The American polic e Far East is therefore at the incipient stage. Mr. Kellogg does not feel like deciding the questions in- volved without having a comprehen- sive talk with the President. In a sense the whole world is wait- ing on American initiative in the Chi- nese situation. Ever since the days of John Hay, the American Depart- ment of State has pursued a policy of friendship for China for which has in many cases amounted to mediation betyeen China and European as well as Asiatic powers. The famous prin- ('lpl-~ of the “open door"” in commer- development was an American ¢ .\.Hu that has done much to keep the powers from diminishing the sovereignty of China. Although the revolution has complicated the ¢-ob- lem in th last sever: vears, she United States has endeavored to sup- port the central government in Pek- ing in the hope that ultimately the rious elements in China might rein- Unity Is Sought.

The incident illustrates, however, how sensitive the Mexican authorities are about the state of mind of the hington Government, particularly after the last public statement the’ issuance of which was prompted by the visit to th' White House of Am- bassador Jamew R. Sheffield. Mr. Sheffleld is to return to Mex. ico City In August. Before he goes he expects to see Secretary Kellogg and probably President Coolidge.

The Secre- tary of State plans to spend a few days here and then go to Washing- ton.

C., SATURDAY, JULY 11, BOOM IN SOVIET TRADE FOREGAST 1924 Volume Exceeded Pre- War Record, Commerce De- partment Officials Report. Despite the diplomatic breach be- tween the governments at Washing- ton and Moscow and the complete absence of the usual official agencies for promoting commercial intercourse, Russian-American trade continues on the increase. Comimerce Départment figures for the calendar year 1924 record a total export and import business with Russia amounting to $49,000,000, while statistics compiled, by the Russian information bureau’ here reach the higher figure of $55,900,000. The showing leads officials of the bureau to_predict a 1925 total of upward of $75,000,000, compared to an average annual _interchange amounting to about $45,000,000 before the World War. Trade agencies set up in the United States by the Russian government and by various Russian industrial groups have supplied the machinery through which this vast trade is car- ried on. In some measure these agencles have taken the place of the consular agents, who are missing be- cause of the failure of the United States Government to officlally re- celve any emissaries of the Soviet. Trade Agencies Established. The trade machinery thus pro vided has its hub in New York City, where several Russian commercial agencies maintain headquarters. The system is described by the Russian information bureau as follows In principle, Soviet foreign trade is a monopoly vested in the people’s commisariat of foreign trade. In practice the commisariat confines itself to regulatory supervision and the actual trading is carried on by various commercial organizations, in some of which foreign private capi tal is allled with Soviet capital The principal agency for general trade in the United States is the Amtorg Trading Corporation, incor- porated in New York State with a paid-up capital of $1,000,000 and with both Russians and Americans among its officials. It represents directly most of the great Russian monopolies, including the coal, sugar and electri cal trusts. Its 1924 trade turnover amounted to $17,000,000. Next in importance is Centrosoyuz- America, Inc., which is the trading agency of the Central Union of Rus sian Consumers’ Co-operatives, a group representing millions of mem bers. Last vear it handled more than $4,000,000 worth of business, | mostly in furs imported from Russia. The Russian Union of Agricultural Co-operatives likewise maintains its trading agency in the United States It is called the Selskoysuyus, but its turnover is comparatively small. An | other trading medium is the Allled American Co., which represents 3% American commercial firms in Russia and last year handled a $§4,000,000 business. Assigned to Temponry Posts. Second Lieuts.

For two years the furriers of W ashington, co-operating with the Better Business Bureau, have advertised fur trade names frankly and clearly so that the public will know what fur is really used. " In this way public be- lief and confidence have been built in the fur trade and in fur advertising. Beginning this month, fur dealers will again offer to the public Summer and August fur sales. Again they will qualify all trade names so that no one can possibly be misled and so that even greater confidence will be built in the great fur industry. The furriers of Washington want you to remember that ““Hudson Seal” is dyed muskrat. Many other imitations of the genuine Alaskan sealskin are dyed coney or rabbit.
