HC Deb 05 February 1918 vol 101 cc2056-7
1. Mr. KING

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether Sir George Buchanan received information that on his journey home from Petrograd a German agent in Scandinavia plotted his murder; and whether the Press Bureau will issue a full statement on this incident?

The MINISTER of BLOCKADE (Lord Robert Cecil)

Information of the kind alluded to was received. I see no reason for taking the course proposed in the last part of the question.

Mr. KING

Is the Noble Lord aware of the sort of statement which appeared in one of the evening papers on this matter?

Lord R. CECIL

No, Sir; I am not aware of it.
