Senate Debates Recognition of the Soviet Government
The Senate debated recognizing the Soviet government of Russia with over three hours of remarks. Senator Lodge opposed recognition citing propaganda links and interlocking directors, while Senator Borah urged negotiations to recognize to aid trade and curb propaganda, and Senator Lenroot criticized Borah’s stance. Mrs. Coolidge and others sat in the President's row as the session focused on foreign policy and Russia.
