HC Deb 05 May 1930 vol 238 cc655-6W
Captain P. MACDONALD

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether he can make any statement as to the situation in China?

Mr. A. HENDERSON

A statement was issued in the Press of the 2nd of May to the effect that a coalition of Northern Generals and the Reorganisationist section of the Kuomintang was being formed with a view to the overthrow of the head of the Nanking Government. It was stated that, as soon as this new organisation was completed, a new Government would be set up. I have no information of any other important development.
