KELLOGG HAS
BLACKLIST OF
BAD RUSSIANS
Relies on Judgment of
Underling

WASHINGTON Nov. 23.-That Sec
rotary of State Kellogg relies upon a
blacklist of bad Russians" prepared
by Robert F. Kelley, chief of the di-
vision of eastern European affairs, for
excluding Russians from the United
States is revealed in the Nine. Kali
lontai case.
Kelley was once stationed at Riga
and there prepared the blacklist
from his observations" it was said.
Kellogg relies entirely on this list, and
anyone whose name appears on it is
summary barred
Not Impartial.
The contention of kellogg Non her
barring that he is enforcing the law
against radicals without Partially or
favor" is disputed by representatives
of Russian business organizations
The Amtorg Trading corporation
has said that it has an agreement with
Kellogg by which any person 0. KID
by them is allowed admittance with
out further questions. But, of course,
it is pointed out, Nine. Kallontai did
not want to come here to buy goods.

working class children, ready to train
its members into real fighters and
future leaders of the working class.
The party has hitherto paid very
little attention-if any at ALTO the
Young Pioneers. The work of build
ing and maintaining the Pioneers was
left entirely in the hands of the Young
Workers League. Even where the
league was very weak the party
seldom lent helping hand. This situa-
ton must be changed.

The Pioneer convention and the af-
fair preceding it should receive the

GRAINS REACT TO
HIGHER CLOSING
Sudden Change Common to
Weather Markets.
BIZ Enitcd PrcSS

BIZ United Press
CHICAGO, June 15.-Grain prices
on the Chicago Board OF Trade today
experienced one of the sudden reac-
tons in price trends characteristic
of weather markets and closed we'll
about Mondays market in all posi-
tons.
Widespread reports of good gains
caused early selling of wheat. Com
mission houses absorbed practically
all offerings and were partly respon-
sible for the rally. The fact that old
wheat stocks are rapidly dwindling
was another factor which caused a
slight rise in cash prices, while fu-
lures were sharply higher
Weather, however, continues to
be the dominating factor in the pit.
Northwestern reports were bearish,
and so were the predictions of more
rain for many sections of the belt,
but some reports from the southwest
had a bullih tone.
Corn made a fractional gain over
Mondays close in all positions, al
though it was under pressure early
in the day.
Oats closed fractionally higher
after dull day
Provisions closed higher.

BV United Press
NEW YORK, June 15.-Specula-
tive sentiment was largely bullish
as result Of yesterdays aggressive
demonstrations in industrial stocks
Business news developed good, the
principal bearish factor in the stock
market situation being that the full
extent of the recovery called for
under the Dow-Jones theory had been
Appropriated.
At yesterdays close, the Dow
Jones industrial averages stood at
1903, a rebound Of 1898 points
from the March 80 low At this
figure, slightly more than so per
cent of 2011 decline from the Feb
ruary high had been regained.
This consideration induced con-
siderable proft-taking in the early
dealings, creating market irregu-
larity in the general list.
Tremendous activity In oils con-
tinued the outstanding feature of the
market around mono. Huge trans
actions in Texas Company, Marland
and other leaders of the petroleum
group counter-balanced further
profit-tak1ng in American Can, Gen
eral Motors, Steel and other recent
leaders.
