SOVIET OFFER FOR TRADE
NO RE-EXPORT OF GOODS TO GERMANY (Received April 30, 9.5 p.m.) LONDON, April 30. The Daily Herald says that the Soviet Ambassador (M. Ivan 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-exported to Germany, but the Soviet regarded its own exports of Russian goods, whether contraband or not, to Germany as entirely its own affair and would not discuss the restriction of this trade with any third party.
