German Invitation Renewed

Dr. Hans Thomson, German Charge d'Affaires here, told press representatives today that his Government was still prepared to negotiate a trade treaty with the United States.

However. he pointed out the imposition of a 25 per cent. surtax on the entry of German goods into the United States will make most difücult the conclusion of present negotiations bearing upon the exchange of manufactured products from Germany against American agricultural products.—Havas, Swedish Industrialists To Visit Britain Stockholm. Apr. 3

A delegation of Swedish industrialists will visit Great Britain for further discussions, it was announced after the talks of Mr. R. S. Hudson, Secretary for Overseas Trade, with members of the Federation of Swedish Industries and the Export Association. The discussions, it was also agreed. might require a return visit of British industrialists to study the possibilities of a Swedish market.—Reuter.
