Krassin Hints That England
Should Not Be Given Con-
troll of Naptha
RUSSIAN BANK IN LONDON

London, May 14.-The in tial judic-
ial decision affected by the British
governments tacit recogn ton of the
Soviet government as the defacto
government Of Russia was rendered
yesterday afternoon when the court
OF appeal reversed a previous finding
Of the high court in the disputed ow.
nersh p of quantity of veneer and
other wood material shipped from
Russia under contract made by
Leonid Krassine, the Soviet trade
comm ssary
At the time the Anglo.Soyiet trade
agreement was signed, it was said
British trade would await the decis on
in this case before embarking in eX-
tensive trade with Russ a, as upon
this test case depended the rightful
ownership of goods exported from
Russia.
The goods concerned had been con.
fscated by the Soviet government in
1919, and were sold to a firm of Brit,
ish importers last August The Brit
ish courts found the original owners
entitled to the goods, as the Soviet
government had net been recognized
by the British government and conse-
quently had not the right of confisca-
tor
The court of appeal found, however,
that since the Sow ct government had
been recognized as the defacto govern
ment Of Russia. it was not within the
jurisdiction of the Br tish courts to
consider the justice or morality of the
contiscatory order. although such
principles sa d the court ARE re.
pudiated by the vast majority of the
citizens of Great Britain and are not
recognized by Is laws
Krassine, addressing the supreme
economic council on foreign trade
prospects announced, according to the
Hels ngfors correspondent Of the Lon
don Times, that the Soviet had pur-
chased from America 600,000 pairs Of
boots, besides coal and 1000 tons Of
rope. He noted the Importance to
America that England should not get
control Of Russian naphtha.
The I'm ted States, said Krassine,
had not yet begun real negotiations
with the Soviet. He declared the
Soviet intended to establish its own
banking institutions in London and
that measures had been taken for OPP
ening credits for the development of
Russian trade to the extent of two or
three million pounds sterling.
