Developments in the last 24 hours brought considerably nearer a spectacular political dispute here on the issue of President Roosevelt's recognition of Soviet Russia. Semi-official sources revealed that the Administration was disinclined at this time either to break with Moscow or to recall Ambassador Laurence A.

Observers believe that Republicans consider New Deal recognition of Soviet Russia the weakest link in Mr. Roosevelt's foreign policy.
