BUSINESS FIRST IS NOW OBJECT OF THE SOVIET By Lloyd Allen, (United Press Staff Correspondent) London:—(By Mail)—Bolshevism has gone into business. For the time being, at any rate, the world-wide political propaganda of the Soviets has been side-tracked. Today the Soviet communistic leaders are searching world markets for machinery, textiles, locomotives to offer @ prize for thq most note- ! and repair paris for the crippled Rus- worthy elimbing, beth from the sport- | sian factories. They want some food d s at of view, o¢-|_canned goods mainly. Today Soviet Russia is actually buying goods in every highly ‘indus- trialized country: England, Germany, Italy and—from America, not IN America, as yet. This is a rough summary of what I learn from the Russian trade dele- gation here in London, the chief of which is Leonid Krassin; one time revolutionist, still a communist, but also a man “who believes in the reali- ties,” as Soviet attaches here say. In other words, Krassin is classed by his own pecple as a ‘“praciical idealist” as contrasted with the pure- ly theoretical communist of which Russia has her full share these days. One year ago Soviet Russia’s repu- tation here in London (except in la- bor circles) was blacker probably than in any other country in Europe. Today a marvelous transformation has takul‘l place. Soviet commission- ers may be seen any day hurrying to and fro in the business secgg:mg of Lamlqn, some of them riding in spanking brand - “new-—automobiles, It was decided o Olympic meet-| The prize will be attributed to or to groups. 1 to create a Union of Sporting Federation was not approved.

FOUR MEN ARE KILLED IN AIRPLANE ACCIDENT (By United Press) Modesta, Cal., July 1 —Fm:n' men | were killed here today in an airplane accident. The left wing of the planc crumbled when about 600 feet above hugging large portfolios of specifi- cations, busily engaged in ordering goods. for Russia. No longer is the bar of silence maintained between the Soviet dele- gation and the newspapers. Soviet communiques are issued with as much frecdom and more frequently than statements come from the old es- tablished embassies of France, Italy and other powers. Apparently, the majority of Lon- don has accepted the Soviet buyers as an immediate necessity. The Liberal English press and the Labor Party organs continually in- sist world reconstruction, and British papsperity is impossible unless Russia is opened up and ‘again resumes her place in the list of great buying and selling nations.. . Backed by the prestige of the Brit- ish foreign office and by a decision of the British courts, the Soviet dele- gation may' acquire, in any way it pleases, property, inside Russia and ship same to England. 9 Bluntly, :the ‘British have legalized confiscations in Russia; but certainly they do not encourage any such maneuver on the part of the Mos- cow government. Bulk of business opinion, and the verdict of the British diplomats would seem to be: Let’s straighten out the bygones in Russia somehow or other—but meanwhile we must not let past errors hinder the press- ing business of "rehabilitating com- mercial relations. England—in the midst of wide- spread trade depression—wants to sell goods and revive home prosperity. Russia, according to the Soviet rep- resentatives; is a’”great market and ‘offers gold and other credits as guar- antees for purchases. Briefly, the two nations are getting together commer- cially. France may protest; America may stand amazed at the spectacle ' of England fraternizing with the Soviet government—but. the Soviet delega- tion here is not worrying much. They confidently believe they will be trad- ing with the United States before | long; and they don’t care a rap about French protests. “France has nothing to sell,” the Soviet representatives says “She has only Rer enormous debts for money loaned the corrupt. Czarist govern- ment; much of which was used to maintain the grand dukes in profli- gate luxury. We will talk of these Frenc}n debts later—now we are pre- occupied trying to re-establish Russia of today. «rao - Ssat A ground.
