RUSSIAN LEADERS ARE CONFIDENT
 IN NATIONS ECONOMIC FUTURE

MOSCOW, Aug 28.-Soviet Rus
 ian leaders are ..advancing reasons elsl.y--und dart.arI .Jle within Russia but probably difficult of comprehen. sion abroad, as to why they believe Russia af:cr ae comi.g harvest, can get along ard show economic inn. provement w.tho,1. ;he aid of fore gn governments
 They make no secret that indus trially the country can show very little life Wl,hout huge fore gn cred IS, but they say that Russia is pri- narily an agricultural country, and that the requirements of the Russian peasant are probably smaller than those of any ether people except the Chinese CT Hiadus. The peasants comprise at least 70 per cent of the country's population.
 An American, accustomed to the standard of living in the United States, ght consider it a terrible condition were som J3ne to tell him that 50,000,000 Russian people had no shoes. The Russian, familiar with his own country, would shrug his shoulders and say: What of it?' He would remark that at least 50 100000 Ru1rans never had shoes and probably would not know what 70 do wlh thcm if they did. Tho Deasarts go barefoot in summer, use homemade straw sandals in the au tumn. and felt boots of village manu facture in the winter.
 It is similar wiJh most articles oi wear ard Household use which Amer ica1 civilization considers essential to comfort. If the Russian peasant has plory to eat-and above all other things. he rrefcrs black bread and if he has a few rags to cover him and hut to shelter him. he is as well off as he was before the war
 It was only in late years under the monarchy that the growth oi manufacturing within Russia was seriously encouraged. The Sovfei regime. whose supporters were most ly among the factory workers in tho cities, has desired to increase in dustry probably even more than tho old regime. but, due to civil war ant destruction. industry is now in 2 worse state than ever before. Il foreign capital comes in to any grca extent, the government expects to re create industry, but lacking this, i considers that Russia can get alon. az an agricultural country until suci time as Gfthor from within itself, o with foreign assistance. it can be come an indnes'-.al country.
 As civil war is over. and the har vest promises 10 be better than a any time since tho war. the Sovie leaders contend tha. the peasant ant the cttv workme1 TOW will beth hay, more food than they have had fo years. and thl't the wcr7. period Ii behind them. For this relsol the al tirude of Rus ian diplomrts at Ge "Nl aird The Hague was firmer thal tho Western world. accuy.omed t, thinking of economic ruin in tn, sense 1t would affect their own coun tries, had believed possible.

WAS CAUSED BY INTERNAL

Sofia, Bulgaria.-An explosion oc-
Cured in the American legation at
Sofia at few nights ago. Nobody was
injured, but several of the windows
were shattered and some damage was
done to the building. Charles S. Will
son, the American minister, expressed
the belief that the explosion was due
to a bomb. The bomb landed in the
garden of the legation. The fact that
this part of the legation was without
lights and that no one was there at
the time, seems to indicate that the
perpetrator had no intention or killing
anyone.
The king and cabinet have ex-
pressed deep regrets to the American
minister and qualification that he was
not injured. Bulgarian public opinion
strongly condemns the act.
Washington.-The only official mes
sage reaching the State Department
regarding the explosion in the Ameri-
can legation of Sofia, was a cablegram
sent by Minister Wilson coinciding
with the information contained in AS
ISOLATED Press dispatches.
The message said the explosion &C.
Cured in the chancery of the legation
at s o'clock in the evening, breaking
all the chancery windows and doing
some additional damage, but that no
n was injured.
Except for servants, it vas said, no
