incurred by the Gar and the Kerensky agents Of the
allied bandits in the last world war. All Of this
money was used by the Czarst lice to pay for their
foul orgies, to keep the Russian people enslaved
and to conduct a war Of plumber and booty. A
representative Of American capitalism Congress
man McFsdden of Pennsylvania in discussing the
johnson bill acknowledges this:
q am frank to say to you" admitted McFad-
den. that the examination which 1 and other
members Of that committee made indicated that
very little of the 1877 million went to Russia. 1t
went to pay the contracts which the Russian fiscal
agent in Russia had made with business concerns
in this country for munitions, and the bulk Of
the money was used for the purpose Of paying
these munitions contracts which the fiscal agent
had placed here. Then the goods did not go to
Russia, and were resOld and manipulated by Mr..
Bakhmetiev, Kerensky's agent, and Mr.. Serge
Ughet, the liquidating agent; and what became
Of the money? When we started to investigate it
there was over sixty million dollars in deposit
with the National City Bank Of New York. and
when we completed our examination, in about
two weeks time funds had been drawn down to
one million dollars. And mind you the state
department and treasury department referred
Congress to Mr.. Bakhmetiev for information as to
where these funds went"
pEFORE coming to power the leaders of the revo-
lutionary workers and peasants in Russia warned
the allied governments that these criminal loans
made to Kerensky would not be paid, and that they
should not be made.
Now the Roosevelt government delivers a blow
at both the American and Soviet workers. 1t de-
priveS the Soviet government of American credit,
practically wiping out trade with the workers
fatherland deprving American workers of jobs, and
increasing the danger of war against the Soviet
Union.
Every American worker all organizations
sympathetic to the Soviet Union, everybody in
terested in the free flow of trade with A Gov
ERNMENT THAT HAS NEVER ONCE DE-
FAULTED its Just debts, should protest. Wire
your Congressman and Senator demanding the
opening Of trade and credits with the Soviet
Union. Send resolutions Of protests to President
Roosevelt demanding the Soviet Union be given
the credit facilities that rightfuly belong to it.
