had not been advised Altogether, .$150, 900 had come to him through me underground route, and also an m struction. so he said, not to spend any of the money "on politics or the sutsport pl lnleTnaI factions or par ties in the United States | A list of contracts for goods enkeE- ed into by Martens was submitted py the committee with the. explanation e that the firms named had agreed to furnish the goods only upon condition that they were given licenses by the state department to export the pro- ducts to> Soviet Russia. The largest contract cited was for $4590s0UV worth of printing presses to be fur nished by the Lehigh Machine Com pany of Lehighton, Pa.
 Only SIC ,O0U had been paid on the contracts, Martens sad, and none of the goods had been shipped.
 You depended on the relations opened with American business con | cerns to help you get recognition! Chairman Moses asked.
 Yes Martens replied. adding. that he knew of many letters and repre- sentations made by Americans frientl- l ly to the Soviet government to Amer 1 ican officials and speaking particH- l larly of lat least two which went to 1 President Wilson from individuals i who, he minated, would likely se- i cure a hearing.
 i This was Martens second appear | ance before the committee and his examination will be resumed at the 1 next session which will be called by i Chairman Moses after Wade H. Ellis, attorney employed to conduct the in-
 Yestigation, has recovered from his i illness.
 At the outset of the hearing to- i day Former Senator Hardwick, of ] Georgia, counsel for the ''arnbassa- ] dor.'' told the committee that Martens would present true copies of all com- munications between himself and the l Soviet government but that it was desired that some of the letters be 1 considered in executive session as it 1 might involve the safety of persons 1 who have kept open the lines of com munication between Martens and his
 government.
 Before the committee continues the inquiry it will decide whether to
 grant the request fo ran exeeutiYe
 session and also. whether it will re- quite Martens to give the names of
 the couriers carrying communications
 between himself and his government.

 Munson also asked the committee to consider the plight of the 130 or more ship yards in the United States which would face bankruptcy, he put it, when government contracts expired. If private ownership was allowed to get established now, he sail, the yards would be kept busy in building spe- cial types of ships 10 round out the existing merchant marine.
 There is a shortage of the express type of combination passenger and freight boats.' he said, especially in the far eastern trade. That service will develop greatly in my judgement, during the next few years if Amer jeans establish lines out of Pacific ports and compete with the Japanese
