HC Deb 19 December 1934 vol 296 c1130
8. Mr. MANDER

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs what steps are being taken to deal with the continued German wireless campaign inciting to violence against individuals in the Saar?

Sir J. SIMON

I have no information to confirm the statement contained in the hon. Member's question.

Mr. MANDER

Has the right hon. Gentleman seen the specific statements in the "Times" to-day? Are they to be taken as correct?

Sir J. SIMON

I am not prepared to take a statement in any newspaper as necessarily true, but the statement in the "Times" this morning, I observe, contains this passage: The feeling to which that unfortunate affair gave rise has been agreeably countered by a striking change of tone in the broadcast comments of the German wireless stations.

Mr. MANDER

May I call the right hon. Gentleman's attention to other statements a few days ago in a contradictory sense?
