RUSSIA AND BRITAIN
ATTACK BY COMMISSAR BETTER LOAN TERMS WANTED LONDON, March 26. The Soviet Government will refuse to buy more equipment from abroad unless it is granted on long-term loans at low rates of interest. This was announced by Mr. Rosenholz, Commissar for Foreign Trade, addressing the Seventeenth Communist Party Congress at Moscow. The second five-year plan, he declared, could be carried out with an insignificant import of foreign industrial equipment—less than 300 million gold roubles’ worth, or less than double the value of such imports, for the last year alone. Mr. Rosenholz, according to the Sunday Times Moscow correspondent, attacked tho British Government for “deliberately attempting to force the Soviet Union into bankruptcy,” “by an embargo,” and described the Birmingham Institute of Russian Studies is “a gang of bloody White State Guards,” who arc trying to prove I hat me Soviet is going bankrupt.
