TRADE WITH GERMANY
SOVIET ATTITUDE DEFINED. CONDITIONS OF NEGOTIATION WITH BRITAIN. By Telegraph—Press Association—Copyright. LONDON. April 30. The “Daily Herald” says that the Soviet Ambassador. M. Maisky, informed the Foreign Secretary, Lord Halifax, that the Soviet is willing to negotiate a trade agreement on the basis that any British goods supplied to Russia would be exclusively for Russian use and would not be re-ex-ported to Germany, but the Soviet regarded her own exports of Russian goods whether contraband or not, to Germany as entirely her own affair and would not discuss restriction of this trade with any third party. REPLY UNSATISFACTORY. POSITION BEING EXAMINED. (British Official Wireless.) (Received This Day, 10.10 a.m.) RUGBY, April 30. M. Maisky conveyed to Lord Halifax the Soviet's reply to the recent invitation by Britain to put forward for consideration a concrete proposal for a trade agreement, having regard to the existing war situation.
