HC Deb 01 November 1948 vol 457 c494
14. Professor Savory

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether he will lay before the House the documentary evidence used by the Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs at the Meeting of the United Nations Committee in Paris on 14th October, showing that great public works have been made possible in the U.S.S.R. only by slave labour.

Mr. Mayhew

The sources of the information given are stated in the speech itself, a copy of which I will have placed in the Library.

Professor Savory

Would the hon. Gentleman say if it is a fact that these unfortunate people were treated worse than domestic animals?

Mr. Mayhew

Not in those terms. Perhaps the hon. Member would refer to the speech.
