A propaganda poster of ARA in Russia. The government tried to depreciate the help of ARA and steal thunder, they didn’t prevent the rumours that Americans allegedly sold products triple the price to the country. Mass media often dissembled the true scale of help from ARA. Such posters hung on the trains and in the ARA canteens but they were often concealed.
ARA在苏联的一个宣传海报。苏联政府试图贬低ARA的帮助，并偷偷的恐吓ARA，而且他们并没有阻止关于美国人涉嫌以产品三倍价格出售的传言。大众媒体经常谎报ARA所给予帮助的真实程度。这样的海报被挂在火车上或者ARA的食堂，但它们通常被藏起来。
ARA open canteen in Moscow. The Soviet government didn’t like such type of canteen - they had to pay to service personnel, American aid was in the public eye. They preferred closed institutions under their own control.

James Goodrich - former governor of Indiana state. Under his initiative the US Congress devoted extra 20 million dollars for food to the starving in Russia. The US Government didn’t support the Bolshevist system, and it was hard to convince the lawmakers that they had to help the starving, not Bolsheviks. Among other products this 20 millions dollars were spent for corn that saved the harvest in 1922.
James Goodrich ——印地安那州的前州长。在他的发动下，美国国会额外投入两千万美元为苏联挨饿的人购买粮食。当时，美国政府不支持布尔什维克主义制度，很难说服国会议员们他们必须帮助的是饥饿的人而不是前苏联共产党员。这20亿美元用于购买1922年丰收的玉米及其他产品。
