SUPPLYING RUSSIA
IMPORTATION OF FOODSTUFFS. BIG CARGOES ARRIVE RECENTLY “BEGINNING OF NEW ERA.” J (United Press Association—Copyright) (Received This Day, 12.20 p.m.) MOSCOW, January 9. Indications are that Russian belts will no longer need to be tightened as during the lean years, when huge supplies of foodstuffs were exported • in order to obtain foreign exchange for the payment of imported machinery. Big cargoes received in the last foi-t----night, cited as being the beginning of a new era, include 15,000 barrels of D'uteh herrings, 40 tons of Guatemala coffee, 50 tons of Ceylon tea and 25,000 cases of Java oranges. It is explained that imports of raw materials, semi-finished products and consumers’ goods, will now largely replace fonner imports of machines and tools, improving the economic position. They will reopen the Russian market to many commodities.
