U. S. INVITATION TO RUSSIA HELD ECONOMIC MOVE Soviet Nation Might Spend $350,000,000 a Year in America. In & of three ditpatchp*. the Vnlted Prr%% will outline probable results of a Ku'nian-t'nitrd State* allianre Following: i* the flr*t. BV JOSEPH II BAIRD I'nlted Pres* Staff Corrrspondent (CoDvrieht 1933 bv United Pressi WASHINGTON, Oct. 25—President Roosevelt's cordial invitation to Soviet Russia to seek a basis for renewing diplomatic and strengthening trade relations with America is interpreted here as anew and vigorous drive against the world depression. Political reasons for recognition are not lacking. But those close to the President believe that economic motives primarily prompted him to extend the hand of friendship to Moscow. In Russia the administration sees the world's greatest potential market. A sample of its capacity to absorb American goods was given in 1930 when the Soviet Union purchased nearly $112,000,000 worth of the products of American factories, mines and farms. More People Than U. S. Here is a bird's-eye view of the Russian market as seen by administration economists: Between Russia’s European border and the northeastern tip of Siberia —7,000 miles away— stretches a vast land containing 160,000,000 people It is twice as large in area as the United States. It contains 40,000,000 more people. It is a vast consumer of goods. Further, it is a land which, inspired by a fanatical zeal, is seeking in a few brief decades to bridge the gap between agricultural feudalism and modern industrialism. The machine Is Russia’s god. Toy tractors and trucks are found in the nursery. Russia’s young men dream not of romantic conquests, but of bridges built, streams harnessed by turbines, rich earth turned by tractors, petroleum gushing from the Russian steppes and factories emitting a contant current of manufactured goods. Much Machinery Needed This vast industrial program calls for heavy imports of machinery. A recent commerce department study of Russian purchases here features steam engines, locomotives, laboratory apparatus, lathes, drilling machinery, automobiles and trucks. Russia also needs millions of bales of United States cotton. The same Litvinoff who is coming here told the world economic conference in London last summer that his country was ready to spend $1,000,000,000 abroad for needed goods. A recent state department study made by a technician with experience in Russia estimated the Soviet union’s purchases here in the event of recognition at $350,000,000 annually. Jobs for 300,000 These purchases he maintained, would give employment directly to 309,000 persons, indirectly to 300,000 more. But this trade, he warned, can not be one-sided. The United States must buy as well as sell. Among the products needed by America which he listed are manganese, high grade iron ore, furs, pulp wood and some other grades of lumber. To start the wheels of AmericanRussian trade, some financing will be necessary. The RFC is now considering a $75,000,000 credit to Russia. As the Soviet has never defaulted an obligation, officials here believe the loan will be extended. In cementing the bonds of a new T trade relationship between the world’s two most vast industrial countries a commercial treaty will be needed. Observers here would not be surprised if one emerged from the Roosevelt-LitvinofT talks. (Next —What American Recognition Would Mean in Europe and the Far East.) LEAGUE WILL DISCUSS EXTENSION OF CREDIT State Savings and Loan Group to Aid Home Owners. Problem of creating more employment by extension of credit for modernizing and rehabilitation of home properties will be discussed by speakers at the convention of Savings and Loan League of Indiana in the Lincoln tomorrow. Principal addresses will be given by two officials of the national league, Philip Lieber, Shreveport, La., national president, and Morton Bodfish, Chicago executive vicepresident. W. C. T. U.

Brands Plan to Arm Jail as Play to ‘Grand Stand’

Attorney Ira M. Holmes Sees Slap at Jones Slaying Accused. While county authorities today were placing an order for two submachine guns and an armor plate gunner's cage at the jail, Ira Holmes, prominent criminal lawyer, branded the protective measures as "a grandstand play.” Resuming his long-standing feud with Sheriff Charles tßuck) Sumner, Mr. Holmes declared: ‘‘l think all this fuss is a grandstand play by Buck Sumner, It looks as if the county authorities wanted to prejudice the public against the men held in the Jones slaying and to prevent them from having a fair trial.” Defends Five Accused Mr. Holmes is defense attorney for five of the seven men indicted for the machine gun slaying of Police Sergeant Lester Jones during an attempted holdup of the Peoples Motor Coach Company garage, Feb. 7. Meanwhile, Sheriff Sumner announced that orders were placed today for two Thompson submachine guns, tear gas bombs and gas masks, and that work on the gunner’s cage will be started at once. Fear ‘‘Terror Gang" Members of the county council authoritized the equipment in an informal session at the jail Monday, transferring SI,OOO in funds, after Sheriff Sumner had asked for additional protection against possible attack by a "terror gang.” On numerous occasions Sheriff Sumner and Mr. Holmes have clashed verbally, and on one occasion when admission to the jail was refused to the attorney, he and Sheriff Sumner engaged in a brief flurry of fisticuffs.

Page St. Nick! Girl Puts in Early Bid for Santa Claus. T ITTLE JULIA HUGHES, who is only 7 and resides at 229 West Morris street, may be rushing the season a litle bit, but she evidently believes in shopping early. Julia has written Santa Claus in care of The Times asking that he bring her a raincoat and a cap, a doll trunk and a pair of roller skates for her doll. So if any big-hearted fellow intends to play Santa Claus this Christmas, he might take a note of Julia's nabe, address and requests. A wave of bag-snatching in women’s shopping districts of Europe has made coin purses with patented fasteners popular there.

READ THE LAXATIVE ADVERTISEMENTS BUT DON'T IGNORE MEDICAL OPINION if you want to —keep the bowels regular and comfortable —make constipated spells rare as colds {<ra, —avoid danger of bowel strain dm-

.A | □j

A doctor will tell you that the careless choice of laxatives is a common cause of chronic constipation. Any hospital offers evidence of the harm done by harsh laxatives that drain the system, weaken the bowel muscles, and even affect the liver and kidneys. Fortunately, the public is fast returning to laxatives in liquid form. Can Constipation be Corrected ? “Yes!” say medical men. “Yes!” say thousands who have followed this sensible medical advice: 1. Select a good liquid laxative. 2. Take the dose that you find suited to your system. 3. Gradually reduce the dose until the bowels are moving regularly without any assistance. Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin

M'CORMIGK MAY BE SUED FOR $1,500,000 New York Woman Expected to Be Love Plaintiff. By United Press CHICAGO, Oct. 25.—Harold F. M’Cormick, wealthy International Harvester Company executive, declined today to comment on the precipe to a $1,500,000 suit filed against him by Mrs. Rhoda Tanner Doubleday, New York society woman. The precipe, or intention to file suit, contained no details of the nature of the charges, but Mrs. Doubleday’s attorneys were quoted as saying she would charge breach of promise to marry. Mrs. Doubleday was married in 1915 to Felix Doubeday, New York publisher, and divorced him in Paris in 1925. Mr. McCormick’s first wife was Edith Rockefeller M’Cormick. They were divorced in 1922, and a few months later M’Cormick married Ganna Walska, the singer. They were divorced in 1931.

has the average person’s bowels as regular as clockwork in a few weeks’ time. Why not try it? Some pill or tablet maybe more convenient to carry. But there is no “convenience” in any cathartic that’s taken so frequently, you must carry it wherever you go! What is the “Right” Laxative? In buying any laxative, read the label. Not the claims, but the contents. If it contains one doubtful drug, don’t take it. Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin

Why doctors and hospitals give a Liquid Laxative The habitual use of irritating salts, or powerful drugs in the highly concentrated form of pills and tablets may prove injurious to the bowels and other organs. The properly prepared liquid laxative brings a perfect movement without injury, and without discomfort at the time, or after. You need not take a “double dose” a day or two later. The public can always obtain Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin at any drugstore. It is an ideal liquid laxative prescription of fresh herbs, pure pepsin, and active senna. It bears this signature: 2k *3.

BOND REFUND PLANDROPPED Attorneys Advise Against $382,000 Transaction by Marion County. On advice of attorneys, no attempt will be made to reduce the Marion county tax rate by refunding $382,000 in maturing bonds, according to the state tax board. Previous reports from the Chamber of Commerce that bond house attorneys had withdrawn objections to refunding bonds led to the belief that approximately 6 cents might be slashed from the proposed 56cent rate. Members of the state tax board
