§ 47. Lieut.-Commander KENWORTHYasked the Prime Minister whether, in view of the action of the Senate of the United States of North America towards the portion of the: Treaty of Peace with Germany dealing with the Covenant of the League of Nations, he will now consider the granting of an opportunity to this House for the discussion of policy with regard to the details of the Covenant of the League of Nations?
§ Mr. BONAR LAWI do not think any useful purpose would be served by such a discussion
§ Lieut. - Commander KENWORTHYIs he aware that the League of Nations idea has never been discussed in this House as such, and could he consider giving a day for its discussion, in view of its immense importance and the interest taken in it in the country, before the House rises for Christmas?
§ Mr. BONAR LAWI do not think it will be possible to find time before Christmas in any case, but though it has not been brought before the House officially, the subject has really been discussed over and over again, and the House has clearly shown its wishes in the matter.
