HC Deb 03 December 1930 vol 245 cc2191-2
8. Mr. DAY

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether there has been any change in the position in China since his last statement; and can he give particulars?

Mr. A. HENDERSON

Since my reply to my hon. Friend's question on the 19th November I have received a report that the Chinese Government forces claim successes in their operations against bandits in certain districts, but no definite news is available.

Mr. DAY

Has the right hon. Gentleman received any report in regard to the missionaries who were captured last week?

Mr. HENDERSON

Yes. I think there is some information, but I have not got it here.
