Belgrade from refugees who managed to
reach Prilep, thirty miles to the north

State Department in Washington asking
II to decide definitely whether the
American Government desired to renew
its official support of the Textile ALI
ance. through which the textile industry
Is getting all its German dyes, or to
make some new arrangement. The fall
ure of the State Department to make a
decision resulted two months ago In the
refusal of the German dye manufac-
turers to deliver any more dyes TO the
alliance, seriously handicapping the
American textile industry
Within the last ten days Germany has
resumed partial deliveries OF dyes to the
alliance. but officials of the Repara-
tions Commission say the dispute has
seriously disturbed the whole machinery
of the commission, through which the
Allies obtain 25 per cent. of all the dyes

CLAIMS FREE HAND
FOR RUSSIA'S TRADE
Krassine Complains of Most
Unfouored Nation VieDs.

GENOA, April 20 ASSOCIATED Press).-
Speaking before the Commission on Eco
nomics. Leonid Krassine objected to the
idea Of restoring liberty of trade in
Russia, saying 1t was neither possible
nor desirable. He claimed the right for
Russia to restrict both imports and
exports in any way she thought flt.
Krassine again referred to the neces-
sIty Of the equal distribution among all
countries of raw material, including
gold. The representatives of the other
countries favored trade as free as pos
sible and were ready to draw up an
arrangement to that end. 1t was de-
cided that all proposals must be SUBJ
mitted by Monday.
NJ. Rrassine declared Russia had not
abandoned the idea of complete social
ization of the means of production and
exchange, and said Russia was drawing
as near as she could to state OF Social
ism. The Russians claimed complete
monopoly OF external trade, which he
declared must move through central
organizations OF the Soviet Government.
M. Krassine told the commission that
Russia could not give up her control OF
foreign trade unless she could first regu-
late internal trade. Any interference
with the Soviet Government in foreign
trade could be feasible only on the fol-
lowing conditions: First, economic resto-
ration of all countries: second. reestab-
lishment throughout the world OF Geo.
nomic equilibrium, and. third. stabiliza-
tion Of exchanges in all countries.
M. Krassine asked that raw materials
be systematically divided among the
different countries. Russia in principle
was favorable to the principle OF the
most favored nation, but he thought II
should not be generallzed, as the special
economic and fiscal conditions of each
State must be considered. He COM
