Captain A. Evansasked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs under what authority the League of Nations is proposing to broadcast news about world happenings other than its own affairs; and what is the attitude of the British Government on the matter?
§ Mr. EdenI am not quite sure to what new proposal my hon. and gallant Friend refers. The League of Nations has for some time past issued weekly objective news broadcasts in various languages, and the last Assembly recommended that this service should be developed, and voted a credit to this end. The United Kingdom Delegates supported this proposal.
