Soviet Assures u. ).
None OF Purchases

Oumonsky Files Protest
On Seizure of Mail;
Investigation Launched
By the Associated Press.

B, the Associated Press.
United States concern that Ameri-
can goods sold to Russia might find
their way to Germany brought
from the Soviet government yes
terday assurances that all purchases
made here were destined eXclu-
sively" for domestic use.
The Soviet declaration was made
by Constantine Oumansky, the Rus
sian Ambassador. during discussions
with Sumner Welles, Undersecre-
tary of State. concerning Soviet
American trade in particular, and
general relations between the two
nations.
The State Department also dis
closed that Mr.. Oumansky had pro-
tested against seizure of mail from
Russia, alleged to contain propa-
ganda, and that an investigation
was in progress to determine wheth-
er any mail matter-other than
propaganda-had been confiscated.
The Post Office Department re-
Gently confscated $4,000 pieces of
mail weighing Is tons, mostly from
Russia and Germany, on the ground
that the mailers were not registered
with the State Department as
agents of a foreign government.
The State Department made no
comment on Mr. Oumansky's pledge
that Soviet purchases were destined
only for Russia The statement
was interpreted in informed quar-
tiers, however, as the Soviet's dis
claimer of British allegations that
considerable amounts of such pur-
chases were being transhipped to
Germany or were imported to re-
place materials delivered to Ger
many.
Viscount Halifax. the British Am
bassador, raised the question in re-
cent discussions with Secretary Hull
and Undersecretary Welles. and
both officials promised an investi-
cation.
Soviet purchases in the United
States in 1910 totaled $86,943, 900,
including chiefly rubber, copper and
tin Only Great Britain and
France, which purchased huge
amounts of war materials, were big
ger buyers of American goods.
General export restrictions be-
cause of the defense program have
hampered Russian purchases here
in recent months. In his conversa-
tions with Mr.. Welles. Mr.. Ouman-
sky has made repeated efforts to
secure export licenses for a num-
ber of American products, particu-
larly machine tools.

time. They are counting now on
80 votes against the bill-which
would leave 62 votes for 1t, if the
total membership of the Senate is
counted. There Is one vacancy.
The opposition is counting further
on the possibility of another eight
or ten votes being won over. This
would still be short Of a majority.
If any such hopes are realized,
all talk of anything approaching
unity" in support of the bill van
ishes.
This is admittedly another aim
of opponents. They insist the Pres
ident would not be in position
that he had a mandate to grant
to Britain such aid as would per-
haps bring about the involvement
of the United States in the war.
The opposition is viewing with
satisfaction the huge amount OF
mail reaching individual Senators,
much of it in opposition to the
measure. They maintain that 1t is
having its effect on Senators who
have not committed themselves to
support the bill. So heavy was the
mail received, it was said, that the
Senate post office has had to con-
fine itself on some days to handling
only first-claSs mail.
Ellender Plan Strategy Studied.
The Ellender amendment has been
regarded as possibly the amend
ment which would receive the great
est number of supporting votes.
The opponents, however, are weigh
ing the advantages and disadvan-
tages of the adoption of the amend
ment. Some feel that if the amend
ment was adopted, Senators who
they now hope will vote against the
bill will support it on the final roll
call. They are trying to decide
whether it is better to have the
amendment written into the bill
and have a smaller vote against
passage, or to have a larger opposi-
ton vote wi en- the final showdown
comes
Several opponents who have al

a number of hours have prepared
or are preparing speeches which
will consume still more time. Sem
ator Nye of North Dakota, for ex-
ample, who has discussed the bill
at length in the Senate. has one or
two speeches still to be made. He
plans one dealing with Britain's
aggressions in the past. There is
possibility of still another speech
devoted exclusively to an attack on
Wendell L. Willkie, Republican
presidential nominee last year. be-
cause of his present support of the
lease-lend bill.
The development of the unde-
clared fiibuster has been skillfully
achieved by the leaders opposing
the bill. They first estimated that
general debate would be concluded
last Tuesday and that amendments
would then be the order of the day.
Their second estimate was that gen.
eral debate would close by last
night. That, now, has been cast
into the discard and the prospect
of general debate reaches out.

DR.. Rutland pointed out that
added to the administrative advan-
tages of one center instead of sep
arate clinics was the advantage to
the patient who would no longer
have to be publicly labeled" for the
particular treatment he was receiv-
ing.
Denying that there existed any
conflict between the services of a
health center and out-patient de-
partmentS, he said the clientele of
health centers was drawn from the
medically INDECENT and not from
the patients who could afford hos
pital clinic service.
In his letter to the Hospital Su-
perintendents' Association, DR..
Rutland asserted that health CEN
ters have been a recognized feature
in the public health service for
more than 25 years, that health
centers in other cities have not in
fringed on hospitals, that the pro-
posed health center Is designed to
house existing facilities, that it is
intended only for the medically
INDECENT and not pay or part-pay
patients, that the center would pro-
vide housing for certain laboratory
services and personnel of the de-
partment, that it would provide
dental service for the medically in
digent, would serve the interest of
popular health education and would
afford opportunity to undergrad
uate medical students.

DRY WEATHER CURTAILS
SOMERSET'S BERRY CROP

Somerset's famous strawberry crop
started to market for the 1941 season
Saturday, May 10th, when Mr.. o.
Harry Miller, of Princess Anne and
Mr.. Omar J. Reading of Upper Mt.
Vernon, picked the first "a crates for
shipment. On the same day Marion
shippers marketed four crates.
On Monday, May 18th, Is crates
were shipped from Princess Anne and
1875 from Marion, at prices ranging
from SITS to $3.50 most sales being
made at $500.
In addition to Mr.. Miller and Mr..
Reading, among the first shippers at
Princess Anne were Messrs. Bailey
Thomas, Peter Layfield, Roland Kohl
helm, Philip Layfield and Harry Fitz-
gerald.
In both Princess Anne and Marion,
growers report serious curtailment
of the berry crop this season due to
the unusually severe damage from
the clipper weevil and the long con-
tinued dry weather. Most reliable
estimates made from careful crop sur
veys in Mt. Vernon, Princess Anne,
Westover, Kingston, Shelltown and
Marion, indicate that two-fifths of
the berries have been destroyed.
Marion growers with the largest
acreage to harvest in the county, re-
port very serious shortage of labor
for the harvest. Many of the pick
ers who usually come from Virginia
are not available for the work this
spring, it is said.
