He said Everywhere I found the argument that America should not recognize Russia although aFl the European countries do and have commercial treaties with the Soviet. They get the business now, but should the United States open up trade rela- tions with Russia they would stand to lose much. Even though we enter into commercial treaties with the Soviet, that does not nee essarily mean We approve of their government
 Senator Barkley of Kentucky who accompanied Wheeler on his travels said that this visit to the European countries does not chan ge his mind one bit, as he has always been in favor of opening up of trade relations with Soviet Russia.
