Russia's

most
influential
newspapers,

Pravda,
praised
the
results
of
the
conference
which
ended
with
agreements
on
the
atomic
question
and
other
vital
problems.
Chinese
quarters
hailed
the
accords,
particularly
the
agreements
involving
China
which
were
viewed
hopefully
as
ensuring
Chinese
sovereignty
over
Manchuria
and
enhanced
prospects
of
peace
and
unity.
Agreement
upon
the
withdrawal
of
United
States
and
Russian
troops
at
the
earliest
practical
moment
was
interpreted
as
meaning
that
fitst
there
is
bound
to
be
delay
in
Russian
withdrawal
from
Manchuria
and,
second,
that
United
States
troops
will
withdraw
iv
as
soon
as
the
Japanese
are
disarmed
and
repatiiated.
The
Japanese
viewed
with
surprise
and
dismay
the
decision
for
the
establishment
of
a
four-power

for
Japan
which

most
of

regard
as
