HEAR ARGUMENTS UPON TRADING WITH RUSSIA Declare Millions of Supplies Could Be Sold to the Soviet Govenhnent WiU America Fill the Bowl? No Food foEurope's Children Unless Americano Send Relief "WASHINGTON, Jan.' 26. Arguments for and against resumption' of trade with soviet Russia were receveU to day by the senate foreiern relations committee, who a!so heard charges that the state department was actually mintaining a blockade against that country, although techincally none was rnpposed to exist. Spokesmen for organized workers in many lines of .industry appeared to support the resolution of i Senator . France, Republican, Maryland, which would enable American firms to ac cept crold of the old imperial Russian government which is being offered by the soviet authorities- in payment for . foreign roods. They said resumption of trade would go a long way toward relieving the present industrial depres sion which has thrown more . than three million persons out of eniploy-ment-John Spargo, of New York, who has written extensively on Ruesian condi tions, expressed the tJpposite opinion. In a formal statement which was ad mitted to the lcord, he declared that renewal of trade "might easily prove the means of bringing about the col lapse ot our entire economic system," as vast credits would have to be ex - tended to carry on the trade. v Declaring that Lenine and Trozky monopolized Russian trade. Senator Brandegee, Republican, Connecticut asked how it would be possible to i work out plans for trade with Rus sia without dealing with them, Sena ' tor France replied that "British states men have worked out a plan for the possession of the whole of Russian . ' trade" and that he believed American statesmen have ability equal to that of Tthe British. Charges that the state department mantained an actual blockade against soviet Russia were presented to the committee by Mrs. Harriett Stanton Blatch and Miss Lucy Branham, of the , American women's emergency com mittee. They declared that the depart ment had prevented their organization from sending clothing and foodstuffs to needy Russian children and that ships actually loaded had been pre vented fTom going to Russia. v Finally, thay said, the committee had been forced to send Its supplies to s, the American Friend's society In A Kngland for transportation to Russia. Iiabor representatives 'before 'the ' committee included E. C. Davison, sec- retary of. the International Association of Machinists; Joseph Sclossberg, rep resenting , the Amalgamated Clothing Workers of America, ar Timothy Ilealy, president of the Brotherhood of Firemen and Oilers. Mr.' Davison said the Russians needed 15,000 locomotives and that the construction of these in this country would give , employment to many railroad workers who have ..v been laid off. ; . ' ' Mr. Sclossberar declared th'at . 000,000 Russians were badly lnv need of clothing, shos and many other things and that the supplying of these from America would cause the re sumption of activity In - the textile, leather and other Industries.
