Negotiations With Russia on Debt Collapse in Washington
Washington September 6 A complete and hopeless breakdown in talks to settle the Russian debt to the United States was announced by Acting Secretary of State R Walton Moore. An attempt to revive deadlocked negotiations at a secret conference with Soviet Ambassador Alexander Troyanov last night failed. Moore said concessions on material questions had reached the limit and further sacrifice would threaten public interests. The department’s decision would likely end any early resumption of trade with the Soviet, a factor in U.S. recognizing Moscow.
