This has been made possible through growth of bank deposits, which exceeded 1,000,000,000 rubles, or double the figure of 1924. The government appreciated the im- portance of foreign credit in accelerat- ing trade revival, and was ready to make concessions which were not in conflict with the interests of national economy. Settlement of the interallied debts, he declared, would be simple without participation of the Soviet Union. The commissar said that next year's budget estimated the excise duties from alcoholic liquors at 100,000,000 rubles. The present production of - | alcohol amounted to only 5 per cent of i the pre-war production, and the tend- ency of the government was to dimin- ish the production of alcohol. * e e ———y ittt it D.
