HC Deb 24 March 1922 vol 152 c826W
Commander BELLAIRS

asked the Under-Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs what is the extent of the mobilisation decrees of the Soviet Government in Russia; whether any indication has been afforded of the object of these mobilisations on the eve of the Genoa Conference; and what will be the size of the Soviet Army on the completion of mobilisation?

Sir L. WORTHINGTOON-EVANS

I have been asked to answer this question, and I would refer my hon. and gallant Friend to the reply given yesterday by my right hon. Friend the Lord Privy Seal to my hon. Friend the Member for the Belper Division of Derbyshire (Mr. Hancock). In regard to the last part of the question, no information as to the numbers involved is available.
