§ 61. Major MACKENZIE WOODasked the Prime Minister whether he has any information that the Polish irregulars are continuing their advance beyond Vilna; whether Lithuania has, in consequence, made a military convention with the Letts; and whether, in view of the 49 dangers likely to arise from these proceedings, the Government proposes to take any measures to bring this war to an end?
§ The PRIME MINISTERAccording to our latest information, General Seligowski, who has been publicly disowned by the Polish Government, is continuing his attacks against the Lithuanians, the League of Nations Commission having not yet succeeded in arranging an armistice. I have no information as to a military convention between the Lithuanians and the Letts. As the whole matter is in the hands of the League of Nations, there is no occasion for the separate intervention of His Majesty's Government.
§ Mr. LAMBERTWhen does the right hon. Gentleman think that the League of Nations will deal with this matter? It is rather important from the point of view of the Baltic States.
§ The PRIME MINISTERI quite agree, but it is in the hands of the League of Nations, and it would be a great mistake for individual States to interfere.
