§ 46. Mr. AUBREY HERBERTasked the Prime Minister whether the two parties chiefly concerned were represented on tile Commission inquiring into the events following on the Greek landing at Smyrna; and, if not, whether, in the interests of equity, an orthodox Greek and a Moslem, either Turk or Cretan, will be nominated?
Captain GUESTThe Commission to which the hon. Member refers, and which has, I believe, now finished its work, was appointed by the Supreme Council in Paris. His Majesty's Government accordingly 1667 had no independent responsibility for it. I understand, however, that both Greeks and Turks were authorised to appoint a representative on the Commission in a consultative capacity. The Greek Government took advantage of this offer, but I have no information to show what the Turkish did in the matter.
