HC Deb 10 May 1922 vol 153 c2206W
Major ENTWISTLE

asked the Under-Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether detachments of Red sailors are being organised at Archangel for vessels intended to protect the Russian territorial waters in the Murmansk district against British fishermen up to a limit of 12 miles and two transports armed with guns of small calibre and munitions been dispatched from Petrograd for this purpose; and, if so, what steps the British Government propose to take in the matter?

Earl WINTERTON

His Majesty's Government have no confirmation of the report referred to by the hon. and gallant Member. The latter part of the question does not, therefore, arise.
