AID TO CHINA
London, To-day.
The British Government proposes to continue to give effect to the resolutions of the League of Nations in favour of maximum sympathetic aid to China.
The Under-Secretary for Foreign Affairs, Mr. R. A. Butler, made this statement in the House of Commons yesterday in reply to Mr. J. W. Ban- field (Labour), who asked a question in con- nection with the recent Geneva speech by the Foreign Secretary.
Asked by Mr. Robert Morgan (Conservative) to state what effect the Government had given to
the
various League resolutions, Mr. Butler said he was sending Mr. Mor- gan an extract from the minutes of the League Council.
At the Council meeting Lord Hali- fax had made it clear that the Gov- ernment had not departed from the policy prescribed for League mem- bers in previous resolutions, men- tioning the lines in which they had taken action in recognition of their obligations under those resolutions.
