COTTON FOR RUSSIA.

BERLIN. March 26.-The first cargo
of American cotton bought on Rus
sian account since the soviet revolu-
tion is reported to have left Bremen
for Russia in the shape of a consign-
ment of $4,000 bales.
The shipment was made on a Rus
sian steamer. which is said to have
been set aaide exclusively for the car
rying of such cargoes. The purchase
was the first made by Russia, through
the Bremen cotton exchange, since
the war.
Trade circles call attention to the
fact that Russia's textile plants have
been able to increase their produc-
ton to such an extent during the last
year that the cotton yield in Turk
estan, although now greater than
ever, is proving insufficient to NEE,
the Russian demand.

Russia for Russians,
 Communists Slogan

VLADIVOSTot., Feb 5.-Russia for the Russians, an intense nation alism and ruthless foreign policy where Russian interests are con cerned, are the leading principles of the new Russian government, accord. ing to Communists here. The edu. eated members of the party here are convinced that the days of 1916 and 1919 are gone never to return and that only by capitalism can the f. nances of the country be restored
 The idea of working with foreign capital is that the government should be shareholder in all commercial enterprises which will be under taken, foreigners supplying the ready money and the machinery, while the government will give the concessions and the workers and laborers em- ployed in working them.
