Kemal Avers Trotzky Must Live in Embassy London, Feb. ()—The Daily Ex- press today printed a dispatch from Moscow which said that although Leon Trotzky, deposed soviet leader, ‘would be exiled from Russia, he would be forced to reside on Russian terri- ry.

To prevent such a happening he has notified the soviet government that Turkey will consent to Trotzky’s living within its borders only if he will reside in Angora, instead of Constan- tinople, and will be provided quarters at the soviet empassy, which is re- garded by international law as an integral part of Russia.

Chicago, Feb. 2—(#)—At the mo- ment, @ large majority of operators are optimistic in to present prices of butter being maintained for the immediate future. The reasons given include very light storage holdings, moderate visible be vegaeed ‘supplies, practically no possibility o: imports, and above all the great buy- ing power of the public. Meanwhile, arrivals of butter are lighter as compared with a week or a, ago. Prolonged cold weather and ice- covered roads have curtailed deliv- eries of cream to factories, and ap- parently likewise reduced milk pro- duction. On the other hand, prevail- ing low prices for cheese are discour- aging or en of milk LA beysoord fac- tories and encouraging deliveries to butter factories.
