Vanderlip Urges Immediate Trade With Russia for 3 Years Work
Washington B Vanderlip, back from Russia with contracts, says renewed trade could keep American industries busy for three years, with every wheel turning in 80 days and no idle workers. He argues the State Department policy would cost jobs and trade, and notes British pressure to resume relations. He cites Russia's gold, rubles, oil, manganese, flax and pulp potential and discusses who places orders.
