RUSSIA WILL NOT LIFT THE SCREEN.
A PERMIT TO INSPECT WHEAT FARMS REFUSED (United Press Assn.—By Electric Telegraph—Copyright.) (Received March 18, 10.45 a.m.) LONDON, March 17. The authorities at Moscow have refused a Canadian journalist in London permission to go to Russia in order that he might inspect the State wheat farms, presumably owing to Canada’s recent action against dumping and a desire to prevent publicity regarding the methods under which the peasants’ confiscated farms are now conducted by men and women labourers, living in barracks in shocking conditions, the disclosure of which would be detrimental to the disposal of the grain abroad.
