Strained official relations between
the United States and Soviet Russia
was given today as one reason for
blocking plans to erect a new Amer
ican Embassy in Moscow in the i'm
mediate future.
The Foreign Service Building Com
mission, headed by Chairman Nc

Committee, it was learned. already is
considering ALLEGATION of $1,100.0 600
previously earmarked for construction
of the new embassy for building pur-

Administration officials declined
further comment on the future of
Soviet-American relations, brought
into question by Secretary of State
HulPs statement of policy Saturday
night in which he asserted continued
friendly intercourse depended ION the
attitude and action of the Soviet
government" in suppressing Subversive
activities of the Third Internationale,
a worldwide Communist organization.
After reviewing relations between
the two Nations since recognition Of
the Soviet Union, Hull said fatty the
United States held the Soviet Union
accountable under the pledge of nom
interference given President Roosevelt
by Foreign Commissar Litvinoff, for
unfriendly acts and propaganda
originating in Russia which had a
bearing on this country.
Observers here interpreted Hull's
statement-which was not sent to
Moscow and calls for no reply-as
placing responsibility for curbing
the Third Internationale's activities
squarely up to the Soviet authorities.
officials said piegonholing of plans
for construction of the Moscow en-
bassy was not entirely caused by the
controversy over Communistic agita-
tion. Although building plans have
been completed for some time, en-
bassy officials are understood to have
encountered numerous obstacles dur
ing the last year and the project was
making extremely slow headway.
