HC Deb 20 December 1934 vol 296 cc1339-40
79. Mr. MORGAN JONES

asked the Financial Secretary to the War Office whether hs is aware of an agreement between Imperial Chemical Industries, Limited, or any of its subsidiary companies, and the firm of Dupont de Nemours concerning the sale of munitions of war; when such arrangement was made; and what were its terms.

Mr. BLINDELL (Lord of the Treasury)

I have been asked to reply. My hon. Friend has no knowledge of any agreement concerning the sale of munitions of war between the firms mentioned.

Mr. H. WILLIAMS

Is it not time that the hon. Member for Caerphilly (Mr. Morgan Jones) ceased to put questions based upon proceedings before an incompetent tribunal in another country?

Mr. JONES

May I ask whether the hon. Member for South Croydon (Mr. H. Williams) has any right to draw such a deduction concerning the source of my information?
