§ 43. Lieut.-Commander KENWORTHYasked the Prime Minister whether a request for armed assistance has been received from the government of Poland in the war against Russia; whether this request has been considered; what reply has been made; whether the German government has been consulted on this matter; and whether His Majesty's Government will consider the calling of 1642 a general peace conference, to which Russia will be invited to send representatives, with a view to bringing about general peace in Eastern and Central Europe?
§ Mr. BONAR LAWThe reply to the first part of the question is in the negative. The second, third and fourth parts do not therefore arise As regards the fifth part, I have no doubt that the Conference at Spa will consider whether any action can at present suitably be taken in order to bring about a more satisfactory state of affairs in Eastern and Central Europe.
