That is already vaguely foreshadowed, - Britain and France are steadily closing the door against the possibility possi-bility of Russian aid in the war against . Germany, possibly because be-cause the ' government of Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain in London considers Communism a worse enemy than Nazism. A more immediate cause for the Allied aUtude is, that Russia definitely defi-nitely has demonstrated that she does not intend to aid Britain or France, and in the fact that Russia's Rus-sia's efforts to capitalize on the European war by extending her defensive frontiers has aroused the anger and fears of her small neighbors, which may be persuaded persuad-ed by that fear to cast their lot more definitely with the Allies.
