Mr. Awberyasked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs if he is aware that arrangements have been made for the exchange of cultural delegations between the United States of America and the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics in the field of agriculture, the arts, literature, youth movements and women's movements, and that the exchange of delegations of members of Congress and the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics is to be the subject of further negotiations; and if he will take steps to make similar exchanges with the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics as a means of developing the contacts between the two peoples.
