DAILY WORKER, NEW YORK, TUESDAY, Jl DRESS HINTS AT ECOGNITION OF 1.8, 8. R. SOON Prospective Shift of Trade to Britain Forcing Hoover Hughes Sees Light Trade Delegation Goes to Moscow in August The metropolitan press of New rork, close to the financial lords of {the country, has within the last few days begun to hint more and more plainly at recognition of the Union f Socialist Soviet Republics by the Upited States. The reasons are vffre or less frankly stated as the ire to prevent the shifting of the growing trade of the Uni with the Union of So Soviet Republics to England. if MacDonald » and re-establishes ations between London 1 States diplomatic r and Moscow, The New York World states flatly in its yesterday’s issue that Pr ient Hoover has told important recognition is on the way. The World veports on trade with the U. S. S. R. as follows: Trade Need Decisive. “Russia imported $96,717,000 of American goods and materials last year, including $54,000,000 in cot- ton, $15,000,000 in agricultural equipment, $11,600,000 of industrial machinery and close to $3,000,000 of automotive equipment and metais. “Southern senators with an eye to the cotton market, farm bloe members seeking an outlet for the crop surpluses and others formerly hostile to iI cognition have under- gone a contiderable change of atti- tude in the last year or two. Even Mr. Hughes, who rejected every Soviet overture and stressed the \ sie of “Bolshevik propaganda,” been reported as altering his 's since he retired to } rivate life. Hughes is now ctunsel for andard Oil of New York, which yi2s eontracted to buy about $10,- 100,000 of Russian oil pro § an- sually, and in this relationship he as had a different aspect of the »sroblem presented to him. .! “The fact that Ramsay MacDon- ald proposes ta recognize Russia again, frankly on the grourid of ex- pediency, has had its influence here, i! pressing officials who keep a close atch on trade rivalry with Great 3ritain. Germany, benefited by for- ‘al relations, has so far had the eam of the trade. Great Britain stood next up to 1927, but after her rupture following the Arcos raid she dropped back. Her export to Russia fell off 65 per cent. “The president is reported to be impressed by the same practical and expedient aspect of the matter that has motivated the British premier.” 3 U. 8. Opposes Tour. he department of state has given a@surance to the American business men’s tour of the Soviet Union that they go with the full consent and approval of the U. S. government. 400 WORKERS AT TENANT MEETING Exposes Rent Hogs and Preacher Tools At a meeting of the Harlem Ten- ants’ League in the Harlem public library last night, Richard B. Moore, | president, addressing over 400 Negro workers, exposed ‘the alliance of the profiteering landlords and the gos- pel-peddlers who in some cases are rent hogs in their own right and urged the affiliation of the league with the revolutionary working class | organizations. A number of such bodies, including the American Negro Labor Congress, the United Council of Working Women and several left wing unions have already thrown their support to tie league, Moore pointed out. meeting of the house commit- tfss charged with conducting the rent strike in their respective apart- ment houses has heen called for this Saturday. In addition, the league expects to hold a mass meeting prior to the city nominating convention, at which working class delegates to the convention will be elected and plans for linking up the housing sit- uation with the forthcoming elec-. tions more thoroly worked out. Campers at Wocolona Give $44.20 to Daily J. Louis Engdahl, editor of the Daily Worker, yesterday addressed the group of class-conscious workers gathered at Camp Wocolona for the week-end on the revolutionary press, giving a short history of the work- ing class newspapers of. Germany and Russia and comparing their uggles with those of the Daily orker, the only English language daily. Rebecca Grecht in a plea for sup- port of the Daily’s $50,000 emer- gency campaign fund, succeeded in raising $44.20 among the campers with pledges for additional sums. CARPENTERS UNITE.
