Germany w - Chancel the Soviet Union that a discussion of German unity and the release !of Germans held ' in Russia is "necessary" during his impending trip to Moscow, the German gov ernment announced Sunday night. Adenauer told the Russians that he is prepared to leave for the Soviet capital on Sept. 9 in response to the Kremlin's invitation to dis cuss establishing diplomatic, cul tural and trade relations, the an nouncement said. He said that he is ready to dis cuss "ways and means" of setting up relations in these fields. But he said the Bonn govern ment "is of the opinion that the discussion of the establishment of diplomatic, cultural and trade re lations makes necessary the dis cussion of other questions." The Soviets, in their note of Aug. 3, appeared to rule out any dis cussion of these subjects. They suggested that Adenauer come to Moscow late this month or early in September to discuss a three-point agenda setting up normal rela tions in the diplomatic, cultural and trade fields. Adenauer's note was the fourth in the exchanges that began June. 7 with a Soviet invitation for him to visit Moscow "in the near fu ture."
