SAYS RUSSIA
MUCH GOLD
And Will Pay For All Sup
plies, Soviet Friend
Declares
REDS WERE FORCED
INTO VIOLENCE

NEW YORK. March 24.-(United
Press)-soviet Russia has millions
in gold ready to pay for American
products. Patrick Quinlan. former
labor leader. declared here today.
Quinlan recently emerged from a
ten-months' stay In Russia
Russia can pay for. and is In des-
perate need, he said. OF agricultural
machinery In enormous quanti-
ties" ten million pairs Of shoes; any
quantity OF underwear. medical sup
plies to replace "those which are
hopelessly inadequate" white paper,
5000 locomotives as fast as they can
be delivered and ultimately from t5,-
900 10 10000.
Gold in practically unlimited guam
titles is ready to pay for the goods.
Quinlan said. He declared the soviets
positively will not trade until they
are given defacto recognition.
Despite a months imprisonment in
Russia, Quinlan's views on the Boil
shevik regime were frankly sympa-
thetic.
There never was government
30 severely tried as the Bolshevik." &"
he declared. 1T has fought starva-
tion, blockade and war on every
front. II should have a chance to
work out its experiment"
Among the mass OF observations
and information Quinlan brought
back with him were these:
"Nikolai Lenin Is espousing 'revo-
lutionary opportunism' in proposing
a lessening OF Bolshevik restrictions
on trade and property ownership. He
is not abandoning any principles.
When affairs are Strengthened out
he will go right back TO the program.
The soviets then probably will profit
by experience and be more diplo-
matte.
The soviets were forced into vio-
lence from the first.
There nave been ordinary dihcul-
ties in controlling the army. But the
Kronstadt revolution was merely a
quarrel and was not a revolution
threatening to overthrow the soviets.
"Lenin's recent proposal which
was looked upon by many as a re-
turn TO capitalism was no. official
Lenin simply suggested them to the
communist party just as demo-
cratic leader might advance a pro-
position in a party convention here.
His plans will have TO be approved
by the All Russian Soviet Congress
before anything is done.
"Of course Lenin will have his
way. He always does. But he would
not dare foresake communism.
They'd probably behead him.

INDUSTRIAL TRUST

A single offer for taking over the
properties comprising Union Park
Gardens. this city, was received by
the United States Shipping Board in
Washington today. Neither its back
ers nor the price offered for the sos
houses. one apartment house and
several stores at the Gardens was
announced
No offer was made by the Indus
trial Trust Company. OF this city.
which made bid Of t1,15O,00O for
the entire Gardens properties on
December 81 last. At that time bids
were advertised for. This time the
offers were sought privately by the
Shipping Board, and although the
Industrial Trust directors were
urged to increase their bid. they de-
cided negatively.
Meanwhile. according TO report, a

only one offer had been received by
w. F. Towers, chief Of the housing
division. and its contents were not
made public.
Haldeman c. Stout. vice-president
Of the Industrial Trust Company,
said:
I'VE did not make any new offer
for Union Park Gardens, although
we were urged to do so by the Ship
ping Board. Our principal reason
is the depression industrially. We
realize that to take over and sell off
the more than 500 properties would
mean much work and no little risk.
We are anxious to aid the tenants at
the Gardens as much as possible to
buy their homes, but under the cir
cumstances felt II was inadvisable
for us TO assume the burden except
at our original figures OF s1,15O,-
OOO."
The Shipping Board is now collect
ing about $50. 900 monthly in rents at
the Gardens. or $4,000 a year.
While this is regarded as a good in

IS anxious to dispose OF all its war
