13. Lieut.-Colonel Sir FREDERICK HALLasked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether he can give the House any information as to the operations which have been recently carried out by Soviet troops against the Moslem population of Caucasia; and if he will take steps to bring the matter before the League of Nations with a view to an inquiry being set on foot into the matter?
§ Mr. DALTONMy right hon. Friend has received no information of any such operations. The second part of the question, therefore, does not arise.
Sir F. HALLAm I to understand that the Government are unaware of the fact that 40,000 troops have been dispatched to the Caucasus and has the Under-Secretary not seen anything about it?
§ Mr. DALTONI have only seen a paragraph in the "Daily Mail."
