HC Deb 18 May 1915 vol 71 cc2162-3W
Commander BELLAIRS

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether he will draw the attention of the new Committee dealing with interned aliens to the fact that there are numbers of Czechs and Poles fighting on the side of Russia and of France; that there are very marked distinctions, both in their sympathies and in the treatment given to our prisoners by their country of origin, between Hungarians and our other enemies; and whether he will ask for the cases of Czechs, Poles, and Hungarians to be considered first?

Sir E. GREY

I have no doubt that the points to which the hon. and gallant Member draws attention will be duly taken into consideration by the new Committee.
