§ 46. Mr. Rhys Davies
asked the Prime Minister whether His Majesty's Government have been approached by the Washington Government on the subject of a declaration of peace aims to be termed the Pacific Charter being made by the Allied nations?

§ Mr. Attlee
No, Sir.

§ Mr. Davies
In view of the fact that this country was deeply involved in the drawing up of the Atlantic Charter, would His Majesty's Government consider taking the initiative with a view to getting such a declaration covering the Pacific?

§ Captain McEwen
Ought there not to be a limit to the number of charters that we have?
