BRITISH SEEKING
TRADE Of RUSSIA
Work Out Plan to Capture
Commerce of NOn-bOI-
SheVik Area.

LONDON. June 2s.-Priti7h mer-
chants have devised a far-reach-
ing scheme. based to great ex-
tent on government insurance, for
capturing the trade of -bolshe-
vik Russia. They want 20 put their
goods into White" Russia before
the Germans have a chance 70 do
so but apart from agricultural ma
chinery on which the United states
already has the call. Enrland. by
this plan, could be far ahead Of
any other nation.
The department Of overseas
trade of the board OF trade which
is a government institution with "a
cabinet member at the head has
prepared a bill for submission 10
parliament providing that the gov
eminent shall set aside a fund Of
SIPS. 1000, 600 to finance the insur-
ance on the transported on of Brit
ish goods into Russia. Sir Arthur
Steel Maitland. head Of T. @ over
seas trade branch has heen select
ed 10 rGot the bill through the
commons.
The bill provides that merchants
shall be furnished with commercial
information regarding Russia that
regular sailinss shall be arranged:
that goods shall be insured and
that banks shall be enabled TO make
ordinary advance IS TO traders. Banks
could also issue warrants against
collateral security of insured goods
and the warrants would be valid
only for purchase of British goods
They would have a fixed value in
British money
Sponsors of the scheme point out
that the government. probably
would make a profit as was done
through the war risk insurance
scheme. That netted the govern
ment $4,000 900 profit.
