War threatens the Far East again because Chang Ching-hui, Chinese governor of the Harbin district of Manchuria, has seized the Chinese Eastern Railway, deposed its Russian officials, and deported several hundred Russians from Manchuria. Moscow has yielded to demonstrations of patriotic anger by its citizens and on July 13 sent an ultimatum to Naulcing, declaring that if the Chinese Government did not, within three days, agree to a conference for determining control of the Chinese Eastern the Russian Government would resort to other means of defense of the legal rights of the Soviet Union. At this writing Chinese and Russian troops are mobilizing on the Siberian border, but both governments are making gestures of conciliation.
