Soviet Russia
Indifferent to
u. S. Elections
By FREDERICK KUN
Omitted Press Staff Correspondent

MOSCOW, Oct. 29.-Soviet Rus
sia attaches small Importance to the
outcome of the American elections.
A bored indifference is the gen.
eral attitude here. The geographic
remoteness of the United States ac-
counts for much of the indifference.
There also is universal ignorance of
the issues.
Officidl endorsement of Senator
La Follette's candidacy by the
American Federation of Labor is
considered the most important de-
velopment of the campaign in the
United States. In Moscow's opin-
ion, organized labor in America has
broken definitely with its tradition
al support of the two party system.
Russian politicians foresee the
unification of heterogeneous Amer
lean labor.
Official Soviet circles are watch
ing closely the rivalry of the presi-
Dental candidates for the favor of
the farm population.
The question of American recog-
milton of the Soviet government will
scarcely be affected by the election
results, it is believed Russia is
that such recognition will
be forthcoming when economic in
teaests dictate the desirabiIity of
Russian markets for the American
investors.

IMPERIAL VALLEY FINANCE

CORP. l.. Moore, manager OF
the Imperial Valley Finance Corpo-
ration in Ell Centre, states that the
various car distributors are center
ing their attention on Imperial Val
ley now because sales here during
the past year have indicated that
the valley can absorb considcra
more ears this fall and winter due
to the general prosperity of the
farmer and the business man.
Mr.. Moore states that the sales
for the seven lines of ears his firm
handles are exceptionally good. The
company is erecting n $4,000 build
ing in CaleXieo and 'contemplates
several other new or improved
structures in the various valley
towns this season. The company is
firm in its belief that the pros.
perity era coming into being here
this year will be permanent and
they are working on an expansion
plan for their business accordingly.
According to Mr.. Moore, the COM
pany in the valley has oversold its
quota of ears from the factory and
there is still two weeks to go be-
fore reports must be made IN the
present selling campaign. Mr..
Moore believes that the splendid
opportunities offered for automo-
bile travel in Southern California
coupled with the real "good times -
feeling, in the valley, is the reason
for valley automobile distributors
having u banner season.
