mining near Ketchikan for a num
ber of years, visiting his property

RUSSIA PLANS TO EXPORT ii
3 MILLION TONS OF GRAIN?
' a
BERMN, Aug. 21—Russia’s grain
exportation tills year is si burning
question for Germany, which musl
buy a large portion of its bread
stuffs abroad. Contracts are already
reported to have been made by Ger
man organizations for 40 mil'ion gold
i ,t 1‘ks* worth of Russian grain, c hief
ly rye. This transaction is said to
have been financed Jointly by the
German government, the German in
dustrialists and the German bankers.
Krassin and other representatives
of Soviet Russia maintain that the
roviet government will be able to
export three million tons of grain f
his season. They contend that the t
season there has been more favorable i
than in Central Elurops. There has
been more sunshine anil no difficulty f
ies anticipated in harvesting thi
grain because of rain. In all the
Soviet government expects to collect
about 11 million tons of grain this t
year in grain taxes, and is planning
to export almost one-third of thli
amount.
Grain crops in Germany are In ex
cellent condition as a result of tv
abundant rain which lias fallen gial
ually throukhout the aping and ea:
summer. But the lack of sunaht'.o
before July 1 caused apprehension i
| lest there be insufficient heat and.
sunshine to rip n the grain and make'
harvest possible. i
