Vital Contract Is
Closed by 'AmtOrg'
USSR Trading Firm

Saul G. Bron, chairman of the
board of the Amtorg Trading Cor
poration, 165 Broadway, which ex-
ports products to the Soviet Union,
announced yesterday that a contract
had been signed with the Soviet Nap
tina Syndicate whereby Amtorg be-
came sole agent of the syndicate in
the United States. The contract was
concluded few days ago with M. E.
Kalnin, vice-chairman of the Naptha
syndicate, who has sailed for Europe
after spending a month in the United
States.
Mr.. Kalnin discussed the world oil
situation with a number of American
oil executives during his visit. Be
fore he sailed he expressed himself
optimistically on the future possibili-
ties of marketing Soviet oil products
abroad, in cooperation with estab-
lished American distributing COM
panies.
Oil Production Increases.
Officers of Amtorg stated that oil
production in the Soviet Union for the
first seven months Of the current
Soviet fiscal year, October 1st to
April Both, was $3.50, 146 metric tons,
an increase of 29.7 per cent over the
same period of last year and per
cent greater than the output for seven
months of 1913.
Oil exports for the period were L.
053,826 metric tons, an increase of Al
per cent over the same period of last
year and about double the rate of
export for 1913.

received that day. On top Of the
Mausoleum stood full length repro
duction of Lenin in metal, so that
when the current was turned on the
metal glowed with the heat Of cleo
trio energy, thrilling one in it's way
with the feeling that, "LENIN STILL
LIVES!" It was thing to admire.
Here was a sledge from the Cd
dessa Metal Works, with an appro-
pirate inscription; a huge tobacco
leaf in a glass case, from tobacco
workers, gifts from the Railroad
Shops in the North Caucuses, and
from the Navy YarE in Sebastopol,
to mention Just a few. We were
looking them over one by one, until
Comrade Illitchova arrived to well
the intruders.
Message to Americas Workers.
One moment in her presence and it
was easy to realize why she held this
important post. Full of energy and
enthusiasm, she quickly showed a
keen knowledge of the difficult tasks
confronting the central organ of the
Party that is leading 160,000,O00 of
people to Communism here in the So
Wet Union, and inspiring interna-
tional labor in the struggle toward
world victory.
She asked that her greeting be
sent to the readers of The DAILY
WORKER and urged that we exert
every possible energy in developing
our Worker Writers in America.
Then we passed on to Bukharin's
room-Nikolai Discrimination of
the Pravda, who is better known in the
United States as the writer Of Com
munist books and pamphlets that have
been translated into the English Ian
guage and received considerable cir
culation.

was busy somewhere else preparing
for the Plenum Of the Executive

The printers in two foreign news
papers "The Hankow Herald"
(American) and "The Central China
Post" (English)--went on strike on
the 10th Of March in Hankow. The
strike was entirely unexpected by the
publishers in both cases, the workers
having presented no demands OF any
sort in advance. They had always APP
peared satisfied with their conditions
and no sort of economic friction had
arisen between them and the employ
ers for a long time. The publishers,
however, jumping to the conclusion
that the printers were about to pre-
sent incredible demands for raised
wages, appealed to the authorities
with a protest and requests for pro-
lection from the violence Of the work.
ers. The authorities were also aston
ished by the strike, but refused to
take any measures for stopping it.
Reasons Appear.
The cause of the strike at last came
out on the 21st of March. The WI
hang printers union issued declara-
ton in which it was stated that the
cause of the strike was the tone of
these papers and the contents of the
articles printed in them. Both papers

Exactly month from the day the
strike arose "The Hankow Herald"
decided to capitulate. An agreement
was concluded between the two sides
through the mediation of Chen Kun
20, chief of the labor branch of the
Kuomintang. The publishers of "The
Hankow Herald" acknowledged that
they had been wrong TO publish ar
ticles against the emancipatory move
ment and the Chinese revolution and
declared themselves as supporters of
Americana Chinese friendship, in fu-
ture to refrain from printing such ar
ticles. Moreover, the publishers I'M
dertook to pay the morkers their
wages for the time of the strike, to
give the union compensation to the
amount Of 500 dollars and to make
no discharges in connection with the
strike.
"The Central China Post" has also
recently begun again to come out.
The terms on which the workers re-
turned are not, however, known as
yet, but it looks as if "The Central
