There is practically no trade on
the Black Sea- said Mr.. Lang.
Even Greek and Armenian traders
have given up in despair, and every
one who knows the Black Sea realizes
that when these traders find unsur-
mountable obstacles to commerce,
there must be something serious the
matter.
"The new economic policy of the
Soviet was heralded as long ex-
pected loosening Of government con-
troll, and when it was inaugurated
more than a year ago the people had
great hopes that a new era was
dawning in communistic Russia. But
such hopes were soon dashed.
After shopkeepers had opened their
stores with what little stocks they
could get, they found that the govern
ment officials were waiting only for
trade to be resumed to impose ruin
Gus taxes. These taxes made bust
ness impossible for shopkeepers, for
importers and exporters alike
Harvest prospects in South Rus
sia are excellent, according to Mr..
Lang, who said that nobody in Rus
sia should go hungry this winter.
