§ 75. Mr. Stokesasked the Home Secretary whether the British subject, who sent the telegrams to President Roosevelt, thereby irregularly evading the censorship, which telegrams are alleged to have been shown by Mr. Tyler Kent to the hon. and gallant Member for Peebles and Southern (Captain Ramsay), has been prosecuted under paragraphs 1 and 4A of Defence Regulation 10; and, if so, with what result?
§ Mr. H. MorrisonNo information could properly be given about confidential documents which were abstracted from the American Embassy, but whatever may have been the nature of the documents in question, they do not provide the slightest foundation for the suggestion that someone had been guilty of evading the censorship or contravening Defence Regulation No. 10.
§ Mr. McGovernWere any of these cablegrams or messages sent by the Prime Minister behind the back of the then Prime Minister?
§ Mr. MorrisonI have nothing to add to the answer that I have given.
