than fifty years of life in Russia,
are stu a tremendous power there.
despite the fact that in many in
stances they have been nationalized
by the Soviet government
Just prior to the rise Of Soviet
government there were $4,000 CO.

a membership Of 100000. They
were divided into three groups
the consumers co-operatives, the

1t is from this last group that
officials say comes the only hope
for development of Russian trace.
The principal means of operation
for the credit co-operatives is the
Moscow Narodny (People's) Bank,

numerous individual credit co-op-
eratives throughout Rpssia. A re-

the Department of Commerce says
that management and control OF
this institution have remained in
the hands OF the co-operatives, due
to the fear of Soviet leaders to
antagonize the CO operatives too
far.
Figures for 1919 show that this
bank in that year loaned to vari-
Gus cooperative organizations
900, ,000.000 rubles. The turnover of
