Major DAVIESasked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether several thousands of Jugo-Slavs, including members of the national council, judges, mayors and dignitaries of the Church, have con deported by the Italian authorities from the Dalmatian and Crotian coast and islands and from the Slav districts of Istria and the Slovene countries east of the Isonzo; and, if so, whether any representations have been made to the Italian Government by the Foreign Office?
Mr. HARMSWORTHI am unable to give any definite reply to the first part of the question, as I have received no reports from independent sources. The reply to the second part of the question is in the negative.
