§ 77. General Sir IVOR HERBERTasked the Prime Minister whether the realisation of the immemorial hopes of the Polish people in all lands for union and autonomy is now placed by His Majesty's Government side by side with the reconstitution of the kingdoms of Belgium and Serbia as one of the fundamental objects for which we are fighting?
§ The PRIME MINISTERI would refer the hon. and gallant Member to the telegram from M. Briand and myself to M. Sturmer, which was published in the Press on the 18th instant.
§ General Sir IVOR HERBERTMay I ask whether the right hon. Gentleman is aware that the absence of any definite statement on behalf of His Majesty's Government is creating much uneasiness among the Polish peoples, and is giving point to the German attempts to alienate Polish sympathies from Russia?
§ The PRIME MINISTERIt was with that in mind that M. Briand and myself sent the telegram.
