Btuart, mining engineer drafted to direct Russia's extensive coal survey, sald n an interview today that the Soviet gov- ernment is striving to imitate not only American industrial methods, but also American standards of living. Mr. Stuart is in New York from hls‘ semi-annual visit to Russia. | He declared that the most impor-! tant step taken by the Soviet govern-| ment in recent months was the estab- lishment of a competitive basis between | the state-owned industries of Russia. This means that rather than being sub- ! sidized by the government treasury, the | Soviet industries henceforth must make their own way in much the same way that private business corporations do in the United Stutes, he explained. Looks to U. S. for Guidance. “If imitation is a form of fattery, | the United States may feel highly | complimented for having furnished | many of the motives actuating the Soviet government in its efforts to speed up the industrial development of Russia,” he sald. : “Back of the gigantic electrification rogram which Russia has inaugurated & the feeling that the vast industrial strides made by the United States are in good measure due to its electrical facilities. Similarly in the develop- ment of its coal industry, Russia is looking to the United States for | guidance and advice.” Declaring that the world need not fear a wholesale “dumping” of Russian goods on the international markets for many years to come, Mr. Stuart said: “Russia today 1is exporting only what is essential to pay for purchases made in other countries. For every dollar’s worth of foodstuffs, grain, or other products exported from Russia, & dollar’s worth of machinery or ma- terials not produced in Russia is being imported, principally from the United States, Germany and England.” Coal Shortage Threatens. Reviewing the report which his firm recently made to the Supreme Eco- nomic Council of the Soviet govern- ment, Mr. Stuart declared that the threatening shortage of coal is the major industrial problem confronting Russia today. Russia’s coal production has lagged behind its industrial expansion, with the result that there is a serious dln-, ger of insufficient fuel to run the very industries it has hastened to build up ung:; the famous five-year plan, he added.

CHICAGO. July 15.—Edward Swan- son who is 87 years old and weighs 310 pounds, was accused by police yester- day of trying his hand at a holdup, but his experience seemed to bear out the old expression about nobody loving & fat man. Amid the hue and cry that arose | following the holdup of two places of business, policemen started in pursuit of three men, one of whom they said ‘was Swanson. i Swanson leaped onto a laundry truck driven by Mussy Survetio. He pushed a pistol into Survetio’s ribs, but Sur- vetio started to laugh. i “Get off,” he shouted. “You're so fat you're funny”: with which remark: he pushed Swanson into the street. Policemen later found the fugitive sprawlinig in a chair, sans shoes and shirt, in a bullding. Seemingly he was a tenant taking a sun bath.

LONDON, July 15.—Great Britain's: crime problem, Lord Justice Mc Cardie said at the opening of the Birmingham Assizes today, is more serious than at any other time during the past 60 years. “Modern criminals,” he sald, “are more ingenious and astute. Perhaps the greatest feature of recent years is that the number of boys under 16 victed of indictable offenses was chvge_oter in 1929 than in 1907.” TAILORED AWNINGS {INSURE SATISFACTION o gebiinede U SEMlh BRI, L g estimates cheerfully and willingly CORNELL WALL PAPER CO. - ve - All 3-Piece Were ' Tropical Worsted Suits -3 $29:7 No Charge for Alterations Sidney West = 14th & G Sts.
