§ 15. Mr. OUTHWAITEasked whether the Governments of the Allied Powers propose in the after-war settlement to grant independence to the nationalities to whom they at present deny this right?
§ The SECRETARY of STATE for FOREIGN AFFAIRS (Mr. Balfour)I have nothing to add to the statements 602 which have already been made regarding the objects which the Allies have in view.
§ Mr. OUTHWAITEWould it not be best for the Government to set a good example by granting independence to Ireland instead of to other subject nationalities?
