Hi replied that the answer to both parts of the question was in the negative. He had not yet had any assurance that the Russian Government had ceased to interfere in British international affairs. Mr Wedgwood asked if in view of the interests of trade could not steps be taken to bring about a desirable arrangement. Mr Baldwin: I foreshadowed the conditions under which we are prepared to consider a resumption of relations. When these are acceded to it will be possible to make progress, but not otherwise.
