54. Sir J. D. REESasked the Under-Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether the proposal to give the peninsula of Gallipoli to the Greeks will come under reconsideration; and whether this area can be subjected, mutatis mutandis, to some such treatment as is to be applied to the Dardanelles?
Mr. HARMSWORTHI do not clearly understand the meaning of the question. The navigation of the straits will be controlled by an international Commission. The military control of the Gallipoli peninsula, which is the European shore of the straits, will be entrusted to an Allied force. It is not proposed to depart from these dispositions.
