§ 32. Mr. Peytonasked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs what protest he has made to the Communist authorities in East Berlin concerning the kidnapping in West Berlin of Robert Bialek; and what reply has been received to such protest.
§ Mr. Dodds-ParkerThe Acting British Commandant in Berlin wrote to the Soviet Commandant on the 8th February informing him of the disappearance of Bialek in circumstances which are at present obscure and asking him to make inquiries. So far no reply has been received.
§ Mr. PeytonDoes my hon. Friend agree that the intolerable succession of unexplained crimes committed in Western Berlin makes it impossible to place any reliance whatever upon Communist good faith?
§ Mr. Dodds-ParkerI am afraid that there is much in what my hon. Friend says.
