MOSCOW, July g. Joseph Stain,
Russias strong man, and Vyacheslaf
Molotoff, chairman Of the Council of
Peoples Commissars, issued a joint
decree today calling for mobilization
of the nations agricultural resources
to insure the success of the harvest
Of all crops.
Ordering an avoidance of the mis-
takes of last year resulting in large
losses of grain, sugar beets and other
crops, the decree called for the ex-
tension of the piece-work system in
repayment for labor on collective state
farms.
A scale of bonuses was set up (pre-
sumably similar to the piece-work re-
ward system resorted to in industry
involving increments In money and
crops for those exceeding quotas. A
reduction in wages for those falling
behind was provided.
The order also called on factories to
exert utmost efforts to supply agricul-
tural collectives with necessary ma
chinery.

NEW YORK, July 6.-The sound of

II suppose was little frightened

a strange, terrifying effect on me-"
No longer the airy-footed Peter Pan
who thrilled a generation Of children
with her magic stage flying, the Maude
Adams Of today has the same soft
laugh, the same ethereal quality OF face
and gesture, the same charm IN her
smile as of old.
She found trouping "just as exciting"
as it used to be. There used to be un-
certainty because of railroad connec-
tions, she explained, but now 1t is be-
cause of theaters changing hands so
rapidly.
I'VE played in some strange, quaint
places" she said In some tremendous
big houses, too The biggest, think,

hear beyond the third row, anyhow"

RECOGNITION MOVE
MADE IN MOSCOW
American Holds Unofficial
Parley as Result of Con-
verSationc Here.
~ the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
MOSCOW, July 6.-An unofficial
move to reopen the question of for
NAL recognition by the United States
of the Soviet government was under
way here today, and there was reason
to believe it was being met with favor
by Soviet officials.
The move was made by Col. Frederick
Pope. New York industrialist, acting
alone and in a private capacity. Col.
Pope presented to Soviet officials a
suggestion that the United States send
an unofficial commissioner to Russia
as a preliminary to negotiations for
the establishment of normal relations
between the two countries.
Attends Special Meeting.
He laid the matter before a special
meeting of men high in the Soviet
regime, among them V. I. Mezhlauk,
vice chairman of the State Planning
Commission; V. v. Ossinsky, head OF
the central administration of the Ma
tional Economic Council; E. V. Ruolnln,
head of the American department OF
the commissariat for foreign affairs,
and Karl Radek. Russia'S foremost IN
ternational political commentator.
He presented, it was learned, an ac-
count of satisfactory" conversations
he had held on the subject IN Ger
tain quarters in Washington Just De-
fore he sailed for Russia late last May.
Col. Pope is expected to return 10
the United States this month, and the
prospect was that he would renew ms
conversations there. In view OF the
favorable reception accorded MS pre-,
posal here the next move probably VIII
depend on the outcome OF his Wasning-
ton conversations.
Own Interest Personal.
Americas persistent refusal to recog-
nize the Soviet government has oeen
the source of constant DISAPPOINTMENT
here ON a previous visit Col. Pope
also brought the matter up with lnol-
vidusls with whom he had business
Contracts as head of the Nitrogen Engl-
neering Corporation, and the sympathy
he found in those talks led TO the most
recent meeting.
He said his own interest was per
sonal. as man who does puSinsSo
with Russia, but he also expressed tlls
,oai3af 10th countries would be benefited
FroT, c1,T a business standpoint by recog-
nitinn besides the aid and comfort
that would be given to Americans
working here. II.
Soviet purchases of industrial equip
wont in the United States are being
held to the minimum possible" he said
because of the present lack OF ON
cial relationship between the two coun.
tries. Millions of dollars in Soviet
orders probably would go to Amer.
ican business firms and industries
this situation were overcome.

as a boat. Then we resolved to walk
east to Wyndham.
In the meantime we caught lizards
on the rocks. which we ate raVenouSly.
We sighted another and bitter fire in
land and I set out toward it. Clause
mann remained with the plane. But
nothing came of that.
Several times I went inland in search
of blacks, but only found scrub fires.
1t was now almost hopeless. We were
weak, almost starving and nearly
finished. We put out in a rough sea
for Cape Bernia, but it was impossible
to cross the bay and for the next few
days we foundered about, thinking the
end had come. We returned to the
beach and ate snails and leaves.
On June %, to our great excitement,
we sighted a black. who brought a
large fish which we cooked and ate
ravenously. We knelt and offered
prayers to the good God for our
deliverance.
Mission Station Near.
1t was the first real food in many
many days. The black who brought it
was a mission scout and soon others
arrived with tins of meat and message
from the fathers of the mission station
Our nerves were SO strained that we
broke down with the knowledge that
we were in touch with the outside world
More blacks arrived and they returned
with our message to the mission, while
one native stayed with us and hunted
kangaroos and cooked for US.
Our strength partly returned and we
went back to our old camp float and
waited for a mission boat. On June %
a black boy rushed in with a message
from Police Constable Marshall stating
that he was on our tracks and soon
would arrive. We broke down on his
arrival with Constable Smith, after en-
bracing them both.
There is living God who cared for
us and brought us deliverance.
Hospital arrangements have been
made at Wyndham. where the flyers are
momentarily expected.

MONEY EXPANSION
ASKED BY BORAH
Senator Demands Action by
Congress to Remedy Pres
ent Conditions.
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
Demanding currency expansion be-
fore Congress adjourns, Senator Borah,
Idaho independent Republican, today
pressed his plans for approval Of legis-
lation to achieve that end.
His statement to this effect followed
an open advocacy of the Glass bill,
which would let 81, ,00o. 900. 900 Of United
States bonds have circulating privilege,
thus increasing currency to that extent
Until the fall Of prices can be ar
rested" he said. there can be no re-
turn Of trade. no lessening of unem-
ployment-and the fall of prices can
not be arrested except through the
change Of the monetary situation.
IF we do not at once adopt meas
ures for the expansion of currency and
further extension of credit, we will
come back in the Autumn facing the
proposition Of devaluating the dollar.
I'VE have sufficient gold in this coun-
try to justify upon a sound basis cur
rency expansion to the extent Of bill
lions If necessary"
Sees Disaster.
Borah said there is no possible way
to avoid disaster under the present pro-
gram" His statement follows:
Congress should not adjourn until
the problem of the expansion of the
currency has been considered. We have
sufficient gold in this country to justify
upon a sound basis currency expansion
to the extent of billions. If necessary.
We have far more than one-third Of all
the gold in the world. But hidden,
boarded. cornered, refusing to help in
this great national crisis, the country
is left paralyzed.
THE crop season is on and 1t is
literally true that In parts OF the coun-
try the farmers cannot get credit cur
rency with which to buy binding twtne.
Whatever virtues the legislation already
passed may possess, such as the Re-
construction Finance Corporation, such
legislation has not revived trade OF
started business.
Change Declared Essential.
"The forces Of defation are still ad-
vancing. Unemployment Is tncreas-
ing. Unless the fall of prices can be
arrested there can be no return of
trade, no lessening Of unemployment
and the fall Of prices cannot be ar
rested except through the change OF
the monetary situation.
"One of the greatest living author
tiles on economic and monetary prob
lens said only short time ago: The
Federal Reserve authorities control not
only the general levels Of prices in
the United States, but also the price
level Of all other gold standard
countries
"If we do not at once adopt measures
for the expansion Of currency and
further extension of credit we will come
hack in the Autumn facing the propo-
sition of devaluating the dollar. There
is literally no possible way to avoid
disaster under the present program"
