RECOVERY THREAT SEEN
DUE TO LACK OF CREDIT
Chicago u. Professor Declares
Banks Must Act to Prevent
Modification of System.

BY the Associated Press
CHICAGO, December 9-Prof. Paul
Douglas of the economics department
of the University of Chicago, in an
address tonight, asserted that unless
banks expanded credit recovery would
be endangered and some modification
of the banking system might be nee
essary.
His remarks were given i'll a discus
sion of the N r. A. with Clarence Dar-
row, internationally known attorney.
The addresses were broadcast over
the Columbia Broadcasting System.
Darrow expressed the opinion that
criticism had increased recently against
the N r. A. because people. as a re-
suit of positive action by the admin
istration, were over the fear that held
them last March.
And that is the reason" he said
I'VE need to call attention of this
country to the great necessity of car
rying out this program"

AMI became widely-known publisher
Of belles-Lettres. died yesterday of
pneumonia in his 50th year.
With Albert Boni, he founded the
Modern Library" in 1917 and watched
it become one Of the worlds most
popular series of reprints. He was
called the first publisher to take an
active interest In Eugene O'Neill. and
he lent encouragement to Theodore

and many others.
After early schooling in the mining
town Of Osceola Mills, Pa. he became
an Office boy for Philadelphia broker
and later a successful securities execu-
tive in New York.
But his real passion was literature
and he turned to publishing. His rule
about young authors. his friends said,
was always to give their first books a
chance because their second might be
good.
OF recent years he devoted a large
part of his interest to producing plays.
and in 1880. severed his connection
with the publishing firm Of Liveright,
Inc. Among the plays he presented
to the New York public were AN
American Tragedy" and "Dfacula"
He was a vigorous foe of censorship
and engaged in more than one skirmisl
with John S. Summer Of the Society

 Russian Opinion Aroused
 This naturally caused Russian opinion to lump the United States in with other Allied powers which were making open attempts to undermine the Soviets. If guilty at All in this, the United States was certainly less guilty than the others. And the efforts of all of them only served to put the Boi- sheviki in the position of defend- CTS of their country from froeignl invasion, rallying even conserva-' tive Russians to the only govern ment they had.
 When the armistice was signed and the World war ended, there was no longer any reason for American troops in Russia as a threat against Germany. Senators Borah and Johnson reused public opinion to demand the troops re- call. and this was done.
  The Soviet government had repudi- ated the Kerensky debts. and So- viet envoys Martens was deported just before the Harding admtnis- tration came in.
 U. S. Refuses Recognition
 The. Soviets made immediate overtures to that administra- tiun, but Secretary of State Hughes was cold. He reiterated the req sons for non-recognition by Will sons Secretary Colby:
 l. Repudiation of debts. 2. Propaganda.
 3. Despotsim and no basis in the popular will for the Soviet gov. ernemnt.
 Hughes also added that normal, relations could not be established until "the safety of life the recog- milton by firm guarantees Of pri- vate property, the sanctity of con- tract and the rights of free labor" were established. Under Coolidge, Secretary Hughes in 1893 laid down a flat policy that the United States would not even discuss recognition until adjustments of the Russian debts to the American government and to private indivt-I duals whose property had bene con- fiscated. He indignantly dismissed a Russian counter-claim for. dam- ages alleged due to intervention.

all the combatants. None answered but Germany. whose forces, un- opposed, were invading deep into Russia.
 After an armistice in December, the Bolsheviki, through Foreign Minister Trotzky, called on the allied governments to make a joint peace with Germany. Trotzky's proposal carried a distinct threat that if those governments didn't, their people would rise and over- throw them. We promise every support to the working classes in every country which will rise against their own national Im- perialists. chauvinists, and mili- tarists," said Trotzky.
 Russia Out of War
 None answered, and meanwhile German troops drew near to Petrograd. Germany was able to dictate the peace of Brest- Litovsk on March 3, 1918, which took Rus sia out of the war and gave Ger many huge slices of Rassia's east ern territories.
 It was during this confused pe- riod of early 1918, with the Ger mans advancing their capture of Petrograd expected almost daily, counter-revolutions moving against the Bolsheviki, and utmost confu- sion in organizing Bolshevik Russia, that the foreign diplomats all left Petrograd.
 Ambassador Francis, vowing he would never desert the Rus sian people until ordered home, moved westward to Vologda, a
