m EXTENDS RUSSIA CREDIT; WHYJjOT D. $.? Writer Says Soviet Nation Is Communist Now in Name Only. This is the second of a series of six articles on Russia by William Philips Simms, staff correspondent of The Indianapolis Timhcs and other Seripps-Howard newspapers. Simms has just completed a tour of the Soviet state. By William Philip Simms MOSCOW (By Mull)—Henry Ford has just sold 10,000 tractors to the Russians. Also a lot of spare parts. This single deal represents $5,000,000. That's a lot of money. Yet Ford extended the Communists ten months’ credit, the first credit, I was told, he ever extended to anybody. Not only that, but he Is preparing to establish service stations all over the country, which will mean more sales and more long-term credit. If this does not mean the tide has turned for Russia, nothing does. Henry Ford has the reputation of being as hard-boiled a business man as there is in hard-boiled United States. Nobody has ever accuesd riiim of being in business for his flfeealth. . Other Business The American Tool Works, of Cincinnati, also does a big business with Russia, some of their more important orders being on a part credit "basis. Their representatives say the business has been at all tim satisfactory. The same story Is told by other American concerns, cotton merchants, makers of machinery, bankers and so on. Reeve Schley, vicepresident of the Chase National Bank of New York, said they had been doing business with Russian organizations, both, in America and in Russia, for the past two years and their experience throughout had been satisfactory. Over 700 American firms are now doing business with Russia on an admittedly satisfactory basis. And the number is constantly growing. The story'is also true of Germany, Britain, France, Holland, Sweden and other countries. Wild Days Passing Which means that the era of a wild and woolly Russia, where irresponsible and rampant communism was rushing blindly into mistake after mistake, is over. Instead there is a Russia, still communist if you will, but becoming practical as the result of hard knocks. I have talked this ox’br with several Soviet officials. They every one admit Russia must meet her religiously if she is to The Russia of today is as different from the Russia of three or four years ago as day\ is from night. The Russia of tomorrow will be different still. Communist In Name Only It looks very much as though Communist Russia is here to stay, ,)at least for some time to come. But Russia is already becoming Communist in name only. The United States is a Christian country. But when the President and his Cabinet or the Congress sit down to work out American policy and American laws they do not first say: “Now what would Christ do were He doing this thing?” They do what they consider the practical thing. Similarly Russia is a Communist country. Today, however, her rulers are consulting less and*less what the puro Communist would do in the circumstances and instead are striving to find practical solutions of their difficulties. This is something that Americans do not know. They are still being told raw-head-and-bloody-bones stories about the bolshevik! and how Russia is spending her time devising ways and means to plant the red flag on the White House. Which is sheer nonsense. Theoretically Russia still would like to see a “dictatorship of the proletariat” established all over the world. But today sho is waking from any such dream and is beginning to realize she has her hands full indeed running her own Affairs. Tomorrow she will be fully awake.
