§ 68. Captain CUNNINGHAM-REIDasked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether, in view of the lapsing by the effluxion of time of Article 224 of the Treaty of St. Germain-en-Laye on 10th September, 1934, he will consider ascertaining from His Majesty's diplomatic representatives at Warsaw and Prague the probable future attitude of the Polish and Czechoslovakian Governments towards the matters at present governed by Article 224 of the Treaty?
§ The LORD PRIVY SEAL (Mr. Eden)Article 224 of the Treaty of St. Germain-en-Laye does not lapse until 16th July, 1935, that is to say 15 years after the coming of the Treaty into force. I am not clear that the inquiries proposed by my hon. and gallant Friend would serve any useful purpose in present circumstances.
