§ 13. Lieut.-Colonel MOOREasked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether he is aware that the statute of Memel is being constantly flouted by the Lithuanian authorities; and whether he will take steps, in conjunction with the other signatory Powers, to have reestablished the constitutional position which was legally laid down for the Memel territory by the Memel Convention signed by Great Britain?
§ Colonel WEDGWOODBefore the right hon. Gentleman answers, may I ask him whether he is aware that this and similar questions about Memel have been hawked among Members of this House by German agents?
§ Lieut.-Colonel MOOREIf I have any right to answer that question, may I say that that is deliberately untrue, so far as I am concerned?
§ Colonel WEDGWOODIt was sent to me.
§ Mr. EDENIt was agreed recently that representations in regard to the situation in Memel should be made by His Majesty's Government, the French Government and the Italian Government to the Lithuanian Government.
§ Lieut.-Colonel MOORECan my right hon. Friend say if this joint action will enable representatives of the people of Memel to have the right to discuss the government of their own territory?
