SOVIET LEADERS DENY
OIL CONTRACTS REPORT
No Concessions of Any Kind
Made, Says krassine.

Special Cable to THE NEw YORK HERALD.
Copyright 1929, by THE New YORK HERALD.
GENOA, May 3.--Leonid Krassne. Ra-
kovsky and all the Soviet delegates
vigorously deny the reports that the
Soviet Government had granted oil con-
cessions to the British Shell and Royal
Dutch groups. NJ. Rkovsky told THE
NEW YORK HERALD correspondent em-
phatically that it was false that Kras-
sine had contracted with the Shell In
terests for the exploitation of Russian
oil wells. No contract exists between
the Soviet Government and any Ameri-
can or European private concern FOR a
concession to work or transport petrol.
Inere are many negotiations, mostly
made before the conference, but not one
has been carried to completion and con-
verted into contract.
'I deny that there exists any agree
ment between Russia and any person or
society or trust, American or Euro
pean, for petrol concessions. 1t lis also
false that there is a treaty between the
Soviet delegates and Germany regard
ing Ukraine"
Col. Boyle. representative OF the Shell
Transport and Trading Company, issued
q statement declaring it absolutely un-
true that his company had made new
contracts with the Russians.
LONDON, May 3.-The question OF the

tend that an international struggle fol
the control of the Russian oil fields cor
only be avoided If all the Allies sup
port the Belgian demand, and that II
the Russians are permitted merely t.
compensate. insteda of returning the
oil properties, the Soviets might eventu.
ally concede a monopoly of the Russian
oil fields to a single group, which might
prove a world danger.

British Feel Uncertain.

LONDON. Nov 10. ASSOCIATED
Press. b--If any message on the Turkish
situation had been received from Con-
stantinople up to noon today in official
quarters no British official was willing
TO admit it to the press. One govern
ment official went so far. however. as to
say the situation was ''ominous" and
that nothing had been 4eceived indicating
that conditions were any better.
The officials declined to explain the
information on which this statement was
based.
The Daily News has the report that
the Angora government has asked the
Soviet government at Moscow whether
the Russian Bolsheyiks will adhere to
the Russo-Turkish military agreement
in the event of war" This report said
Moscow had replied affirmatiycly. but
the correspondent who filed the dispatch
understood that such adherence would
not take the form of lending troops to
the Turks as the Soviet fear that this
would affect Russa's individual interests
with other nations.
Some newspaper reports declare the
troubled conditions iIr Constantinople are
becoming worse. while others report inn
provement but none convey the impress
sion of reliability. On the whole, British
sources or information declare matters
are getting worse at Constantinople and

Furchgotts Play
Pals Tomorrow on

All the available baseball talent in
Jacksonville will arrive here tomor-

Wednesday and Thursday under the
name of the Furchgotts, the name
having been left over from a former
dry goods store team.
Some of the stars of the City
league of Jacksonville will be in the
lineup and the Pals are taking an
other workout this afternoon with
the Rollins college boys in an effort
to be on edge for tomorrow's fray.
The attendance at the Rollins game
yesterday was very small, and the
club will not make expenses on the
series, but it is believed that the
Furchgotts will draw much better,
having a club that is well worth
looking over.
