HC Deb 02 May 1922 vol 153 cc1164-5
47. Mr. N. MACLEAN

asked the Prime Minister whether he will issue as a Government Paper the reply of the Angora Government to the collective Note of the Allies of 15th April?

Mr. CHAMBERLAIN

His Majesty's Government consider that no useful purpose would be served by the premature and partial publication of the correspondence between the Allies and the Greek and Turkish Governments, which is still proceeding.

Mr. MILLS

Would the word "Allies" cover Italy in view of the announcement in to-day's papers?

Mr. CHAMBERLAIN

Certainly.

Mr. MILLS

Is the right hon. Gentleman aware that the newspapers to-day state specifically that Italy has concluded a separate treaty with Turkey?
