LIEUT.-Commander KENWCRTHYasked the Prime Minister whether his attention has been drawn to recent statements in the Press to the effect that, according to General Mannerheim and other leading Finns, inducements are being held out to the Republic of Finland by the Allies to intervene in the civil war in Russia; and, if any inducements have been held out to Finland, what these inducements are?
Mr. HARMSWORTHThe answer to the first part of the question is that the252W statements are unfounded, as far as His Majesty's Government are concerned; the second part, therefore, does not arise.
