PARITY CLAIM.
London, To-day..
In connection with British con- sular representation in Russia, it was stated in official circles in Lon- don yesterday that recent practice has been that one of the First Se- cretaries at the British Embassy in Moscow has been permitted by the United Kingdom Government to perform consular functions there," largely for the convenience of the Soviet authorities since, for years, there has been no British Consul in Moscow.

That authority has now been withdrawn by His Majesty's Gov- ernment so that at present the only British Consul functioning in Rus- sia is at Leningrad.
This means that all Consular en- quiries which been previously ad- dressed to Moscow must now go to Leningrad, The arrangément, however, is without prejudice to decision that may be any final reached following the announce- ment of the Soviet Government that they desire to establish a basis of parity for Consular representation. -British Wireless..
