UTVINOFF HOPES
FOR QUICK ACTION
IN UNITED STATES
BERLIN, Oct. 28 lP) Ruuoo-American
relations can be reestablished
within a half-hour, so far as MaxUn
Litvlnoff, soviet foreign commissar, is
concerned.
Deluged with requests of American
correspondents to receive them. Lit
vlnoff ibroke his self-imposed pledge
not to talk en route to Washington
jor discussions with President Roose-
To a 'barrage of questions as to the
problems to be discussed with Presi
dent Roosevelt and the effect of rec
ognition upon Russia's economlo re
lations to other nations, Litvlnoff
said:
"As far as I am concerned, every
thing could be settled In a half
hour." After a pause, he summed tip tho
effect of recognition, however, by
saying that "every new relationship
established .'between two nations must
to some degree effect the relations
of all other countries."
A specific question as to whether,
for example, there would be a new
distribution of Russian orders fo
goods, Litvlnoff said "that is some
thing to be decided later."'
Litvlnoff denied reports that the
choice of the first Russian ambassa
dor to the United States already had
been made, saying, "all speculation
concerning that In the press has been
wrong."
Of Senator William G. McAdoo's re
cent visit in Russia, he insisted "Mr.
McAdoo visited me in a purely per
sonal capacity."
Litvlnoff expressed the opinion
that one week In America ought to
be enough to accomplish his mission.
