TRADE WITH RUSSIA
PRELIMINARY STEPS
(British Official Wireless.) RUGBY, October 28,
The recent statements by the President of the Board of Trade, Mr. Oliver Stanley, and the Foreign Secretary, Lord Halifax, have been evidence of Britain's desire for any practicable extension of trading exchanges between Britain and/Russia, and it was indicated that the possibility of further agreements on the lines of that recently concluded with the Soviet was under examination. It is understood there have been contacts in this connection between Mr. Stanley and the Soviet Ambassador in London, M. Maisky. The discussions have been of a preliminary and exploratory character and will be continued.
