the United StaJ.es soon to Inves
tigate possibilities for Increased
commerce between the two coun
tries offered by the new American
export-import bank, recently char
tered at Washington to facilitate
Russian trade, it was learned to
day. Official circles made It plain,
however, the expected trade re
vival will be based on terms which
communist leaders consider fa
vorable to the Soviets.
Russia will require, it was said,
purchases here keep pace with
sales of United States products in
the soviet union. One fair-sized
sale of 1 250,000 worth of linen
goods just has been made here
by a New York firm, but there
has been little other major com
mercial activity.
Trade talks will be held, also,
between William C. Bullitt, new
American ambassador, and soviet
leaders here. Bullitt is convinced
if the United States expects to get
many orders from Russia in the
future, American purchases of
Russian products must be In
creased. 1

Yesterday's protest did not sur
prise elrtt works officers here. In-'
dividual complaints against the
wage curtailment hare been num
erous, especially among the rural
crewt, who work but IB hours a
week In contrast with those in
the city on a 24 hour week basis,
according to Frank Hrubetx, field
man. U
"None of the protests had been
organised," Hrubets said yester
day afternoon. "But a number of
workmen on the rural crews
those who did not need work so
badly had Quit their jobs. This,
actually helped us out because we
had orders to reduce the number
of men working for us in the
county." j
The wage recommended to the.
state board for the Marion county
area was based on 1929 union
levels with a five day week. Com
mon labor, for instance, would be
raised to 50 from the present 40
cents an hour. Local officials
believe that If the proposed In
creases are approved, they will
be made retroactive to March 5,
when the reductions became effective.
