HC Deb 26 October 1939 vol 352 c1601W
Mr. Beechman

asked the Parliamentary Secretary to the Ministry of Information whether he is aware that enemy agents have been circulating, in Hungary, a map purporting to show that portions of Hungary are to be severed from that country in the event of an Allied victory; that these spurious intimations of Allied intentions have stirred up much Hungarian indignation against the Allies; and whether steps are being taken to counteract this and similar enemy propaganda in Hungary?

Sir E. Grigg

My Noble Friend has made inquiries and has been unable to trace any map of the kind referred to. I can, however, assure my hon. Friend that no opportunity will be lost of counteracting misleading enemy propaganda of this character in Hungary or elsewhere.
