HC Deb 07 December 1938 vol 342 c1149
18. Mr. Mander

asked the Prime Minister whether he will consider the advisability of making representations to the German Government for the cessation of the supply of money and anti-semitic propaganda literature printed in Arabic and German and distributed to Arabs in Damascus and Palestine?

Mr. Butler

Consideration has been and will be given to all reports received on the distribution of such literature and money in Palestine.

Mr. Mender

Would it not be in accordance with the policy of appeasement that Germany should cease to stir up trouble for us in Palestine and elsewhere, and cannot the most vigorous remonstrances be made on the subject?

Mr. Butler

The hon. Member has asked that consideration should be given to certain reports, and I have said that it will be given.

Lieut.-Commander Fletcher

Have any specimens of this propaganda and literature been sent to the Foreign Office for investigation?

Mr. Butler

I shall be pleased to receive anything that the hon. and gallant Gentleman sends me.

Lieut.-Commander Fletcher

Have any been received?

Mr. Butler

I should require notice of that question.
