U.S.A. & SOVIET
QUESTION OF SEVERINO RELATIONS RESOLUTION IN SENATE. SOME DIVERSITY OF OPINION. By Telegraph—Press Association—Copyright. (Received This Day. 9 a.m.) WASHINGTON. January 19. A further move in Ihe growing Congress tigifaiion to sever United Slates and Soviet diplomatic relations is seen in Senator Vandenburg’s resolution req nesting President Roosevelt to advise whether Russia had fulfilled the obligations of the Litvinov agreements of 1933. under which the United Stall's recognised the Soviet.
Senator Vandenburg declared that he was confident that the information would be such as to force a severance.
Senator Pittman, chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, agreed that Russia had violated her pledges, but it is understood that he is opposed to withdrawing lhe United States representatives from Moscow on the ground that while this would cut off United States sources of Russian information, it would have little effect on the Russian-Finnish war.
