HC Deb 20 November 1917 vol 99 cc1010-1
50. Mr. R. LAMBERT

asked the Prime Minister whether he has received from Finland an appeal for assistance in view of the famine now threatening that country; and whether any steps are being taken to meet the needs of Finland?

Lord R. CECIL

The answer to the first part of the question is, I understand, in the affirmative. We should naturally be glad to do all we can for Finland, but the position is not an easy one.
