asked the President of the Board of Trade whether, in the interest of promoting trade to the River Tyne, he will arrange for his local departmental officer to investigate with northern industrialists the possibility of increasing on a reciprocal basis trade with the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics.

Mr. Jay

The export services of the Board of Trade and its Regional Officers are available to help local and national export efforts, to the U.S.S.R. and all other markets.
