MOSCOW, December 18.—Although the American State Department and the Sovlet government are not on speaking terms, the Americans sold to Russia in 1925 three times as much as in the pre-Soviet days, as shown by statistics issued yesterday. American imports for the year are valued at $102,000,000, of which $50,- 000,000, Tepres otton, $33,000,000 tlour, grain and foodstuffs, and $14, (00,000 machinery and similar ar ticles. This is four times the 1924 vol- ume. England and Germany are the near- est_competitors of the United States with exports to Russia of $75,000,000 and $65,000,000, respectively. Dyring 1925 Russian exports to the United States amounted to only $11,- 000,000, of which $4,000,000 was in manganese ore. Blanto Bill Copies Received.

VIENNA, December 18 (P).—Ad- vices from Prague, Czechoslovakia, say that pandemonium was created yesterday by the German National- ists, the Communists and the Slova- kians, when Premier Svehla and his new cabinet entered Parllament. The Germans demanded a cessa tion of the wholesale dismissals of German civil servants; the Commu- nists wanted Tausik, one of their elected members now in prison, lib- erated and the Slovakians pressed the autonomy question. The opposition groups effectively drowned out the opening address of Premier Svehla. Would Allow Collective Purchases. A Dbill to enable co-operative asso- ciations of American manufacturers to cngage in collective purchase of raw materials in foreign markets was introduced in the Senate yesterday by Senator Capper of Kansas.
