RECOGNITION IS
NOT APPROVAL.
SCION ASSERTS
Brookhart Says Soviet
Recognition Would
Reduce Unrest.

DIES MONIES, Town, Sept, 7.-By
The Associated RECONSIDERATION
of the Soviet government OF Russia
does not mean official approval OF
that government by the United
States. any more than It means ap'
proyal of the acts of several other
eovernments that have been recog'
nized, Senator Smith w. Brookhart
of Iowa declared In a statement pub
lished here today in the Iowa LIE
gionarie, organ OF the Iowa Depart
ment of the American Legion.
Such recognition. said the senator
was advocated by him only on the
grounds that It might have a far
reaching effect in restoring world
prosperity and eliminating world un'
rest
Senator Brookhnrt's statement was
In reply TO a resolution recently
adopted by the state American LIE
zion convention. In which the ex'
service men opposed recognition of
the Soviet government. Mr.. Brook
hart himself ia q member Of h le-
gion.
A matters stand now" said
Senator Brookhart. there are three
alternatives In Russia; the present
government, Czartsm or choas.
The present government is many
times better than Czartsm. which
we recognized for 14o years 1t is
also many times better than the un'
.peakable Turk. with his long his
tory of Christian murders. but whose
government we have always recog'
nized and do now.
1.-THE recognition of a government
docs not mean its approval. II 1t
did / should oppose 1t and there are
several other countries whose recog
milton / would withdraw. There is
only one argument for the recogni'
tton of Russia. II may tend to settle
the world unrest and restore world
prosperity. The United States gov
eminent has already done much more
for Russia than were recognition by
voting s24.0 900 900 for famine relief
Nobody approves the exceSes
and cruelties Of the revolution even
though they are inevitable. Every
body thinks Czarism should have
been o~verthrown.
1.-THE present government is large
~ a labor government, although the
voice of the peasant grows stronger
in It every day. This unltes the vast
majority of the people in its support
On the whole l think they will have
to modify many thingB in their gov
eminent. even as we have done by
10 amendments to constitution.
"Russia's propaganda against the
United States is dead. 1t never WINS
one-tenth part of what we put out
against them. Every Russian 1 met
expressed the deepest friendship for
America There is every reason to
believe It was genuine"
Senator Brookhart described condi-
lions in Russia during his recent
tour OF the country and denied that
Interpreters had misled him. stating
that all his Interpreters were fur
nished by the American Relief ad-
ministration.
