HC Deb 19 December 1941 vol 376 c2234
18. Mr. Wakefield

asked the Minister of Information what steps he is taking to supplement the valuable lectures, given by Mr. Bernard Newman of his Department, to make more widely known to the people of this country the atrocities committed by the Germans in the occupied territories of Europe?

Mr. Thurtle

It is the constant endeavour of the Ministry by broadcasts, leaflets and other means, to familiarise the British people with conditions in Europe under German rule. I should be glad if my hon. Friend would give me any particular suggestions he may have in mind.

Mr. Wakefield

Would the hon. Gentle-man consider the wider circulation of the book issued by the Polish Republic upon the subject of the German occupation of Poland, and of similar authenticated books?

Mr. Thurtle

The Minister is prepared to consider all useful suggestions in that direction.
