U.S. EXPORTS TO RUSSIA TERMED "APPEASEMENT"

New York, Nov. 26.--The recent drastic decline in American trade with Russia has aroused consider- able comment here. Many people think the United States is still shipping too much to the Soviet Union, while others find compelling reasons of commerce and diplomacy for opposition to further curtailment.

They Demand Their Wives

London, Nov, 26.-British

Russiat husbands whose

wives are detained in the Soviet Union today started a campaign to bombard the Soviet Foreign Minister, Mr Vyacheslav Molotov, with leaflets demanding the re- lease of their wivos.

Leaflets were distributed and recipients were urged to sign them and send them to Mr Molotov at the Soviet Embassy.

The first batch reached the Embassy this morning. but a secretary took charge of them and they did not reach Mr Molotov.-United Pross.

THE HONGKONG TELEGRAPH, THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 27, 1947.

Washington officials hint that Secretary of Commerce W. Averell Harriman may further tighten trade restrictions through his export control nu- thority. But there appears to be no American embargo in prospect partly because, firstly, Russia would presumably re- taliate by barring shipments of chrome and manganese which are vital to United States eco- nomy, and, secondly, an embargo would be a drastic diplomatic step putting Russin outright in the "enemy" category and giv ing propaganda fuel to the Com- munist Information Bureau,

WOULD you willingly placo too heavy a burden on your wife's shoulders? Caro of the family and management of the home are tasks that are naturally here as a partner. Yet if she were suddenly 'left without you, burdens that are heavy when shared by both would be hers alone. How could she face thom without an income?

Life Insurance can be arranged to provide a non- cancellable monthly income that will never be un- certain—that fluctuating values or market upheavals can nover reduce. Thus your heaviest burden will not fall on shoulders ill-fitted to carry the load.
