55. Sir F. HALLasked the Prime Minister whether the German Government has protested against the Allied ultimatum sent to General Hofer, the commander of the so-called self-defence forces in Upper Silesia; whether the re-enlistment and despatch of reinforcements for General Hofer are going on unchecked; and whether, seeing that the adoption of this attitude by the Berlin Cabinet is a violation of the undertaking recently given with regard to disarmament and disbandment of troops, official or otherwise, he will state what measures are being taken to enforce compliance by Germany with her obligations in this matter?
Mr. CHAMBERLAINThe answer to the first part of the question is in the affirmative, and to the second part in the negative. The third part therefore does not arise.
