Commander BOWER

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs what is the present position of the negotiations with the Chinese Government in respect of the arrears of interest on Chinese Government 10-year sterling bills, 1918, and Chinese Government 10-year sterling notes, 1919?

Sir S. HOARE

I would refer my hon. and gallant Friend to the answer which I gave yesterday in this connection to the hon. Member for Leicester, East (Mr. Lyons).

Commander BOWER

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether, before giving sanction far the raising of any loan in this country by the Chinese Government, he will take steps to ensure that that Government will meet its obligations in respect of existing issues?

Mr. CHAMBERLAIN

My hon. and gallant Friend may rest assured that I will carefully bear in mind the important matter to which he refers.
