Mr. W. GRAHAM

his question on this subject on 4th July, 1928, a copy of which I am sending to him.

Mr. KELLY

asked the President of the Board of Trade why the agent of the Clearing Office Enemy Debts Department made affidavits and gave assurances to purchasers of certain foreign bearer bonds that such bonds had never been the property of ex-enemy nationals?

Mr. W. GRAHAM

I am not aware that any such assurance has ever been given by an agent of the Enemy Debts Department to purchasers of foreign bearer bonds. If, however, the hon. Member is able to cite a specific instance and will furnish full particulars so that the case can be identified, I will have the matter carefully investigated.
