Principal figures In bringing to an end the three and one-half month war between Finland and Russia
were (left to right) Viacheslav M. Molotoff, Soviet foreign commissar; Rysto Ryti, premier of the Repub
lic of Finland; and Dr. Juho Faasikivi, Finland's outstanding expert on Russo-Flnnish affairs. Ryti and
Molotoff headed the groups that agreed upon terms of a peace treaty between the two countries. Russia's
grip over the northern Baltic was virtually clinched by the terms of the peace treaty reached with Finland.
Terms of the treaty were considered by authorities to be much harsher than pre-war Russian demands.
