RUSSIA NEEDS
TRADE CREDIT
WITH AMERICA!
NEW YORK. Aug. 11—<*V- A
©oncerted program to restore Rus-
sian-American trade to its lormer
levels—over $100000000 a year-
had advanced to a point today
where it was evident that the
largest remaining problem to be
solved was that of Russia s ability
to furnish suitable guarantees for
credit.
Studying Records
James P. Warburg president of
the International Acceptance bank.
Inc . it was learned is now in
Europe where he is believed to be
studying Russia's record in its
dealings with European countries.
In its own negotiations with New
York banks principal among them
the Chase National bank it was
revealed that the soviet govern-
ment's trade and financial obliga-
tions had been met promptly and
fully.
Wall street banking interests re-
ported that unofficially the United
States government is In favor of
any well-founded plan which
would serve to open up the large
Russian markets to American
goods.
Only meagre information was
available today about a reported
plan of th© Russian soviet govern-
ment to issue internal bonds bear-
ing a 10 per cent interest rate
which would be redeemable in
gold on demand.
Exports Haro Crown
American exports to Russia
have grown steadily since 1923
with no major interruptions until
the start of 1932. In 1923 they
totaled $4550000; in 1930 they
reached their peak at $114339000
and In 1931 they approximated
$103000000 In the first half of
this year they shrank to less than
$6000000
Principal American exports con-
sist of agricultural and electrical
machinery.

Absentee Voters
Get Time Cut On
Lack Of Ballots
AUSTIN. Aug. 11 — A*— Absentee
voting was delayed In the demo-
cratic run-off primary because
the ballots were not ready last
Monday all because the legislature
at its last session amended one
law and forgot to alter another
to conform.
The absentee voting law was
changed to make it possible for
persons who planned to be away
from home on election day to
mark their ballots not more than
20 days or less than three days
CUB GAMBLING
CHARGES MADE
CHICAGO. Aug. 11—<**>— A
Special dispatch to the Chicago
Dally News from Pittsburgh today
said that Baseball Commissioner
Kencsaw Mountain Landis had
opened a sweeping Investigation
of charges that several members
of the Chlcfgo Cubs Including
Pitcher Guy Bush had been gam-
bling on Vie horses during the
managerial regime of Rogers
Hornsby
Commissioner Landis the dis-
patch said went to Pittsburgh to-
day to open the Inquiry as the
Cubs arrived for their first place
battle with the Pirates. He refused
to discuss the investigation the
dispatch added but told reporters
to “draw your own conclusions."
Th<> News quoted Commissioner
Land:* as saying yesterday before
he departed for Pittsburgh that:
“Gambling tvnt like drunken-
ness if jr* a drunkard you have
to deal with you can give him a
shower and an aspirin and send
him out on the field and he will
o!ay ball for you or at least try
*?ut when you have a player out
•here on the field wondering
during a crucial moment of the
ball game whether raggedy pants
cr some other nag is going to run
first or second the situation be-
comes acute.
"It Is a thing that I and the
executives of every ball club In
both circuits wart to stamn out
and we ll stamp It out even If It
means the wrecking of valuable
ball clubs
“The respective owners would
rather see their ball clubs blown
to atoms than **:at such a thing
creep into their teams one scan-
dal such as we had In 1919 is
enough.

before the primary. The old law
provided thiy could vote not more
than ten or kss than three days
before the primary.
However the legislature left in-
tact the law which llxed the date t
for the state democratic executive
committee to meet and canvass
the primary vote. It is not pos-
sible for the run-off ballots to
be printed until this canvass has
taken place and the namos of
those in the second primary certi-
fied to the county cnalrmen for
the second primarv.
Hence two or three days were
cut from the period in which
absentee ballots may be cast.
Weaver Moore of Houston
brother-in-law of former Gov
Dan Moody is a candidate in the
democratic run-off primary for
one of the Harris county places in
the Texas house of representatives
His opponent is P. N Murphy a
P7-year-old minister. Weaver is 31. I
He was high man In a field of
I fourteen candidates for the place
in the first primary. He is ad-
vocating repeal of national and
state prohibition and a return to
“sane and sensible- liquor control.
Murphy a life’ong prohibitionist
said he favored resubmissicn of
the Eighteenth Amendment.
"Condition' are such and public
opinion is such that it would be
unreasonable to stand against
resubirission- Murphy said. -How-
ever. in principle I am a prohibi- j
tionist.

hat Is a "hard at ram" with Its
crown badlv battered Speaking
from a truck in the l'**Ie town
of Buffalo the Governor let his
hat slip frcm his hands to the
ground. There mas a scramble of
bystanders to pick it up.
“That old hat has saved irv
head manv bump*." the governor
I nonchalantly remarked. “It has
about done Its tew\c§ and I would
not be surprised* if someone did
not make me a present of a new
one before this campaign ends"
The weather was pretty warm
j along the route traversed by Gov-
ernor Sterling in his hunt for votes
j last week. He was not noticing
the heat as much as some others
however until he got to Teague. |
