Mr. CATHCART WASONasked whether any of the North Sea Powers as well as Great Britain have entered their protests against the claims put forward by Russia 1039 to extend their territorial waters to limit of range of modern artillery?
Mr. McKINNON WOODI presume that the hon. Member refers to the Bill at present before the Duma extending the limits of territorial waters along the northern coasts of Russia to twelve miles in fishery matters. I am not aware that any other Powers, besides Great Britain, have yet protested against it.
