SOVIET CAN'T BUY
ship MATERIALS
Steel Plants Too Busy With
Home Orders, Including
Those of u. S.
~ the Associated Press.

MOSCOW, April 17.-Soviet Rus
sia's purchases Of materials for war
ships ran into difficulties today be-
cause, she learned some steel manu-
facturers are too busy filling domestic
orders to bother with foreign ones.
Nikolai Bogomoloff, Soviet trade
delegate to Great Britain, returned to
Moscow with the news that British
firms are "swamped," handling huge
orders for that nations rearmament
program.
United States circles here heard
that Amtorg, Russian trading cor
poration, was unable to renew a steel
order with one company in the United
States because of heavy domestic de-
mands. The company was said to
have offered q premium to be released
from delivering previous order.
The Soviet commiSsariat of defense
declined to comment on State De-
partment announcement in Wash
tngton that two American firms had
asked permission to fill Russian Or
ders for battleship materials.
Ship Protection Needed.
The talk here is that Russia wants
to build new warships because of
the rapid development Of her mer-
chant marine and recent evidence
that the present navy cannot protect
that merchant marine In such waters
Is those of Spain.
Bogomoloff, in an interview with
the newspaper Pravda, expressed con-
cern over the possibility of getting
orders from British firms. He warned
Russians they might not fully utilize
the ten million sterling credit (about
50,000000) granted them by Eng
land on July 81, 1896, unless nor
NAL conditions prevail"
Up to April l the Russian govern
ment had placed orders totaling 5000
sterling (about s325,000 but will not
get some of them delivered for "a
months. The Russians refused to
place orders with many British firms
1t was said, because prices were con-
sidered eXorbitant.
Reported Licensing.
ment said representatives of two un-
identified firms had been told licenses
for export of battleship parts to Ali
Russian orders probably would be is
sued upon request. The Government
objected, however, to any contractual
clause providing that United States
Navy of1icials test guns before deliv-
cry. Oflcials also said specifications
for 16-inch guns would need Clarity
ing as to whether they we're intended
for an expanded Soviet naval pro-
gramD
The writer, Vigilis, spokesman for
the Kremlin, in an article in the
newspaper Izvestia, attacked economic
talks of DR.. Hjalmar Schacht, Ger
man minister for economics, in Brus-
sels this week and declared rumors
Of Soviet-German rapprochement
were fairy tales"
