Berlin, Jan. 24, — (By Assoclated Fress)—Renunciation of the policy of sanctiong and pledges by Germany’s creditors, is essential to any successful reparations negatjations, in the opin- fon of the German government as set forth in a semi-official statement.

RUSSIA PREPARED it Carefully \Vll:ch Am‘lutla of All Other World Powers and Be Ready to Act, Official Declares. Moscow, Jan. 24 (By Associated Press).—Rugsia must be prepared and carefully watch the attitude of the world dowers toward her at the present time, said M. Kalinin, presi- dent of the all-Russian central exec- utive committee in addressing thou- sands of young communists at a mass meeting here yesterday. The attack upon Germany is like- wise an attack on the laboring mass- es,” he declared. “I must also men- tien the enmity being shown us by ¥ngland, who has demanded from Turkey at Lausanne free passage for British warships through the straits. This is also directed against Russia because it strengthens the elements of war of our enemies.” This clearly indicates that Russia must have a strong army and a strong navy, President Kalinin said. M. Rakovsky, who reeently returned from, Lausanne, spoke along similar lines. ! EVIDENCE OF GRAFT. Dry Agents, it is Hinted, “Have Been Shanind Down" Saloon Men.
