Berlin, October 1.-American, Eng land and German banking interests have begun negotiations looking to- ward cooperation in the rehabllita- tion of Russia through the financing of industrial enterprises in the soviet republic according to information which has reached interested com mercial circles here.
 The proposed assistance would not be based upon a recognition of the present government of Russia, but would be extended with the convlc- tion that the Russian government would respect any contracts which might be made one of the represen- tatives of London house, which is promoting the movement, declared He added that negotiations were be- gun only after 1t was established that the soviet government was no longer red but had swung to the right, and was aiming at something essentially the same as the goal of other republican nations'
 The Russian government is under stood to have been informed of the purpose of the American English and German interests, and to have been told frankly there was no intention at this time Of making Russia fourth party to the contract but only the object of "a solicitous and profitable movement"
 The Russians are believed to have taken it for granted that the inter- national bankers were planning a benevolent exploitation of Russia, which would not only yield to them profit. but would help to sta bilize the uncertain economical situation there.
 See Possible Success
 Certain Russians here who have displayed lively interest In these ne- gotiations assert there is a possi- bility they will succeed regardless of whether the present Russian govern ernment stands or falls, although ii is admitted that at this time the only result of the movement has been to secure the promise of a numb of individual but strong banking houses in each of the three countries to support the plan If good evidence Is offered that the soviet governmen mi will give the foreign financiers a free hand
