TAKE TWO YEARS To Build Up Russia's Transportation System, if All Europe’s Engines ARE TAKEN THERE Says Railroad Expert— Parts Taken From One to Repair Another (By CHARLES McCANN. United Press Staff Correspondent). London, June s.—(By Mail) —“Take every railroad engine in Europe to build up that country's transportation system to normal.” x This was the startling statement made by one of the foreign office experts on the Russian trade situation, and was advanced as an argument against those who talk optimistically of getting vast supplies of grain and foodstuffs out of Russia in a day.” Russia's transportation system — isn’t. It simply doesn’t exist —as . transportation systems are conceived in countries like the United States and Great Britain, officials well informed there declare. Reliable information gleaned by the British intelligence department shows that only six out of ; very hundred engines in Russia were in working order early in 1920. And of i these six. the majority operated on I wood and other inferior fuel. i furthermore, whenever an engine broke down, the worn parts were replaced by another engine, thereby rendering that engine doubly incapacitated and immensely harder to repair when materials finally became availj able. Railway cars and freight cars also are insufficient and in bad repair Hundreds of thousands of worn-out wheels which only need re tiring are piled at the railway terminals. The airbrake system doesn't exist because only a few cars in a train have valves ; v hich are in working condition. Naturally speed in transportation is obtained only at the sacrifice of safety. Another difficulty which Russia will have to overcome before her immense transportation system can be re-estab-lished is the training and recruiting of a large force of railway employes who have the interest of the roads at heart. Since the war, the personnel of the railways, never much to speak about, has deteriorated rapidly. Thousands of the best mechanics have been killed, died of disease or left the country. Other thousands have gone into other industries or ceased work altogether for the more lucrative vocation of being a member of the “Red Army.” The will to work, investigators report. is conspicuously absent among the former laborers. Their limited taste of a Communist Utopia has merely served to whet their appetites ior more leisure. I>enin. Trotsky and company have at last realized the boomerang effect of certain of their doctrines and have taken decisive I steps to-remedy the situation. The “industrial army” was their reI ply. What its success might have been no one ventures an opinion. Unfortunately, the Polish offensive forced their immediate re-transference into fighting unites again. That Great Britain, Italy and even l-'rance are very desirous of opening up trade with Russia is unquestioned. I Europe at large desperately needs 1

grain and foodstuffs. Where it comes from is of no great moment. The reported under-acreage and poor crop prospects in America has only served to accentuate the situation. Alrealy , breadstuff's have taken unprecedented j increases here. France and Italy are ! almost certain to be on ration again | this winter. Os Germany, no one in the entente countries except the states-, men give a thought. Hut even there conditions are bound to be worse than In entente countries. Consequently the allies are as anx lous to. put Russia to work as her pro , letariat rulers themselves appear to be. Hut even though, Russia produces, i they are again confronted with th« task of getting the grain to the seaboard. What the outcome will be, nobody knows. The hopelessness ot the outlook has driven more than one ■ overnment official into despair. The most deplorable development, from the European economic viewj oint, of tlie present year thus far, is the Polish-Ukrainian offensive against jthe Bolsheviks 1 Ukrainia. the breadbasket of Russia and Central Europe, is facing a | summer and autumn of guerilla, if not major, warfare. Cultivation of her ! immeasurably rich lowlands and up--1 lands even now has become a myth. The spring planting season is half lover and the fields are being utilized ’as battlegrounds rather than grain production. Most of the parliamentary opposition to Britain’s "indefinite” attitude towards the Polish offensive is based upon economic necessity rather than 1 love for either Poland or the Soviets

Generally speaking British labor is not nearly as "utopian" as painted by leaders in Commons. But it is con cerned over whether it is to buy bread from the United States at an adverse ' rate of exchange or from Russia at a favorable one. The ‘ vicious cycle” of increased costs of living has begun to penetrate into the consciousness of, , the consumer. What he now wants is| t[a way out. Until the dispute between the Uk- - rainians and the Soviets has been settled. and Poland has retired to her le- . gitimate borders, nothing can be accomplished. Consequently, Russian | trade, which will take months to get 5 i under way after political complica- : tions have been removed, waits through seemingly unending periods of 3 I increasing political delays. 1 Suffintly—the beginning is not yet, in sight. t : , TO TEACH IN BLUFFTON I. t Miss Agnes Sellemeyer of this city! f! will teach history in the Bluffton 1 high school next year, according to announcement made from Bluffton. - Miss Sellemeyer is a graduate of the s Decatur high school, and of Indiana 1 university, and for the past two or 1 three years has successfully- taught 1 school. She will be a valuable addi a tion to the faculty of the Bluffton i- high school. She is a daughter of Hers man Sellemeyer of First street, and r- a sister of Miss Matilda Sellemeyer, f a teacher at the central building. i Japan is giving official encourage- > ment for the beginning of a sheepbreeding industry in that ocuntry.
