nature: a Russian Orthodox Church functions at the same
location. It is believed to be completely anti-Communist,

of Members:
This organization is relatively inactive. Its president,
Jevdenije Balabin, is also the president of other small,
unimportant anti-Communist White Russian groups, such
as the U ion de los I.nvalidos, the Union de los Guerreros,
and the .tion de las Organizaciones Zaristas. The ultimate
result of these small groups is a weakening of the effective-
ness of the other anti-Communist Russian organizations.
This international organization does not exist legally
in Chile .jiut Solidarist members there are in contact
with thpifiead office in Frankfurt, Germany, and with
oth 15ranches. They anticipate an organization of the
Chilean branch on a more practical basis soon. It is
at present the most active and most anti-Communist of the
Russian organizations in Chile.
There have been some indications that the Communists have
penetrated this organization.
