Trace Reverses Stand On Blockade
 Against Soviet Russia

PARIS, Nov. 26. = Premier Georges Leygues today informed the Committee on Foreign Rela- tions of the Chamber of Depu- ties that he favors abolition of the blockade against Russia.
 The Premier declared that in- asmuch as the Russian Soviet Government is actually operat- ing, the French Government has decided to permit French trad CTS and manufacturers to do all possible business in Russia.
 The decision represents "a complete reversal of Frances at titude heretofore. Repudiation by the Bolsheviki regime of the millions of Russian bonds issued by the late CZar's Government and largely held in France caus- ed extreme bitterness here. The Government has resolutely ad- hered to its stand that the So- wet Government was nOn-eXiSt- ent and no earlier than this week voiced this stand by de- claring that it felt no interest in the Siberian concessions re- gently granted Washington Van derlip, representing an Ameri- can syndicate, because so far as France was concerned, the Russian Government does not exist.

Soviet to Abolish Money
 Flood US. With Bogus Bills
Moscow Government Planning Moneyess Period Beginning January l-Bolshevki Attempting to Use Counter
 felt Funds to Finance U S. Revolution

ANTWERP, Nov. 26-The Coun- cil of Peoples Commissioners of So- viet Russia has directed the Russian Soviet Finance Commissioners to prepare a plan within a month for abolishment of money, according to advices from Moscow received here today. The despatches stated that it is expected the moneyless period will be decreed effective from Janu- ary l.
 Attempts Of Bolshevik agents to get through to America with count erfeit money, made in Moscow, which is believed they planned to in the United States, have been dis covered and, perhaps, thwarted by American Government agents in Central Europe.
 Widespread Plot.
 In connection with what officials believe to be very carefully organ ized scheme to encourage strikes, unrest and promote bolshevism in luC hltCo ctdtCc, uiiNSt IT oLi AhOo COW, evidence has been secured of plan to send to the United States bogus paper currency of several European nations, to be changed there into valid banknotes or securi ties.
 Four men, coming direct from Moscow, who sought to go to Amer ica, were known to have had in their possession counterfeit French banknotes representing more than $100,000.
 The Moscow scheme, according to changing in one country of the false counterfeit money of another on the theory that bankers are not par ticularly familiar with the appear anee of foreign currency.
 Bogus Money Passed.
 A considerable amount of this bogus money is believed to have been passed successfully in America, as recently, number of Polish bol sheviki agitators, returning to Pc land from America for the purpose, it is believed, of promoting Bolshe- vism behind the lines of the Polish army which was fighting the reds, have had in their possession thou sands of dollars in American cur rency, thought to have been secured in exchange for bogus foreign bank notes in America.
 f scheme is an exceedingly ingenious, double-acting one," said one police official who has been following it. The Kremelin theory is that this queer stuff when changed. provides good money for Bolsheviki uses, and, at the same time. by flooding the world with bad money, sends prices sp, creates unrest and makes things riper for the big revolution Lenine is looking for"
