RIGA. Oct. THE Soviet gov
ernment has granted the indus
trial kinema economic trust" a
monopoly of all moving picture
rights in Russia. including the
filming of pictures. the operation
of theaters and the importation OF
foreign films, according to NJ. Lu-
narchowsky. the Soviet commissar
of education. who is en- route to
Italy as the delegate of the Third
Internationale to the Socialist con-
gress. NJ. Lunarchowsky said the
bureaucrats could not handle the
film business efficiently, so the gov
ernment turned II over to a private
trust which will pay royalties in
return for the monopoly. The trust
is willing to grant concessions TO
reputable moving picture firms for
the Importation of films, operation
of theaters. etc.
He also said that the theaters
in the main have been donation
allied and are now run by artists
who pay the government a per-
centage of their receipts and re-
serve certain blocks of seats in all
parts of the house for the trade
unions. The government control Is
now limited to censorship of the
productions and IL does not arrange
the program as it did last year.

NJ Lunarchowsky said also that
there has been a recent realiza-
tion that educational control. in
stead of being in the hands of a
national commisar at Moscow
should be in the bands of the town
and provincial councils which ought
to pay for the upkeep OF the

misar will arrange an educationa,
program as an example but the

Readjustment of business conditions
to a point when goods will again move
forward in a healthy, normal way is
coming about very slowly. The leaf
merchants who sit with high priced
holdings are reluctant in moving down
to the price level where they face GER
tain loss, and the manufacturers are
reluctant to give up their hand-to-mouth
method of laying in supplies. The Leaf
in it's market review says:
That this readjustment of leaf values
has been costly one for the leaf mer-
chant, and in the aggregate represents
large losses of invested capital, is a
point which the manufacturer would do
we'll to bear in mind in forming his re-
vised opinion with regard to the raw
material market. That he will continue
his policy of purchasing for immediate
needs only is logical assumption which
the leaf merchant accepts with philoso-
phical understanding. That continue
tion of this policy will result in any
further depression of material proper
tons is unlikely. The outstanding point
in the present situation and one of most
wholesome significance is found, as has
been said, in the attitude and the ac-
tion taken by the leaf trade itself in
endeavoring to clear the way for the
new order of more wholesome and mer-
chant-like business.
The binder crops of Connecticut and
Wisconsin seem to furnish other exam
pies of commodities upon which. any
further sacrifice can hardly reasonably
be looked for. In the instance of both
Wisconsin and Connecticut Broadleaf
the sustaining elements are limited
quantity and undoubted need.

LANCASTER, Pa, Oct. IL, 1921.
So far as known, the growers have
not put any price on the tobacco, doubt
less remembering their disappointment
last year when they were obliged to
sell at figures so much below those they
had established early in the season.
Nor are the buyers saying v hat they
expect to pay for the crop. Everything
depends upon business conditions at
selling time, and conditions will deter
mine when the crop shall move. Many
of the local packers will be purchasing
agents for big outside concerns this
wear again as for some seasons past,
but the same agents will also buy for
themselves. .-Siade in Leaf

EDGERToN. Wis. Oct 27. l92I

EDGEhTONs w u.s.. OcI. II, t1SZl.
Happy is the nation whose annals
are BRIEF, is the comment of sage
who happened to shit off, phrase
that has lived through centuries. The
'brevity" part of it applies fully to the
tobacco situation during the past week,
though the Happiness" portion may
permit of considerable discounting.
To say that there is no change in the
market is to tell the truth, though it
does not convey any information that
is of particular interest to anybody. AT
least, it cannot be classified as good
news. A little 1920 stemming goods is
dribbling into the market right along,
quietly, and arousing no interest and
no comment. There is market for the
stemming grades at the bottom price.
The 1921 is favored with the right
sort of temperature for curing. Very
little is said about the progress of it,
which indicates that it is running a
normal course. The bright, mellow
days of the early part of the week have
been highly beneficial to late hangings,
and another week or two of this kind
of weather will bring even the late to-
bacco beyond the frost danger point.
Tobacco in storage at the local points
in the southern part of the state show
ed less activity during the third than
during the second week of October,
only IL cars of cases going out from
this station. Five cars of bundles were
shipped.
The report of the u. S. revenue bu-
reau to the effect that the deficit in the
cigar production, as compared with the
output of last year, is growing less as
the months pass. This is reassuring,
and points toward time not far dis
tant when the manufacturers must
come into the field for new supplies.
The packers who have goods ready for
the factory are interested in this phase
of the market situation.
A message from Vernon county in
forms The Reporter reliably that buy
ing in small way started around
Westby Tuesday of this week. Buyers
also visited the Kickapoo valley trying
to buy, but no sale had been reported
from that section up to the time of the
message received. The only figure OBJ
tainable so far is 20 and &c.

HARTFURD, OT., OCL. II, IJAI. "
The buying of the new Connecticut
tobacco crop started so auspiciously
last week by Keiser & Boasberg was
continued this week by other packers.
Reports of further purchases of the
1921 crop came to State street from
the outlying districts.
A contract for 500 cases of the 1920
crop was closed by Nipple Brothers &
Co. Of Philadelphia. Some sales have
been made in the Broadleaf zone at fair
prices, but big sales are expected late
in October in Suffeld, Windsor Locks
and East Hartford
Wages are announced as lower at the
tobacco warehouses in Connecticut this
season than last year &C this time. u.
