extraordinary session OF the Moscow
Soviet today on tho subject OF the
Genoa Conference. presented docu-
mentary, newspaper and cIrcumstan-
tial evidence designed to show threat
ening interventionist and counter
revolutionary activities against Rus

For perhaps the first time, Trotzky
included American capitalists. with
Paris and London" a behind the cur
tain in schemes particularly In the
Caucussus where he said BalSu oil was
the motive behind foreign capitalists
who were backing former Grand Duke
Nicholas.
Although re-asserting Russia's de-
sire for peace, Trotzkys speech struck
a militant note and throughout his ad-
dress he advised preparations for the
red army.
The war minister paid tribute to the
humanitarian work of the American
Relief Administration, which, he said,
was feeding ten times as many famine
sufferers as all the European relief
agencies combined.
But why do we praise DR.. Fridtjof
Nansen and only express gratitude
to the American Relief Administra
tion?" He asked rhetorically. BE
cause We don't know what America
wants. Some officials high in the
American Relief Administration have
been opponents to the Soviet govern
