-Uifi. A message from Beuters was pub11shed In tne papers
here today that huge bodies of Soviet troops had been
entering Sirftiang since Russo-Japanese truce and. it is
understood that similar message had teen broadcast by the
.3. B. 0. rt apparently emanated from the Shanghai
correspondent of the New Yorh TimeSo Oovernment of
India would be grateful if steps could be taken to prevent
publication of news items of this description from British
sources unless fully authenticated as they tend to
increase rumours which are already sufficiently widespread
of impending Russian invasion of India,
fce nave no information here which would lead us to
suspect that the rumour is correct. We believe it to be
a gross exaggeration of minor assistance both in troops and
aircraft which the Soviet may be giving the Sinkiang
Oovemment in the Urumchi area.
