HC Deb 26 May 1919 vol 116 cc812-3
27. Lieut.-Colonel HERBERT

asked if the Allies have landed at Smyrna in the cause of self-determination or for the sake of self-interest?

Mr. HARMSWORTH

The landing at Smyrna was carried out by the direct orders of the Supreme Council of the Peace Conference in accordance with the terms of Article 7 of the conditions of the Armistice with Turkey.

Lieut.-Colonel HERBERT

Arising out of that answer, may I ask if it is true that rabies have spread to Paris?
