Mr. Walter Guiness maintained, the Government had acted perfectly correctly towards Poland. He pointed out the present state of war was due to the Bolshevists, with whom the Poles had repeatedly tried to negotiate.

Mr. Churchill interrupting) said the statement did not imply we were on the verge of a great catastrophe. We were in a period af great disturbance and increasing degeneration in many parts of the world, but anything similar to the German onrush in 1914 need not bej expected again.
Lord Robert Cecil complained that an unparalleled opportunity for making the League of Nations a reality was lost by not referring the Polish-Russian dispute to it.
