§ 24. Mr. WILMOTasked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether any official steps are being taken by either of the Powers concerned to the end that the former Treaty alliance between Japan and this country should be revived in some similar form?
§ Sir J. SIM0NNo, Sir.
§ Mr. WILMOTWhile thanking the right hon. Gentleman for that reply, may I ask whether he has seen the persistent statements that a loan to the Japanese Government was likely to be floated in the City of London in the near future, and will he give an assurance that no such facilities will be granted?
§ Sir J. SIMONNo, Sir.
