ey upon which we are now living Some men here in Seattle, be- Ing acquainted with some of our work as scientists (being them selves such, tool greeted us and, sharing our political opinions, gave us every advice and assist ance possible.
 So now we are here.
 We want to live in this great democratic country. We are not without means and we are not afraid that we shall be unable to Eprovide living for ourselves. That does. not worry us ss If the United States does not want us, we shall have to move on to some other country that does, possibly Mexico, Canada, or some South American country.
 There is definite talk in Russia there was I know, when I left, of a war against Japan, and I think that the Soviets will be unable to hold Siberia if Japan wants it. There are many Russians. I be- lieve, who look for a war with Japan as the only means of de- feat ng the Communist Party and putting the government of Russia back in the. hands of the people. But that would be a poor means of making a change, in my opin- ion, and that is why l think, be- ing Tn great sympathy with the people and system of the United States, that the recogition of the Soviets will be only to the advan- tage of the Japanese in getting influence in Siberia. The refusal of recognition would have made many friendly feelings in the hearts of the great majority of the Russians toward the Ameri- can people
 But I hope that recogn .tion is but a temporary error. which, af- ter it's real meaning is understood will be easily removed.
 Some time we shall inform the American people about the every day life of the Russ an people which is not so bright as many foreign travellers see. The con- Istant errors of these travellers are caused by the shrewd system of guiding them while they are in < Russia.
 In reality, the misery and dis tress of the Russian people ex- ceed all imagination.
 Never in the history of the world was there~sueh a situation. where the exterminat'on of the vital strength of a whole nation I is being brought about as now in Russia

 If my associate, Prof. Ivan Bor- onzoff, and I were to return to Soviet Russia, we should be shot within twenty-four hours. There isn't a doubt of it. We should be dealt with harshly. We should be surprised if we were not.
 We plotted to leave Russia be- cause life had became unbearable; because already the dreaded sec ret police had begun to suspect. We were trying to organize a re- sistanee among the masses. It would only have been quest ,on of time.
 Death is the eventual penalty for all political conviction. Death particularly for the intellectual, the despised and hated intellect ual.

 I fought in the White Army, was wounded and escaped through the Red lines. Until left Russ ia lived under an assumed name. T cannot tell you too much about this for many reasons.
 Because we were prom ,nent in even though we did not take or ders from the Communist dictat- Ors, we notwithstanding lived comfortably Professor Boronzoff and myself. Tn this respect our existence was unusual. But the squalor and misery and torture of the masses about us. the fam inc and discomfort, made us heart sick That sort of thing is un- bearable to free-minded men

 So I designed to join one of the scientific expeditions which are often organized by many scientists there, and left Moscow under the PAOSShoC Ol SOlA6 OA Q s0No1AOht III tending to engage myself in an ex petition of th.s kind when l would be in some place distant from Moscow.
 It must be said that the sym pathies of any scientists who might be leaders of such scien- tific party could be forseen cas- fly.
 Such an engagement of me would be still more easy because of my being engaged in several scientific expeditions before.
 I went from Moscow to Vlad- ivostok by the Trans-Stberian Railway. I knew my only desper- ate hope to escape. Once back in Moscow aga.n and we should new CT get away As my train crept, crawled across the bleak Siberian wilderness, I feared that we should be met at every station by an official with telegram in hand, ordering my arrest.

BY CHAS. p. SHAEFER,

Wall Street and its British equiva-
lent, Throckmorton Street, do not a.
ways speak the same language.
Entirely different meanings may be
attached to the same words in these two
leading financial districts of the world
For example, the expression "corpo-
rate stock" in the United States refers
to shares in business company. but
In London it always refers to the obliga-
tions or bonds of a municipality.
The familiar word merchant" has in
England the special meaning of our
term, investment banker" In addition,
London City" as London's financial
district is termed. has a financial jargon
all its own. Few Americans understand
such terms as "contango" or back
variation" for no practices of an
equivalent character exist in this coun-
try. The former indicates the system
whereby long commitments in securities
are carried over from one fortnightly
settlement to another, while the latter
refers to the similar carrying over Of
short commitments. In the first case
long commitments are sold out for cash
and bought for the succeeding term,
while in the second, short commitments
are bought in for cash and sold out
again for the succeeding term
Even a brief survey of the London
exchanges rules and customs reveals
Evening star., 1934-01-25

that It has resulted from . long evolu-
ton quite different in many respects
from that experienced by its Wall Street
cousin. The British legal and economic
environment in which their leading
stock exchange has grown up also diff
fers in many important respects from
that which surrounds the big board"
In New York
As with the New York Stock Exchange,
the London exchange started as curb
market without organization, rules or
in the midst Of Exchange alley it
moved toward the end Of the eighteenth
century into a coffee house called
Jonathan's. Traces of this first indoor
home still are preserved on the London
exchange Of today for its floor attend
ants are still called walters" and
still wear the old and colorful costume
Of their tavern forbears, although for
more than q century no one has ven-
tured to ask them to fetch" a kidney
pie or pewter of ale.
A striking feature Of the London
market is its term settlement system.
For many years contracts for the
purchase and sale of securities made
Exchange have been regularly settled
the next full business day by the deliv-
cry of the securities and payment Of
the money. Recently this arrangement
has been altered to provide for settle
ment on the second full business day
after the date of contract. In London,
however. there are only two settlements
each month. and contracts made on
the Stock Exchange there are thus al
lowed to accumulate over fortnight
before delivery of securities and pay
ment of money occurs.
Impressed with the economies which
attend these term settlements. some
financial students have advocated the
adoption of a similar system in New
York Our exchange officials. however,
have countered with the suggestion that
such a system would lend a greatly in
creased facility for speculation. since
contracts could be made without prompt
security deliveries or money payments.
