EXPERT DEFENDS SOVIET BUTTER ■ I Moscow. —(UP) —An eloquent de-1 ' I tense of the qca'.ity of Soviet but-1 ! ter has just been made by Prof, i R. E. Gerlakh, of the Mocsow Insti- : tnte of Large Meat and Milk Farm- i i ing. The stalenzeat was prompted by ■ the publication of charges in the' i English press that butter imported from the Soviet Union contained an | Asiatic insect. i Prof. Gerlakh described the me-1 chanization of the dairy industry in ■ various parts of his country and showed that it has resulted in high-1 i or and cleaner products than before, i *he war. "A most careful control of the whole process of butter production, ’ , he wrote, ‘ has- been established by I I the Commissariat of Agrltulture I ’ through a Commission organized j I especialy for this purpose. At the! I same time the Commissariat of Foreign Trade, through its trade i commission. has introduced rigid I inspection of the quality of butter j j produced, not only in Siberia and | the Ural region, where export butI ter is made, but also in the Lenin-' ! g.a 1 port, from which it is shipped.; Thus the quality of export but-j | ter is subjected to examination three times; first during production : ’lien in the places of concentration for export and lastly before leadin;' i into refrigerator ships. ” rOR RENT — House located within three blocks of the court house, Phone 43 or , inquire at 511 Madison st. x I

SOVIET TOURS ANGER EUROPE * _ Paris, July 21.— (U.R) —Most of! I Europe has risen in common ac- ; ! cord to accuse Soviet Russia of a i new kind of dumping — tourist i travel. With the goldrn tide of American j 'tourists practically clammed by the i economic crisis and European re- ' sorts suffering under the worst ' tourist season since before the war. I the rest of Europe has been anger-1 ;ed y 'he bargain tours offered by I the State Tourist Bureau of the 1 Moscow government. “Explore Old Turkestan by deluxe rail caravan.” or ' Travel with[in several hundred miles of the North Pole on a Soviet Ice Breaker,” are but two of the attractive tours which the bureau has put on the bargain counter. The rush of travel-seasoned tourists is said to have been great and there are few reservations avaii- : able on either trip, while the gold- | en sands of Venice, Deauville, OsI tend and Biarritz are far from overpopulated, the Swiss Alps ■ empty and tourist steamers on the I Rhine and elsewhere run with empty decks. The rail caravan to Turkbstan ! leaves Leningrad August 25 and will carry tourists for 8.000 miles durI ing 40 days with all the comfort 1 afforded by a special Pullman train.
