HC Deb 05 February 1941 vol 368 c914
3. Mr. Mander

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs what progress is being made in the study of post-war conditions by the organs of the League of Nations now in Canada and the United States of America?

Mr. Butler

My right hon. Friend understands that the work of the Economic and Financial Section of the League now in the United States is proceeding satisfactorily. The staff of the International Labour Organisation, at present established in Canada, is carrying on the work of the organisation as far as possible on normal lines.

Mr. Mander

Am I right in assuming that it is the desire of the Government to make the fullest practical use of the organisations of the League now in the United States and Canada?

Mr. Butler

Yes, Sir, certainly the hon. Member is right in making that assumption.

Mr. Liddall

Will my right hon. Friend consider sending the hon. Member for East Wolverhampton (Mr. Mander) to Geneva for the duration?

Mr. Mander

Will my right hon. Friend be good enough not to take any advice from "Municheers"?
