HC Deb 18 July 1934 vol 292 c1110W
Mr. JOEL

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether the coming Naval Conference to discuss the limitation of armaments will bear in mind the original terms of the invitation extended by President Harding on the occasion of the first Washington Conference, namely, that the Conference should also discuss Pacific and Far Eastern questions?

Sir J. SIMON

So far as I am aware, it is not proposed that the Conference should discuss other than naval problems.
