NEGOTIATIONS IN RUSSIA NEAR XD Rugso-German Protocol Thoughi {0 Be Clminating Result Berlin, Dec. 21 (UP)—The eco- nomic negotiations being conducted by the German government mission at Moscow were near completion to- day and it was expected in govern- | ment circles that they would culmi- nate in the sigring of a Russo-Ger- man protocol. Mutual concessions have hastened the agreement which is expected to improve the soviet's prospects of ob- talning new and substantial credits from Germany in 1929, Action Disapproved 1t was learned that the protocol will express the German govern- ment’s disapproval of the action of three German banks—Mendessohn, Bleichroeder and Diskonto—which at the end of September joined the international committee for the pro- tection of Russian bondholders then meeting in London. ! Soviet protests to the action of the three banks evoked private assur- ance that the banks were acting con- trary to the German government's wishes. The assurance has now been | embodied in a formal protocol. To Control Declaration The protocol was further under- stood to control a German declara- tion that the 366,000,000 marks 'FLASHES OF LIFE: TRAIN WOMEN Genevieve | Mach, poet and aviatrix, has been picketing a Br sklyn | agency wit.. a car labelled “My $2 | 000 Lemon.” The automobile also has been adorned with eight lemons d a verse about the make the agency sold her.

(app. $37,000,000) granted to Mos- cow helped increase German trade | with the soviet union. The declara- | tion is an admission which Moscow failed to obtain in the early stages of the negotiations. 1t will be recalled that Germany | ruptured negotiations with Moscow in March as a protest against the in- clusion of three Germans in the Donetz conspiracy trial in Moscoyw. The signing of the protocol is mainly intended to be interpreted as a Russo-German commercial treaty, However, the document contains several soviet concessions to the Ger- man viewpoint. For instance, one provision pledges that the soviet will use a certain amount of German shipping tonnage. The soviet yielded a point regarding the meaning of “commercial espionage” as an of- fense. The soviet interpretation had aroused German objections. To Visit Prisoners Moscow confirmed that eight Ger- man consuls should visit Germans held in soviet prisons and further- Sydney, N.
