§ 42. Lieut.-Commander KENWORTHYasked the Prime Minister what is the attitude of His Majesty's Government towards the resolution submitted to the present assembly of the League of Nations by the delegations of Denmark, Norway, the Netherlands, Sweden, and Switzerland, calling upon Governments to abstain from any increase of their armaments pending the result of the Disarmament Conference; when a declaration of our attitude is to be made; and whether it is proposed to act upon such declaration?
§ 45. Mr. MANDERasked the Prime Minister whether, with a view to securing a definite result from the discussions about to begin in the third committee of the Assembly of the League of Nations, the Government will propose a definite plan for a truce in armament construction until after the Disarmament Conference, including a proposal 1472 not to lay down new ships of war, not to construct additional squadrons of aircraft, and not to increase expenditure on land material of war?
§ Mr. S. BALDWINThese proposals are under the consideration of His Majesty's Government who are in communication with their representative at Geneva.
§ Lieut.-Commander KENWORTHYDoes he not think it is unfortunate that there should be this delay after the magnificent lead given by the Italian Foreign Minister?
