The lightning rapidity and importance of events in Central Europe that have led to the disappearance of Czechoslovakia as an independent Republic have stirred the Russian colony in greater measure, perhaps, than other Shanghailanders. In the first place, Russians are certain that ihe occupation of Moravia and Bohemia predestinates the German march on Soviet Ukraine. In the second, many Russians remember the Czechs' in connection with the civil war in Siberia of 1918-1920. Gen.
Sirovy, for instance, is well remembered by many Russian officers in this city. Gen. Voitsekhovsky, a Russian General who went over to service under the Czechs, was, until the last, military commander of the district.' But even those Russians who cannot remember without regret the position and behaviour towards the White Army adopted by the Czechs twenty years ago, and thei part in the surrender of Admiral Koltchak to the Bolsheviki, abstain from commentaries either verbal or written, appreciating the drama being experienced by all local Czechs, It is said that the Russian people are just as great-hearted and able to forget past injuries as the Chinese, The truth of this-statement should be best judged' by others.
