M Litvinoff, Soviet representative, says" that the Soviet is earnestly striving to establish normal relations with Britain. They are ready to discuss peacefulv all conflicts and misunderstandings, but it goes without saying that the anti-Soviet campaign by certain members of the British Government and in certain quarters of the public, accompanied by threats, cannot contribute to the cause of .peace. It is a matter for regret, .says Al. Litvinoff. that Anglo-Soviet trade relations. are not developed In a measure corresponding either to the _ interests of both countries, or the position held bv the British Empire in the industrial and financial world. M. Litvinoff concludes with the hope that the British Government wiU realise the 'reciprocal harm and utter unreasonableness of an anti-Soviet campaign and go half-wav to meet the Soviet, in its desire to establish really normal relations.
