed, hoax-ever," that there is no idea of going back on , ducted recognition of the Soviet. accorded by the MacDonald administration. Concerning the Zinovieii affair, the Government stands on the authenticity of the Zinovieff letter and in compaix atively mild terms reiterates the stric~ tures against Soviet propaganda l'llfllil'.‘ by former Premier MacDonald. The activities complained of. it is pointed out. “are not conï¬ned to that particular letter (the Zinovieff letter». C but on the contrary extend to ti: whole body of revolutionary prolaâ€" ganda of which the letter is a fair specimen and which is sometimes can- in secret and sometimes, as you rightly i'enizfl‘ked. not concealed." Foreign Secretary Chamberlain's letter to .\l. Rnkovsky regarding the Russian treaties is quite brief, merely stating that the Government had the treaties under review and, after due deliberation found it was unable to recommend them to the consideration of parliament or submit them to the King for ratiï¬cation.
