§ BARON HENRY DE WORMSasked the Under Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs, Whether he can now state the result of the inquiry which he promised in the House on the 5th August last would be made as to the allegation that the Jews and their families, reduced to destitution by the edict against hawking issued by the Roumanian Government, were unable to leave Roumania for the purpose of earning their living elsewhere from the fact that the Roumanian Government would not, even in the case of those who had been domiciled in the country for generations, grant them the necessary passports, on the ground that they were not Roumanian subjects?
§ LORD EDMOND FITZMAURICESufficient time has not elapsed for a reply to be received to the request which, as I informed the hon. Member privately last week, has been addressed to Her Majesty's Minister at Bucharest for further explanations respecting the passport system in Roumania. When Mr. White's reply is received, I will lose no time in communicating with the hon. Member.
