RUSSIA NOT PREPARED
FOR EXPORT BUSINESS

| CONSTANTINOPLE. - Russia's
liability to export raw materials in the
near future has been greatly overesti-
mated by foreign countries in the
opinion of Colonel b. Englehard, for
merIy a member of the Russian Duma
and student of economic conditions
lin Russia before and after the revo-
Tuition. In a talk with the Associated
Press correspondent he said that for
eigners seem to fail to realize the col
lapse of the Russian transportation
systems. reduced manpower and run
down condition of the Russian farm
lands.
| This comment was evoked by re-
ports of the negotiations of Russian
economic agents with Premier Lloyd
George in London and the annouce-
ment that the United States had lifted
prohibition upon American trade with
/ Soviet Russia.
Colonel Englehard is confident that
Russia will again play an important
role in European markets but. he said.
l'the revival of Russia trade will not
come until there shall be established
normal state of life when men shall
renounce attempts of establishing i'm
lmediately the paradise of communism.
1T should be borne in mind that
European Russia has been greatly re-
duced in size," said Colonel Engle-
hard. Formerly it had over 5000
900 square kilometers of land and
157 900. 900 inhabitants. Poland, Fin
land, a great part of the Caucacus and
| several Baltic provinces, with about
| so, 900, 900 inhabitants and about l.
$50, 900 square kilometers of land have
detached themselves. The greater
part of these detached territories or
dinarily had notable surplus of grain
and other farm products which constl-
tuted the major part of Russia's ex-
ports.
''In 1918. the last year when condi-
t!ons were normal in Russia, exports
were valued at 800. 100000 gold ru-
bles, pr $3.50. 100000. The greatest
single item in the export list was
grain. The total grain exports were

12,S70,O00 tons, valued at $325, 5,000,-
1000. European Russia used to harvest
I5S.50O,e00 tons of grain annually.
With its reduced area with the break
/ ing up of big estates. lack of machin-
cry and ruin wrought by continuous
war in many of its most fertile areas
it may be affirmed the grain harvest
of the soviet republic will scarcely
reach S1,500,0O0 tons annually. One
cannot count on any considerable ex-
portation of grain from soviet Russia
in the immediate future. So far as
Siberia and the provinces in Central
Asia are concerned they used to pro-
duce 500 pounds of grain for each in
habitant. The civil war must have re-
duced the normal very considerably
and 1t is doubtful whether any consid-
cradle quantity of grain can be ex-
ported from Siberia"
Colonel Englehard says livestock of
all sorts has been reduced so greatly
by the war that it is impossible to con-
slider the expectation of meat or live
animals. The civil war in the Don
and Kuban wiped out the sheep there
and make the extensive expectation of
wool impossible. The sugar industry
is so iisorganized and fuel so scarce

be able to supply its local market for |
