HC Deb 05 February 1918 vol 101 c2092
63. Mr. OUTHWAITE

asked the Prime Minister whether his attention has been called to the fact that the Director of National Service stated at a meeting of Trade Unionists held at Glasgow on the 28th ultimo that personally he would vote for the convening of an international workers' conference if first assured that the German delegates were truly representative of German workers; and will the Government take such action as will enable this pledge to be fulfilled?

Mr. BONAR LAW

The statement in the question does not represent what was said by my right hon. Friend, and no pledge of any kind was given.
