BROWN - TO GO TO RIGA Release of Prisoners Is Considered Paramount Before Famine Work Starts. By the Associated Press. LONDON, August 2.—W. L Brown, European director of the American rellef administration, will start for |1 Riga next Friday for the purpose of negotiating a written agreement with representatives of the Russlan fam- ine committee, whereby the relief or- ganization can start feeding a mil- lian Russian children and invalids, it was announced here today. Herbert Hoover, chairman of the American relief administration, real- izing the delicate nature of the prob- lems which will confront the carry- ing out of relief in Russia, suggest- ed that Mr. Brown go to Riga, it is sald, and there develop very carefully an agreement covering all points men- tioned in Mr. Hogver’'s original condi- tions. Releasing of Priseners. ‘The question of American prisoners being released by Russia is considered paramount, and the American Rellef Administration has been ordered to make no move and to give no indica- tion_of acceptance of responsibility for Russian relief until these prison- ers are actually out of Russia and un- til a satisfactory written agreement has been arranged. It was emphasized that the release rs is belleved to be the sia. Upon the conclusion of the agreement at Riga the entire re- sources of the American Rellef Ad- ministration in Europe will be rected toward immediate Russian lef. Disposition of Workers. From the personnel of forty work- ers now in Europe a preliminary mis- sion of fifteen will be sent to Petro- re- grad and Moscow, where first relief will be rendered. The reserve sup- plies of the relief organization at Hamburg and Danzig, which have been accumulated for months with a view to the possibility of assistance to Russia, are considered sufficient to carry on the work until shipments arrive from erica. Although the entire question of re- lief hinges on the Riga conference, re- llef officials are of the opinion that the Russian attitude, as indicated in telegrams saying that relief is abso- lutely necessary, will be such that no stumbling-block will be placed in the path of the American organization. Task Not Dificult. It was stated tentatively that the relief of a million sufferers will not be a difficylt task, inasmuch as the American relief administration during one period of the war fed eight mil- lions in Europe, and fed five millions in Belgium for five years. ‘The methods of the organization in Russia may differ greatly from the relief carried on in Europe, for some information received here iIndicates that there are large stocks of grain even in the reported famine districts, the need being to introduce supplies and materials which can be bartered, so that peasants will reveal their hoardings and thus relieva Russia themselves.

The arrest was supposed to have occurred the dey before I saw Trotsky. I found him working in ac- cord with Lenin.” Sees Diplomats. Senator France conversed with a number of diplomats and several American business men here; they ex- pressed views differing widely from his relative to the honesty and effl- clency of the bolsheviki, but the sen- ator informed the correspondent that he was leaving tonight to carry on a fight for Russo-American relations and the extension of credit to Rus- sia, and that his views had not been changed. He still thought that the third in- ternationale could not harm America and that assistance for Russia would relieve the conditions which caused revolution. He estimated that the credit necessary for Russia’s immedi- ate needs would amount to $2,000,000,- 000, which he thought shouid Be in the form of en outright loan to the Russian government, instead of an advance on concessions. ‘While in Moscow Senator France falled to receive several telegrams and at least one registered letter forwarded there, and he said that some of his telegrams, which soviet officials promised to send to Riga, had never reached his secretary here. ether intercepted is not known in Riga.

Ryan, American Red Cross ocommissioner to the Baltic stats today sent a note to Leon ‘Trot war, asking for permission, owing to the probable release of the American prisoners in Russia, to send food to them at Moscow through a soviet courier. The request of Dr. Ryan bas been granted. M. Ganetsky, the soviet minister to Letvia, this afternoon sent by mes- senger to John B. Hurley, the Ameri- can consul, a note, written in the third person, to which was attached a copy of the reply of M. Kamaneff, head of the Russian famine relief commission, to Herbert Hoover's note giving the terms under which aid would be given the famine-stricken districts in Russia. Whether this note will serve as an official reply to the communication of Secretary of State Hughes is not known, but it marks the first official dealings be- tween an American official and the bolsheviki in Riga. Collecting Tak. ‘While the aid committes in Russia is doing its utmost for the immediate re- Hef of the starving population in the provinces stricken by famine, the soviet government is working to prevent a fail- ure next year in Russia’s grainary, Volga provinces. In order to accomplish this end, 12,000,000 poods (a pood is about thirty-six pounds) of grain for winter sowing must be delivered at the latest by September 1. Today will begin the difficuit task of collecting the natural tax, which will be’ the main source for securing seed grain, and on its success will depend the salvation of the most fertile grain belt in The area ‘where crops have proved a failure was to furnish 60,000,000 poods of the country’s 24,000,000 requirements by the natural tax, hence the scale of taxa~ tion will be raised in the fruitful prov- inces. - Migration of peasants from the famine districts, ‘where it is by the gove! ent, has been prohibited il | by an edict of the famine committes, ac- cording to the Moscow Pravda.
