HC Deb 27 January 1943 vol 386 cc502-3
57. Mr. Alexander Walkden

asked the Minister of Supply whether his attention has been drawn to the publication in this country of a 20-page pamphlet, entitled "Why is the Rumanian Army Fighting?" by Mr. Iliescu, formerly Assistant Military Attaché at the Rumanian Embassy in London, in which he disparages our Russian Allies; whether the supply of paper for this purpose was officially approved, and whether he will arrange for steps to be taken to prevent similar wastage of paper in future, and ensure that the printing trade refrains from assisting any other attempts to lessen the prestige of any of our fighting Allies?

Sir A. Duncan

I have not seen this pamphlet and so far as I have been able to trace no paper has been licensed specifically for its publication, but I am making inquiries.
