§ 4. Mr. KELLYasked the Secretary of State for the Colonies who gave directions to the Colonial Secretary and the chief of police at Gibraltar to confiscate and suppress the newspaper, Hojas Libres?
§ Mr. AMERYI have now received a report from the Governor on this matter. It appears that the publication in question is not a newspaper but a revolutionary leaflet in the Spanish language printed in France and directed exclusively against the Spanish Government. Supplies have been introduced into Gibraltar on three occasions and, on the authority of the Governor, were seized when placed on sale. In the circumstances the Governor's action has my full support.
§ Mr. KELLYWho has decided that this is a revolutionary paper, in view of the fact that the articles are much milder than those published in papers belonging to the party of the right hon. Gentleman?
