alton said:
Enemies of prohibition endeavor
to make this (tIle eighteenth

sumptuary legislation. This is not
true, and we specifically repudiate
all enforcement policies that do not
regard and safeguard every per-
sonal right guaranteed by the Con-
Stitution."

QUARRELS Peril
BIG U. S. TRADE
WITH RUSSIA
Tense Situation Grows as
Lumber, Coal Industries
Ask Ban.
By JOSEPH H. BAIRD
limited Press stan Correspondent

WASHINGTON, July IA
situation already tense and compI-
Gated had been accumulated today
by the action OF Senator David A.
Reed, Rep.. Pa) in asking the
treasury department to employ the
new Smoot- Hawley tariff act as an
instrument to shut out lumber and
anthracite coal, produced by convict
labor in Soviet Russia.
A series of developments has
threatened to bring on serious trade
differences between the United
States and Russia.
Assistant Secretary of Treasury
Lowman announced Saturday he
would STUDY the possibility Of plac-
ing an embargo on soviet coal,
manganese and lumber if they
proved to be convict-produced.
Trade Expands Rapidly
On the previous day, Maxim
Litvirof, soviet foreign minister,
sold correspondents in Moscow his
country would cease trading with
nations which barred soviet imports.
This embryonic trade war was
seen here as menacing an interna-
tional business which has expanded
lore than six times over in the last
eight years.
Commerce department figures
shown United States-Russian trade
grew in value from $16,583,396 in
1921 to $107,280,919 in 1929. 1t
promises to be even larger in 1880.
The preponderant balance of
trade rests with the United States.
The question of penal labor in
Russia arose more than two weeks
ago. Then the treasury department
refused entry to two ship loads of
lumber, on the grounds the lumber
was produced by convictS. Later,
in the absence of proof, the cargo
was admitted.
Probe Soviet Propaganda
Last Friday the treasury an
nounced its refusal to admit wood
pulp from Russia, which it likewise
charged was handled by convicts.
At the same time the American
Manganese Producers Association
state manganese was being dumped
by Russia on the American market
at figure lower than cost.
These developments took place
while a house committee, headed by
Representative Fish (Rep, N. V
was investigating alleged Soviet
propaganda in the United States
and particularly the Amtorg Trad
ing Corporation, chief Soviet trade
agency in this country.
