§ MR. CHANNINGI beg to ask the Under Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether Her Majesty's Government have received any confirmation of the statements made by the correspondent of the Times at Constantinople, that orders have been sent to disarm both the Armenians and the Kurds; and, if so, whether, having regard to the impracticability of disarming the nomadic Kurds, Her Majesty's Government will make representation to the Turkish Government, pointing out the danger which such a policy must occasion to the Armenians?
§ SIR J. FERGUSSONNo confirmation of the statement referred to by the hon. Member has reached Her Majesty's Government.
