SOVIET TRADE HEAD
IN LONDON SUES FOR
COOPERATIVE FUNDS
CBy Associated Press)

LONDON, April 15.-Poesession Of
the assets and capital Of the Great
Russian Cooperative societies, which
before revolution in that country
served as the trading link between
millions of Russian peasants and mer-
chants. will be the subject Of litigar
tion expected to be begun soon in this
city by Leonid Krassin. head of the
Bolshevik trade delegation here.
While the amount involved in Eng
land approximates 100000 pounds,
questions of law expected to arise dur
ing the progress of the suit probably
will constitute the most important fea-
ture Of the case.
NJ. Krassin indicated his intention
to bring suit in the course OF letter
to the headquarters of the co-opera-
tives in this city a few days ago.
"Tn view Of the conclusion Of the
trade agreement between England
and Russia and the prospect that le-
gal relations will gradually take their
normal course" his letter declared,
81 expect you will be forced before
long by legal decision to hand over
both the public and cooperative capt.
tai held by you. Desiring not TO leave
a stone unturned in the effort to ar
rive at an amicable solution of the
situation, propose that you hand over
this capital voluntarily"
Reply Follows Meeting
Executives of the cooperative so
cieties held a joint conference and
drafted a reply, citing the recent
statement Of soviet policy toward the
co-operatives by Nikolai Lenine, Rus
sian Bolshevik premier. They de-
clared that in accordance with Len
ines declaration in the tenth congress
of the Russian communist party had
passed resolutions that peasants
should not be restricted in disposing
of their produce and annulled pre-
vious resolution making the cooper
alive societies government bodies. 1t
was declared that these considera-
tons has caused the cooperative Sc
cieties TO decide to contest the ex-
pected effort of the soviet govern
ment to secure control of their capital
and trading machinery aboard.
Should the Bolsheviki government
succeed in its attempt to get control
Of the cooperative capital in England.
there are indications that a similar
move will be inaugurated in America,
the cooperative societies having offc-
es in New York City. 1t is probable
another suit will be brought in France
for possession of the assets of branch
es of the societies in Paris. The pro-
ceedings will be the soviet govern
ment's first sally in the British
courts and the outcome will be
watched with keen interest.

Dear Joe:
I'm trying out your advice about con
vincng the baby that it's just as simple
for him TO speak pure English as impure
baby talk, but so far l can't say | feel
like a conquering hero in the matter.
For instance, this morning he got
sudden mania for saying 'Waw, and
every time he said il l looked him
straight in the little face, just like YOU
suggested. aud said Papa and every
time said Papa" he looked me
straight back in the face and said
''Waw." 1t would be rather exaggerat-
ing to call that progress, wouldn't 1t
Joe? Personally l think It was Just
dumbnes rather than any personal in
suit to you.
So after all Joe, il just proves once
more that we've all merely descendants
of our ancestors, and after thousands of
generations OF babies who were brought
M to talk baby talk how can We expect
our own little angel to launch out for
himself like Christopher Columbus or
somebody? The only answer is we can I.
Besides, his baby talk is useful under
the present condition Of circumstances.

better, whereas if he spoke English she
wouldn't know what he meant any more
