Klappentext
Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. The Russian Famine Relief Act of 1921 authorized the expenditure of $20, 000, 000 for the purchase of American foodstuffs to send to the Soviet Union, for relief of the Russian famine of 1921. The Act was overseen by Herbert Hoover, serving simultaneously as the U. S. Secretary of Commerce and the head of the American Relief Administration, and signed into law in late December. With the Russian Civil War winding down, and Lenin having implemented the pseudo-Capitalist New Economic Policy (NEP) in order to get the Russian economy back on its feet, some like Hoover and Sen. William E. Borah (R) of Idaho that hoped that the aid would serve as political leverage against the Bolshevik regime.
