RECOGNITION HELD !
NEAR FOR SOVIET
Inauguration of Roosevelt
Hailed by Foreign Policy

with the Inauguration Of the Roose-
velt administration, the recognition OF
the Soviet government appears more
probable than at any time since 1917
said a review of the American attitude
toward Russia, published today by the
Foreign Policy Association.
According to some observers" the
report added, recognition should be
accorded as early as possible in the
administration, both to stimulate Soviet
American trade and to facilitate col
alteration Of the United States and the
Soviet Union-the two great non
League powers-in concerting measures
to support the Leagues recommended
lions concerning the Far Eastern
crisis"
Meanwhile Senator Borah, Of Idaho,
and other advocates OF Russian recog-
milton are keeping the problem alive.
BY them, however. to await some def
mite cue from the White House before
making a concerted move.
Thorough Probe Demanded.
Notice already has been served on
Capitol Hill that demand will be
made for detailed Senate investigation
before action is taken.
Among some advocates Of recognition
herc It is felt that the Moscow-go govern-
ment, now Is years old. has passed the
stage where 1t welcomes commissions
of investigation from foreign powers
considering the problem of granting
recognition. Recent statements OF
Moscow officials indicate that any
power seeking to establish diplomatic
relations with the Soviet republic must
approach it on basis Of equality in
accordance with diplomatic practice.
Ofhcially the American Government.
up to the present administration, has
taken the position that Russia would
be granted recognition only upon set
Nement Of the Russian debt to this Gov
ernment the settling Of claims Of Amer
cans whose property was taken over
By the Soviet government and the
pledge that Communist propaganda
would not be carried on in this country.
This policy was formulated by Chief
Justice Charles Evans Hughes as Secre-
tAry Of State and was reStated by Secre-
taries Kellogg and Stimson with slight
alterations.
- Roosevelt Still Silent.
What action will be taken by Presi-
hts mind has not been disclosed Off
oially.
The report, published today, was
written by Vera M. Dean and covered
ct some length the effect Of recognition
On Soviet-American trade.
1t said many competent observers
contend that the. Soviet. gov
eminent Is not as anxious for recogni-
ton today, when 1t has consolidated its
International position, as in the early
years Of its existence, when it was con-
fronted by q hostile world and that the
longer recognition Is delayed, the more
0tmcult 1t will be for the United States

Union"

the acquisition of the assets of The White
Motor Company. As a result of the atti.
tude of the small minority group, these
assets Of White have not yet been merged
with those of Studebaker. Furthermore,
the terms under which these notes were
issued have made it impossible, in the pres
ent banking situation, for Studebaker to
secure its customary financial accommoda.
tions.
Studebaker's competitive position in
the industry has been improving steadily.
During each of the past four years Stude.
baker-built cars have secured larger pro-
portion of total registration than in the
previous year.
The four lines of trucks-White,
Pierce-Arrow, Studebaker and Indiana
now sold by The White Company, showed
larger dollar volume last year than any
competing company except Ford and
Chevrolet. With these four lines of trucks,
White branches made better showing in
January 1888 than in January 1882,
when general conditions were much better.
There will be no variation whatsoever
in the quality Of Studebaker and Rockne
workmanship. Studebaker and Rockne
automotive products will continue to he
built without interruption or change, by
Studebaker men. This pioneering organi-
zation has already faced and fought and
triumphed over more 'depressions," wars
and ''bad times" than any other company
in the automobile business.
Studebaker now confidently carries on,
assured that it can continue to offer the
American public the kind of automobiles
and service for which the name Studebaker
is distinguished.

baker would be protected until certain

proposed merger with The White Motor
Company are adjusted. .-..,-
The Stndebaker-White Merger
Six months ago it was decided unani.
mous1y by the respective boards of direc.
tors of The Studebaker Corporation and
The White Motor Company, that many
economies and commercial advantages
would result from a merger. A plan look.
ing toward this merger was submitted to
the stockholders of The White Motor Com
pany. Within short time 95 per cent of
the White stock was turned in, manifesting
the almost unanimous approval Of White
stockholders.
In recent months, however, holders of
approximately per cent of the White
stock have threatened litigation against the
merger unless their stock were purchased
at price which Studebaker directors felt
to be unreasonable and upon terms which
it was impossible to meet. Studebaker rec
ognizes the right of minority stockholders
to set any price they please on their White
stock-even, as in this case, a price higher
than it has commanded on the open market
at any time since 1929. In addition to pri.
vate negotiations for this minority stock,
Studebaker offered a plan of consolidation
under which its value could have been e.
tablished BY court appraisal, but the minor.

H. S. Vance, Vice President of The Stude-
