HC Deb 16 November 1933 vol 281 c1149W
Mr. McENTEE

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether, in view of the neutral attitude adopted by the British Government in relation to the violation by one of the signatories of the Covenant of its principles in connection with the Far Eastern trouble, he can state whether any other Power equally signatory with ourselves has adopted this policy in this dispute or in any other of a similar nature?

Mr. EDEN

I do not quite understand the hon. Member's reference to a "neutral attitude." I would, however, draw the hon. Member's attention to the fact that His Majesty's Government were not alone in subscribing to the resolution adopted by the Assembly of the League of Nations on 24th February, 1933. It was, in fact, unanimously adopted.
