§ 21. Captain Ramsayasked the Home Secretary whether he has granted any applications from foreigners desirous of attending the Anti-God Congress, which 499 has been arranged to be held at the Conway Hall on the 9th, 10th, and 11th of September?
§ Sir S. HoareThe answer is in the negative.
§ Captain RamsayIn view of the fact that at least two representative and responsible organisations are prepared to submit definite evidence of the fact that this Congress has been arranged in cooperation with the International Godless Movement at Moscow, will my right hon. Friend receive a deputation with a view to excluding the attendance of any foreigner?
§ Sir S. HoareI am quite ready to receive any information that my hon. and gallant Friend may wish to give me, but I have answered the question on the Paper, and have said that I have not had any application of this kind.
§ Mr. David GrenfellWhen the right hon. Gentleman does receive the information, will the hon. and gallant Member give the authority upon which it is based?
§ Captain Ramsayindicated assent.
Mr. GallecherOn a point of Order. Is it in order for hon. Members, in questions, deliberately to misrepresent what is taking place at a particular gathering in London? Time and again such misrepresentations are made.
§ Mr. SpeakerIt is certainly not in order, but I am sorry to say it is very often done.
