HC Deb 27 March 1913 vol 50 cc1848-9W
Mr. WATT

asked the Secretary for Foreign Affairs what was the reason alleged for the withdrawal of America from the six-Power financial group dealing with Chinese loans; and whether the same reason applies to the action of this country?

Sir E. GREY

The only explanation I have of the reasons for the decision of the Government of the United States are those which have appeared in the Press. The hon. Member is, therefore, in as good a position as I am to answer the question.
