The local resources in Khnbarovek Kray for production of consumers'
;;oode are being used only to an insignificant degree. The kray has a
tremendous potential for expanding millworg and production of furniture,
various conetruction ma`erialr, paints, lacquers, household goods, metal
gocle from waste products of union industry enterprises, and food products.
Local and cooperative industries, however, are operating completely unsat-
i9factorily. The Kay Administration of Industrial Cooperatives (director,
.ykin) fulfilled only 85.7 percent of the first quarter 1949 plan. More
6han one half of its artela continually ieg behind plans for production of
consumers' goods. Enterprises of the Bray Local Industry (director, Vruhlev-
are also foiling to meet state plans. In 1948, industrial cooperatives
fulfilled only 29 percent of the year plan in regard to asecrtment, and in
the first quarter 1949 produced only five of 29 planned products. The kray
is producing only small quantities of furniture, brick and other construc-
tion material,, roofing paper, soap, children's toys, and other products
which do not require imported raw materiels. The amount of unsalable goods
in warehouses of enterprises of local, light, and cooperative industries
has amounted to almost 3! million rab?es.
Such conditions are the result of weak control on the part of bray and
Oblast administrations of cooperative and local :rduetry, any local Party
r_nd soviet organizations. Partt.cularly in the Jewish Autonomous Oblast
the oblast's industrial cooperatives from year to '
year hev u ationa been failing to
meet plane and to supply necessary goods to thepop
Experience has shown that the Jogging enterprises ere primar'ly those
wh. ch do .ot use local raw materiale, 1,ut rather depend on central-,'zed supply
of mater'_els. Recently, the Bureau of the Bray Party Committee developed s
progrrm to expand consumers' goods r_oduction. In order to accomplis'T this
pro~;rr.n, a row materie.la beee must be created L? the !n?ay.

Fraenoflotekiy Rayon, the plant imeni Kagenovich, Khabarovsk ftatlock No 2,

(City Food Trade), the Din_ng-Hell. and nestaurent Trust, and the Eha?Qferovak
Division of "Voyentorg" (Military Trade) have not fulfilled the plan for
expanding the city a network of specialized stores.
The main reason for the seriousr^ade condition is failure to utilize
fully the potential traits facilities. Many stores lack the designated
assortment of industrial end food prod-acts. The selection of sayeage, fish,
and bakery products is extremely limited. There are interruptiope in the
flow of suck necessary supplies as salt and matches. Children's shoes and
ready-';o-wars are scarce.
"Kooptorg" (Cooperative Trade) stores, s!hich supply agricultural pro-
ducts to the city's ponuletion, continue to operate unsatisfactorily. There
ore no cabbages, tLautoes, cucumbers, milk, terries and other products for
sale.
Trade and public eating enterprises have .tot made sdequate preparations
for spring and summer trade of perishable c:um:odltiee. The majcrlty of stores
and dining halls are not equipped with even the eimp!.est refrigerating installa-
tions. -Many eating places are unsanitrry end ;eve poor duality and a limited
assortment of male.
By the beginning of the second quarter, the city's trade network had
accumulated 12 million rubles' worth of goads which were e.',ther out of sea-
son or not needed in the city. Financial pla::ning is nonexifiitent in the
majority of trade organizations, with the ruenlt Vat they oftbn become in-
solvent.
Local aria cooperative industriea are not meeting their obligations to
expand assortment and improve quality, and their prices continue to bo high.
The warehouses of "Gorprom'-ombinat" (City Ind,o;trial Combine) had 210,000
rubles of unsalable and poor-quality goods by the beginninn of the second
quarter.
In order to improve the situation, the city soviet has decided to:
Order the city and rayon executive cozmnitteee and the r'irectore of
trade ors-lizationa to open in 1949 an additional 63 stores and soands,
nclndinr one store each for "Myasonolabyt" (Meat and Dairy Sales),
