CAL CALLS RADIO
CONFAB, But BARS
U.S.S.R. and CHINA

WASHINGTON, May BIN Octo-
Der sf this year the representatives
Of practically every government in the
world viii meet in Washington to re-
wise the international laws governing
the use and operation of radio broad
casting Russia and China, the two
most populous countries in the world,
will not be represented.
The State Department. under the
presiding genius of Secretary Kellogg,
known to his associates as Nervous
Nelly" has called the international
conclave, but China and Russia are
classed b. it with such lands as Lii
IBERIA, the little oppressed Negro Re-
public in Africa, who will not be
represented.
Mr.. Kellogg's explanation as to why
Russia has not been invited is simple.
We have not recognized the Soviet
government of Russia" he coughed in
his Enthusiastically apologize man
ner, "and we have nothing to do with
them"
Which raised the interesting cues
ton of what about the economic con-
ference at Geneva to which Soviet
Russia is sending delegates. Ameri-
can representatives will also partici-
pate in this meet. OF course. it is not
being held under American auspices or
in the United States, but the fact that
Americans officially representing the
United States meet on diplomatic
grounds with Russians officially rep
resenting Soviet Russia is certainly a
change in conditions. Some months
ago Mr.. Kellogg was asked by news
paper men about this fact, but he
brushed it aside by pointing out that
Russia refused to attend any confer
ences in Geneva. Recently. with
Switzerland backing up and apologize
ing for the murder incident as well as
making PREPARATIONS, this pitiful alibi
has been taken from Kellogg and soon
the world viii see the extent of the
sham about American recognition of
Soviet Russia.

BRON WILL HEAD
AMTORG TRADING
CORP. NEXT YEAR
Expansion in Trade Is
Foreseen by Manager

Saul G. Bron, who has held various
important executive positions in the
trading organizations Of the Soviet
Union, has been elected chairman of
the board of the Amtorg Trading Cor
poration, los Broadway, the princi-
nal organization in American Russian
trade. He succeeds Alex V. Prigarin,
who retires for pressing personal rea-
sons. Bron recently arrived from
Moscow. Amtorg. a New York cor
poration, represents the principal in
dustrial and trading organizations of
the Soviet Union and has a business
turnover of close to $50,000,000 a
year. The change was announced yes
terday.
Bron issued the following state
ment at his office:
Because Of American unrivalled
machine production. trade with Amer
lea is considered of great Importance
in the Soviet Union. 1t was a COM
mon practice in pre-war days to trans
act trade between the two countries
through European middlemen. Soviet
policy now aims to carry on the trade
directly to the fullest extent. This
policy viii be of benefit to both the
American exporter and importer and
The Soviet consumer and exporter.
Retain Engineers.
Industrial leaders in the Soviet
Union are fully awake to the value Of
utilizing American technical and in
dustrial skill to assist in developing
the rich natural resources of the coun-
try and promoting its industrializa-
ton. A number of pre-eminent Amer
lean engineers have already been re-
tanned by the Soviet authorities,
among them Col. Hugh I. Cooper.
who is now in the Soviet Union in
connection with the Dnieper River
hydro-electric development which will
feed mower to the whole southern min
ing district.
"Trade between the United States
and the Soviet Union during the past
Soviet fiscal year aggregated nearly
S80,000.O00. Of which imports from
the United States constituted $685.
100000, over 30 per cent greater than
the pre-war figures.
Expect Expansion.
Further development of trade be-
tween the two countries depends to
large extent on the credit terms which
American manufacturers are willing
TO give on purchases for the Soviet
Union. / am sure that in view Of the
plans prepared by Soviet industrial
organizations, further expansion Of
American-Russian trade can be ex-
pected."
Bron was born in the Ukraine and
is 40 years Of age. He spent a good
part of his early years in Germany,
France and Switzerland, taking his
degree of Doctor Of Philosophy at the
Universities Of ZURICH and Kiev. While
abroad he studied the grain trade and
worked in this field after his return
to Russia.
After 1917 Bron held for four years
the post Of Minister for Foreign Trade
for the Ukraine and served on the
Supreme Economic Council During
the past two years he has been presi-
dent Of "Exportkhleb," the federal
grain export organization Of the Sow
let Union, besides serving as a mem
