§ Sir W. JOYNSON-HICKSThe number of aliens registered as Russians at the end of March last was 86,824; approximately 2,000 less than on the same date in 1925.
§ Mr. THURTLECan the right hon. Gentleman say how many of these Russians are emissaries of the late Tsarist règime?
§ Sir W. JOYNSON-HICKSIt is quite impossible for me to give that information.
