LONG CREDIT DEMANDS
 HAMPER RUSSIAN TRADE
Swedish Export Dealers Find a Hard Path When Endea,pring ta
 Deal With inc soNieis,

Washington, D, C.. July 2s,-when Russia for long credit in Sweden, in some cases for periods Of three to four yearsi slow business procedure and severe maintenance of the soviet foreign trade monopoly, combined with almost insurmouniable difficult ties in the way of private Russian en- terprise, are some of the things enr eounlered by Swedish exporters deal- ing with Russia under the new trade agreement between the two countries according to statement given out by the Swedish General Export Assoeia- tion,
 Since the exchange Of ratifcatinns of the treaty May l the deals closed have tntalled not more than about $500 ,ono. involving purchases. of such Swedish products as paper pulp, cream separators, steel plates, and agricultural machinery. Although the Russians have in certain eases asked for three or four years postpone ment of payments, no credit of more than six months has SO far been granted. The procedure Is slow be- cause all negotiations and orders must come through the Russian trade dele gatinn in Stockholm, and this body must obtain competitive bids, not only from Swedish firms. but also from abroad.
 While private enterprise Is permit. ted in Russia. the soviet is itself Tn competition with such business, and the individuals and private firms find their activity severely inspected and heavily hurdened with taxes. swed .. ish firms. therefore. do not at present look for much business with Russia except through the monopoly.

VIEW heroines have left entire

with blood.
Dashes of red through the an

which Stays rather than allow it,

Jealousy, vengeance-such print
time forces have dyed the hands
of women with blood. But of
all whose memory marches in
review throughout the years there
probably is but one who killed for
what appears to have been the
love of killing.
Now, after more than thirteen
hundred years. her name still
strikes terror to the hearts of a
simple peasant folk whose lives
are Influenced by the traditions Of
their country almost as completely
as by the things of the day.

Through processes never set forth
in the story of France she worked
her way into the service of Queen
Ansowere, the wife of Chiiperlc,
King of France.
Then began her career of plot
ting. Her great beauty and re.
markable wit helped her to attract
the attention of the king. she
soon led him to believe that. he
would be better off without the
co-rulership of Ansowere. Ac-
cordingly the queen was placed in
convent, where she was obliged
to remain.
The influence of Fredegonde
over the king steadily increased.
Even his marriage to Galdsuintha
failed to break it. And when
that unhappy woman had been
murdered-strangled in nec bed
Fredegonde married him and
gained an ascendancy over him
that ended only when he died. ~
The most spectacular feat of
Fredegonde was her leadership of
the armies of Chilperic when his
brother, Siegbert, made war upon
