HC Deb 27 February 1935 vol 298 c1127
3. Colonel BURTON

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether he has any information as to the withdrawal of Paraguay from the League of Nations; and what reason has been assigned for this action?

Sir J. SIMON

The Paraguayan Government, notified the League on 24th February of their intention to withdraw. I have not yet seen the full text of the Paraguayan Government's telegram, but I understand that they have based their withdrawal on the claim that the question of responsibility for the Chaco dispute has not been investigated by the League as demanded by Paraguay.
