Congress Insists Debts of Kerensky Regime Must Be Price of Official Cog niZance.

Washington, July 31 (UP)-More than a decade has passed since the United States and Russia maintained diplomatic relations This situation unique in modern history. means two Of the largest states in the world have had no means of directly dis cussing their uultitudinous mutual affairs.
 Officials here admit freely this situation makes doubly difficult a solution Of the present controversy over the importation Of alleged prison made goods from Russia Yet the stand Of the administration to- day is identically that of 1918. The state department holds the Soviet cannot be recognized until it agrees 10 discharge its debts to American creditors and meet certain other con- ditions.
 The one effort made by a United States senator to place the senate ou record in favor of Russian recogni- ton met with failure. Six years ago Senator Borah introduced q resolu- tion stating it was the sense Of the senate that Russian should be rec ognized. The resolution was never voted on.
 Lists Conditions
 The state department holds Russia should fulfill the following condi- lions before meriting recognition:
 Abstain from hostile propa- ganda in the United States.
 2-Protect and compensate the persons and property Of American citizens when they are lawfully pur- suing their business in Russia.
 3-Recognize unequiyocally the debt contracted by the nerensky government to the American govern ment without previous discussion of negotiation concerning these obIiga- tons
 A small bloc of senators. mostly progressives headed by Borah. still believe recognition desirable and necessary.

Gambling" tells a genuine
Cohanesque story. moving with
the true dash and American
humor that has marked some
300 Cohan songs and more than
IS of his plays. A gambler
seeks i to find the slayer Of
his foster daughter. He CANDLES
everything to run down the
culprit, thereby bringing into
the tale a good girl, q bad girl,
pals and policemen. All genu-
inely human.
The third act depicts .
gambling house in full opera
ton. This is one Of the most
realistic scenes Of the season,
showing the gamblers, the Park
Avenue guests and finally the
most thrilling raid ever staged.
Among those prominent in
the excellent cast are Mary

BATTERY TALENT
SHY AT BUSINESS
Stenogs Start Work This
Week Without Seasoned
Pitcher or Catcher.

CANDIDATES for Business
Highs base ball team will be-
gin preparation early this
week. The Stenogs are the
latest among public high squads to
start drills. They will hold forth on
Monument diamond No 3, with Coach
Lynn Woodwork in charge. Business
first formal game will be with the
Maryland freshmen April II at Col
lege Park.
Business must develop pitching and
catching strength if it expects to get
anywhere on the diamond. The
Stenogs are without single hurler OF
experience and the only player at hand
who has done any catching is Freddy
Finley, and his seasoning has been
limited
In addition to Finley, who also can
play first base, five members of the
Stenog squad have had experience,
including Chase, third baseman; Sing
man and Lucas, inflelders; Lotus, out
fielder, and Duryee, inf1elder or out
fielder.
Formal scholastic base ball compe-
tition hereabout will get under way to-
morrow when Emerson's tossers travel
to Hyattsville to engage the high school
nine there and GaitherSburg and
Rockville High teams hook up in an
intra- Montgomery County, Md, game

deal of experimenting in the Emerson
HyattSville tilt with a view to giving
Coach Harley Sanborn of the Emerson
team and Leland G. Worthington, Hy-
attsville tutor, line on their hopefuls
under fire. Neither the Gaithersburg
nor Rockville coach, however, is expect
ed to make many changes as the rivalry
between these mines is such that neither
will be willing to take chances If his
team is doing well.
Three more diamond contests are
listed for the week in addition to the
two on Tuesday.
A game between Dewitt and George
