Soviet Russia Is Pushing ; Its
Friendships in the Near East
RIGA, Latvia, June 4J (Correspond
ent Associated Press!) Recent arri
vals from Moscow declare that the
world little realizes how closely so
viet Russia is pushing its friendship
with the near east.
In Moscow now the Turkish legation
occupies one of--, the most sumptuous
of the old palaces and the personnel,
garbed in faultless European clothes,
presents a strange contrast to the
poorly garbed Muscovites. The Af
ghans and other near eastern delega
tions also occupy .luxurious quarters,
give elaborate banquets and other
wise carry on with . all the pomp of
the old eastern courts.
Members of Lenine's government are
frequently, guests at these affairs and
entertain tle legation personnels
equally lavishly in return.;
Besides "this, Lenine has so accom
modated himselt to the psychology of
the east that he now exchanges pres
ents with the rulers of Turkey, Per
sia, etc., as did the rulers of ancient
days.
A Moscow dispatch today reads like
a paragraph from what might have
been . an ancient tablet of heirogly
phics describing the vlsilt of a Boby
lonian envoy to King Cyrus of Per
sia, it says: "The representative of
the soviet government has made his
first official visit to the shah of Per
sia, presenting to the shah on a golden
salver an album with photographs of
soviet leaders of the whole of 'Rub-1

A man who recently arrived .from
Moscow said: '.'Few persons realize
what a close connection now exists
between Russia and its. , old .""enemy,
Turkey, and for that matter all of
the -near east. N Lenine ,1s accomplish
ing here what the old ..Russian gov
ernment, could not do by . playing up
to eastern psychology. -
."The sorcalled bolshevisnv in these
eastern countries is nothing at all
like the bolshevlsm of Moscow hut in
each case the Russian- agitators, have'
a distinct brand pt propaganda de
signed to dovetail -wtth - ancient cus
toms of the country in question. For
Instance, . in regions where the trade
in . bazaars is a century old custom
no agitation . against free trade has
been, made." . ,
