§ 36. Viscount CURZONasked the Prime Minister whether, in view of the presence in this country of the President of the Argentine Republic, he will consider whether arrangements can be made for H.M.S. "Hood" and "Repulse," on the conclusion of their visit to Rio de Janeiro, to visit the adjacent port of Buenos Aires?
§ The PRIME MINISTERThe possibility of these ships visiting Buenos Aires and other South American capitals has already been considered, but I regret that such a course was found to be out of the question owing to insufficient depth of water.
