(Bpecial Correspondence of The Star and Chi- cago Dally News.) WARSAW, Poland, May 15.—Busli- ness with Russia is the all-absorbing topic of the coudtries bordering upon the soviet-controlled area. From the Baltic to the Mediter- ranean goods have been accumulated |and men are waiting to enter Russia and sell. Riga, Reval, Danzig, Stet- tin, in the north, are polints of de- | parture, while DMarseilles, Genoa, | Trieste, Salonik! and Constantinople, in the south, have warehouses 8tock- |ed with goods which the owners ex- | pect to dispose of in Russia at prices iapproaching those of war times. |, The center of the line is likewise haunted by visions of Russian riches and commercial men are watching {from Vilna, Lemberg, Czernowitz and | Bukharest. It fs like an invading jarmy waiting for the signal to 80 {over the top. American Plans to Walk. In Vienna I met an American who was on his way to Riga. His plan was to pack furs out of Russia on his back. He had done this in Alaska tand was asking how many miles it was from Petrograd to the coast. Some Austrian naval officers—Au- stria has no navy these days—have rigged up a motor schooner and are planning to carry goods to. Ode: In Vilna I met a number of man business men who were actually penctrating Russia but had not solv- ed the transportation problem. In Lemberg I came in contact with some Austrian Poles who were sin- cere in their belief Russia would prove a gold mine. One Important Shipment. After a long search I found some actual cases of trading. The Polish textile manufacturers in Lodz had shipped fifty carloads of various| cloths across the Polish-Russian frontier. This was the only import- |ant shipment I could find. The Czechs have delivered a small amount of goods to Russia, but only a small amount. It seems that the biggest movement | from the west to the east Is thel American Rellef Administration food train, which passes frequently from Danzig across Poland to Russia. The Poles tranaport - this food free of sian famine relief. Strangely, there are food shipments from Russia to Poland. This occurs | along the poverty-stricken frontier. ! where Ukrainian farmers smuggle {grain into Poland for the purpose of iobtaining the higher Polish exchange. | Prof. Einstein 18 right: everything {1s relative; and in Russla even the| | Polieh mark is better than the Rus-| i slan ruble. Rusatnns Have Little. { The frontier trade is very small, for | the Russians have little to give. There is a legitimate way of con- charge as their contribution to Rus- |Z Queting trading, for the Dcles are [ anxious to do business with Russia and areready toactasintermediaries ! 1t is possible to bring a Russian into i Poland for the purpose of supplying | [him with goods. This is the way it is done: A Pole | who has the confidence of his govern- ment meets the prospectivé Russian huyer at the frontier, brings him into Poland and transacts the businesa. While in Poland. the Pole is in charge . of the Russian and is responsible for him to the Polish government. This is to prevent the spread of bolshevist propaganda. When the transaction is compieted. the Pole escorts his| friend to the frontier. Tnere are also & few towns along | :the frontier where trading is carried {on In a amail way. These towns are the rail heads nearest the frontier. a Stoibzy. Pinsk and Rovno: the last named Is the most important. The | 2mount of trade is hardly worth con- stdering. | Once Exporter; Now Starving. | The truth is Russia has very little {to export. Before the war Russia was !a 1arge exporter of high quality flour; today Russia is starving. Before the war Russia exported immense quan- tities of wood: today it is possible ito obtain a little wood from the re- | gion adjacent to the Baltic, but' the | railroads can not transport wood from the Interior and the rivers ar ! blocked with sand. Most of the wood is now coming from Poland and Fin- {land. Before the war Russia exported large quantites of flax: today this production has dwindled until the British and the Czechs were forced} to compete for a very small amount which found fts way to Reval. It is thé same with the platinum and mustard from the Urals and th south. I am told some platinum is |drifting across the Polish frontie! Walk in Cantilevers Primitive people rode in ox-carts | {—heavy, rigid, without i 1 Modern love of comfort and spee brought about the easeful moto ‘car, traveling on springs so resilient iand balanced that we seem almost \to ride through the air—the mod- lern “Wings of Mercury.” i{ To a lesser degree, our feet in \daily life should act like the springs | iof the motor car, Nature composed | ithe human foot of resilient, flexible | larches to absorb the body shocks. {Nothing rigid about your foot as | Nature made it. ° In the words of a doctor, “The foot is'a cantilever spring.” THE. FLEXIBLE ARCH Does the arch of your shoe cor- respond with the arch of your foot in flexibility? Change to Cantilever Shoes. There is no concealed rigid metal embedded im the shank of Cantilever Shoes as in all ordinary shoes. They flex with your foot when you walk; permit the muscles to exercise and strengthen; allow free circulation; give room for all the toes. They give you complete -amfort and trim appearance. Wear the “Wings of Mercury.” That means: Wear Cantilever Shoes. Sold in Washington only by Cantilever Shoe Shon 1319 F Street N.W.

Russia’'s exports under the soviets are confined to typhus and cholera germs, coming through the Barano- vichi gate, and propaganda to reduce the world to the same condition of misery. As Hungary has shown, an agri- cultural country recovers very quickly under even a fairly tolerant regime; but until a practical policy is adopt- ed In Russia, there can be little talk of doing business with Russia.
