Ship Flying Red Flag
Brings Soviet Oil to China.

North China Herald, Shanghai
Flying the Soviet flag the motor tanker
Norvinn docked recently at the plant of
the Kwang Wha Petroleum Co., Ltd,
with the first complete shipment Of
Soviet kerosene ever brought to China
The Norvinn arrived here "a days out
from Baturn, on the Black Sea, where
her cargo, said to total 100000 GAL
Ions, was pumped aboard from the vast
Soviet petroleum installation at that
port.
In addition to her arrival marking
the invasion of Russian petroleum
products in the Orient, the Norvinn is
the first vessel to arrive here flying the
red nag since diplomatic relations be-
tween the Soviets and China were
severed in 1927.
That the invasion of Soviet oil even
tuaIly may participate price war in
emma in the petroleum market is a
possibility feared by interests in close
touch with the situation. At the pres
ent time, however, this shipment merely
serves to replace monthly imports of
1,500, 900 gallons of independent Ameri-
can kerosene formerly brought from
California by the Kwng Wha COM
pany, which, hereafter, as the sole rep
resentative in China for the Soyuzneft,
as the Soviet Naptha Trust is generally
known, will handle the Russian product
exclusively.
The cargo of the Norvinn will be
pumped to tanks provided for this pur-
pose by the Kwang Wha concern, after
which 1t Is expected that the oil will be
cased in five-gallon tins for transport
into the interior of China, where the
company operates numerous agencies.

books. Through such processes, pur-
chases made in the height of prosperity
at inflated prices, and without thought
Of the futures possibilities, reach
saner valuation, more comparable with
present prices which undoubtedly rep
resent the proper and basic worth of
property or commodities.
Thus even when we are spending
what available funds we have in banks
or pockets. we are really saving money,
and there are many who see clearly
that when these economic clouds lift
again, and the sun of general prosperity
shines once more, they will begin the
new day, not with a greater burden of
Indebtedness, but perhaps with no debt
at all. This emancipation, of course,
Is chiefly for those who have some
money, either in savings or in con-
tinued earnings. Those now unem-
ployed, who spent every centavo of their
salaries or wages when their services
were in demand, must now, because of
their fatuous complacency and impru-
dence, forego this opportunity to arrive
at healthful economic balance.

The effect produced by the expecta-

days at the end of September. The
figures are for arrivals in London.
The wireless parts and sets for Octo-
ber %, 20 and 80 totaled 9,4O0. On
the corresponding three days in Septem-
ber they totaled $3.50. Of batteries,
the arrivals were 1850, as against
$500. Of electrical machinery, the
arrivals were &1O,400, as against fS,80O.
1t is not expected that these proper

figures for November are expected to
be very much in excess of those Of Sep
tember.

Depression Brings
Debt Payments.

La Prensa, Buenos Aires.-Peculiarly
enough, the depression seems to be a
time for paying debts. The reasons for
this, though various, are not hard to
ascertain. For one thing, creditors
often hard pressed themselves, are gen.
orally more insistent. They are more
likely to threaten dire and immediate
consequences unless the obligation to
them is balanced. Then naturally, the
firm or individual which settles an ac-
count out of a depleted exchequer feels
entitled to the same consideration from
others. At such times, too, debts are
compromised and reduced until it is

BARKLEY PICKED
AS KEYNOTER

CHICAGO, April S QN.S0.
Democratic leaders here today
predicted that the national COM
mittee will ratify the selection
Of Senator A. w. Barkley, of
Kentucky. and Jouett Shouse as
temporary chairman and per-
manent chairman, respectively,
of the convention which convenes
in Chicago June 81.
Senator Barkley and Shouse
were named last night by the
Democratic committee on arrange
mentS.
The faction working for the
nomination of Gov. Franklin D.
Roosevelt, of New York, supported
Senator Barkley for keynoter
while the selection of Shouse as
permanent chairman favored the
So-calledN Smith.Raskob-S h ouSe e
element.
The compromise was effected
at meeting of a subcommittee
appointed at the beheSt of the
Roosevelt workers after a day of
fruitleSS pickering.

TESTHELDDRAN|
IN ROOSEVELT
PARTY FIGHT

The first test of strength be-
tween the Roosevelt and anti
Roosevelt forces for control Of
the Democratic national conven-
ton has resulted in q draw, &C
cording to interpretations placed
here today upon the selection
of convention chairman at Chi
cago.
The Roosevelt managers had
their way about selecting Senator
A. w. Barkley of Kentucky to
be temporary chairman and key
noter" of the convention, but
only at the price of accepting
Jouett Shouse as permanent
chairman.
Of the two, the permanent
chairman is perhaps the more
important, as he presides over
all sessions after the opening
day.
The anti-Roosevelt forces did
not want Barkley, and the Roose-
velt forces did not want ShouSe
as they consider him too closely
identified with the Raskob-Smith
administration. One objection to
Barkley was that he is a dry.
Democratic interest turned to-
day toward Wisconsin, where the
Roosevelt and anti-Roosevelt
forces clash again in a primary
to elect 26 convention delegates.
Two states are in the field, one
openly for Roosevelt and the
other unpledged but generally IA
vorable to former Governor Al
fred E. Smith.
