HC Deb 27 June 1921 vol 143 cc1791-2
42. Commander BELLAIRS

asked the Prime Minister whether it has ever been officially intimated to the United States of America, by means of a diplomatic Note, that in no circumstances can Japan receive support from this country under the terms of the alliance in the event of a war between Japan and the United States of America?

Mr. CHAMBERLAIN

The United States Government are so fully acquainted with the real position that it has not been thought necessary to inform them of it in an official Note.
