LASSWELL AND COMPANY East Side of Square Additional Trade With Russia Eyed SAN CLEMENTE, Calif. (I PI) President Nixon and his Moscow bound secretary of commerce looked today to a wide ranging new policy for more trade between the United States and Russia. Secretary Peter G. Peterson leaves Thursday to open talks with Soviet leaders, in a followup to summit conference in May. Foreign policy adviser Henry A.

Kissinger predicted last week that the talks would make progress toward a new approach to the issue of U.S.-Soviet economic relations." Nixon and Peterson were scheduled to confer today on the Moscow mission. The talks follow summit conference, and the rece dented agreement announced earlier this month, in which the Russians contracted to buy $750 million of U.S. grain in the next three years. An important feature of that agreement was that the Soviet Union will be granted credit through the government-backed i Credit Corporation. The chief obstacles to more extensive trade betw een the two countries were disagreement over the old World War II Lend Lease debt owed by Russia and credit arrangements.

Peterson also was expected to talk about a maritime agreement which could open ports of each country to ships of the other. Nixon was winding up a 2- week working vacation at the Western White House, during which he has been watching the Democrats select his opponent and mapping the broad outlines of his re-election campaign. He was expect to return to Washington Tuesday. During the weekend he met with Secretary of State William Rogers, who returned from an 11-nation round-the-world trip to line up support for proposals to end the Vietnam war.
