Information which caused this step is a written report of “a responsibyl New York special investigator,” a member of the committee said.

office.

If the books of the Benkard Brokerage firm, which were subpoenaed for secret inspection at an executive meeting of the senate oil committee this morning, do not corroborate the investigators report, the inquirers will start upon a new task.

The whole press has come out in full hearted support of the govern-1 ment. Premier MacDonald’s warning to the profiteers is “timely and needed” the Daily Mail said. “The government is to be congratulated for its display of firmness.” The warning referred to was issued last night after a meeting of the cabinet which discussed the strike situation. “The cabinet has information from various parts of the country an official statement after the meeting said, “that the prices of meat and other commodities have been increas*d from 33 1-3 to 30 per cent.

NEW YORK, Feb. 19—(United Press)—Great Britain's recognition of soviet Russia by the new Labor government of Premier MacDonald means the diplomatic restoration of the Russians to international relations, but economic restoration must wait on Russia herself. Resumption of trade between Russia and the world on an important scale depends on the confidence which financier- will have in Russia’s future integrity. Diplomatic recognition, it is hoped by the British workingmen, will be followed by the opening up of Russian markets for British manufactures. If this happens, unemployment in Great Britain will decline. But it cannot happen unless British merchants are willing to send their goods to Russia. Reluctance to give the Russian credit has been the principal drawback to Angla-Russian commercial intercourse since the war. British merchants have never shown in the past special trust in political recognitions of foreign revolutionary governments. They have decided the question of credits apart from recognition. They have often guessed differently from their government, and often guessed earlier. British foreign trade is in the hands of venturesome pioneers, however, who continuously make fortunes by taking risks. The risk of Russia has been very cautiously approached to the present. Nevertheless, there are signs that risks are being taken. They have been moderately successful, and that is all. For British unemployment to fall on an important scale, British traders mGst show far more venturesomeness in Russia than they have done. There is every pressing reason in Great Britain for bringing about successful trade relations with the Russians. But recognition of the Soviet by the MacDonald government is as far as the British can go. The next move must be on the part of Moscow. It will be necessary for the Bolsheviki to demonstrate to the satisfaction of international traders that their credit is good and that they are restoring Russia’s own productivity. Until this is done, all Europe may recognize Russia without producing an economic

effect.

Hope has been expressed by Rus sians that recognition would be followed by the granting of foreign government loans to Moscow. If this were to happen it would be only because the foreign governments would expect the money to be spent with their own nationals for purchasing manufactures for Russia. The American government has taken this step, in roundabout fashion, by subsidizing American farmers for sending foodstuffs to Russia. Loans to Russia in such forms woul dbe scarcely disguised philanth-

ropy, not for the Russians, hut for the people making the loans. e Russians can not get back to the right road to prosperity until they can borrow abroad on their own credit as a nation, and use the money for internal development. Then foreign trade will follow in the only permanently safe path of exchanging goods for goods. How far Russia is from being able to take this course remains to be seen. Lenders are reluctant to advance money unless there is a reasonable probability that it will be returned. Any government’s attitude toward its past loans has a long felt influence. This influence never is permanent; but it lasts a long while. That is the principal reason why Russia may expect difficulties in capitalizing the mere fact of British political recogni-

tion of the Soviet.

PORTLAND, Ore., Feb. 19—(United Press)—After noting hallow logs for bears, counting deer tracks, and enumerating cougar cries, forest rangers of the northwest have compiled a census of animals in the National forest of Oregon and Washing-

ton.

Inasmuch as the census was not a house to house canvass, the rangers admit it is only an approximation, because maybe some ranger counted the same deer’s tracks twice. The census shows that deer predominate, there being approximately’ 50,000 in the Oregon forests and 25,000 in the Washington forests. There are about 8,000 black or brown bears in Oregon and 7,000 in Washington forest reserves. Washington has 8,000 elks and Oregon 3,000. These figures are for about 17,000,000 acres of forest land in the two states and were compiled by 135 rangers, each making a report for his respective district. Number of animals killed each hunting season, number of bounties paid, and verbal reports of mountaineers as to the number of the game seen all figured in the estimates. Other animals listed included Cayotes, Oregon 25,000, Washington, 9,000; wolves, Oregon 150, Washington 90; bobcats, Oregon 13,000, Wash|ington 4,000; Oregon fur-bearing animals include: 6,000 badgers,8,000 beavers, 3,500 foxes, 11,000 mink, 1,000 marten, 6,500 musk rats, 400 otter, 90 lynx. Washington’s fur bearers include: 7,000 beavers, 600 badgers, 900 foxes, 1,000 lynx, 8,000 mink, 9,000 muskrats, 800 marten and 200 otter.
