FRASER & CO.'S REPORT
Singapore, August 15. The current issue of our share circular covers the business trane | seted over the past two weeks, during which period but little in- terest was "shewn in the market, bargains being only on a moderate scale, possibly owing to the incid- ence of the August Bank Holidays.
Tin appears to be well held at the present time and fluctuations in price have been within narrow margins. Intending purchasers of Tin shares have concentrated atten- tion more on the better-class, stocks with view to dividend "returns, particularly as it is considered in some quarters that with a main. tenance of the price of the metal above £200 per ton, an increase in Tin quotas may possibly be sane- tioned by the respective Govern- ments concerned over the next few įmonths.
The Rubber share market has re- mained very inactive recently with quotations inclined to ehse in sym- pathy with the lower prices ruling for the raw material."

GOODS THAT RUSSIA
REQUIRES
Tokyo. Recent press dispatches stated. that a basic agreement had been reached between the Soviet Gov- ernment and Mr. Ota, the Japan- ese ambassador to Moscow, with regard to the devolopment of the economic relations between the two countries. Evidently the ne- gotiations have since been taking an interesting course
According to the Asahi, Mr. Sokolnikoff, vicè Commissar fox -Foreign Affairs, invited Mr. Ote the and other staff officials of Japanese Embassy to a reception on August 9th, and had important discussions with them concerning the Russo-Japanese economic "re- lations. The upshot of the discus- slons was the decision on the fol- lowing two points:
1.-Japan and Soviet Russia to push on their negotiations for commercial agreements in a deff- nite form
2. As the forerunner of such negotiations, the two nations to exchange trade, missions.
Plans to be Bubmitted. The Soviet Board for Foreign Affairs, after the necessary rangement with its Foreign Trade Board. is "to submit to Japan its plan for the development of economic relations between the two countries. Japan is to present. at the same time Her own plan. The negotiations will then be con- ducted in a definite form.
It is said that the above recep- tion" was held in a very warm and friendly manner. Mr. Ota, the Japanese Ambassador, and 'Mr. Sakawa, Councillor, would make heart-to-heart talks with Mr. Sokolnikoff, Mr. Troyanovsky and other high Soylet official It was stated at the meeting that Japan should expand her market in Russia from Siberia to European Russia, because in that case alone she can expect a marked increase in trade with "Russia. It order to enable Russia to know what sort of Japanese, articles suit her
de- mand, the Soviet side proposed to send a party of experts to Japan to Inspect Industrial conditions
there, asking at the same time for the dispatch of a mission by Japan to Soviet Russia to study econo- mic conditions there.
What Russia Wants to Buy. The Soviet Government has in mind such articles as electrical machinery, medical appliances, spinning machines, shipbuilding equipment, high class machine tools, and tea, to buy from Japan. Its inspection party, comprising seven or eight experts, wishes to have facilities to inspect the above lines of industry. As regards the Japanese party, in consideration of the nature of its mission, the Soviet Government hoped that it will consist of leading business
