SOVIET ARRESTS GERMANS
IRRITATION GN BOTH SIDES. By- Telegraph—Press Assn.—Copyright. Received April V, 7.30 p.m. A. and N.Z. Berlin, April 8. “Germany is only using the arrest of the German engineers at Donetz as a pretext for rupturing trade negotiations,” said the Soviet War Commissar, M. Voroshiloff. The German Government knew that it was itself too weak to complete the task and wanted an excuse for withdrawing, he said. M. Voroshiloff is greatly irritated. The German newspaper Tagliche Rundschau says the Soviet’s methods and negotiations are intolerable to any civilised country. The Soviet must understand that trading is impossible if German representatives are liable to be, shadowed, persecuted and imprisoned on idle pretexts.
