W. Lyde, professor of grography in Londen university, and his assertions have aroused con- siderable interest in the new Baltte states. Latvia alone bought more Dritish goods last year than Soviet Russia, and Finland bought two and a half times as much from England as the Moscow government, Professor Lyde . maintains that very few of the English goods which enter the new Baltic states are trans-shippad into Soviet Russla. | Last year Soviet Russta took Eng- lish goods valued at about $12,500,- | 000. The Baltic states bought Brit- | ish mmlucu valued at $46,250,000, cal Muscovite Russia is too prtmm\a and limited n its buying | power to consume large quantitics of | western manufactured goods, accord- ing to the Engllish professor, who points out that much of the most | productive territory of the old Rus- | slan empire is now outside the soviet territory and that the agricul- tural area of European sovict Rus- sia Is over-populated. Professor Lyde says the loss of 10,000 to 30,000,000 persons and | of 250,000 to 306,000 square miles of“territory as a result of the war has not bettered soviet Russia's over | population situation, as there is much rich land in the lost domain. | he | to American grasslands, with which she } cannot compete in quantity or qaul- | ity, or even in price, and she exer~ cises no influence whatever on the world foo BOYS ARRESTED | Four Youths Held by Syracuse Po- lice on Charge of Having Stolen | Torty Motor Cars.
