47. Lieutenant-Colonel HERBERTasked the Prime Minister if it has been decided to raise the blockade on Hungary the day after Hungary has accepted a Bolshevik government in order to encourage Bolshevism, or because it is believed now that the past policy of starving Hungary has produced Bolshevism and is a mistake?
§ Mr. BONAR LAWIt has not been decided to raise the blockade of Hungary.
§ 48. Colonel WEDGWOODasked the Prune Minister whether the Allied Mission has been withdrawn from Hungary; and, if so, whether anyone now represents 587 British or American interests in that country or whether we are at war with that country?
Mr. HARMSWORTHMy right hon. Friend has asked me to reply. The answer to the first part of the question is in the negative, and, as regards the last part, I would remind my hon. and gallant Friend that the Armistice with Austria-Hungary still continues.
§ Colonel WEDGWOODAre we to understand that the Armistice has not been abrogated by the action of Austria-Hungary?
