§ Sir B. FALLEasked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether he will point out to the Argentine delegation now visiting this country that the railways in the Argentine which have been capitalised out of British savings under Argentine legislative sanction have been penalised by the policy of the Argentine authorities in running competing lines, in some cases organised by the Argentine Government; and will he obtain assurances of better treatment for the railways in Argentina capitalised by British investors?
§ Sir J. SIMON:The general position in regard to the treatment of British capital in the Argentine is receiving very careful consideration, and all the relevant facts will be borne in mind during the discussions.
