Germany's Old Colonies.
p. 10 · Read in the full issue
A BRITISH parliamentary committee representing 200 Conservative members of the House of Commons resolved on March 16 that the British Government should be advised that the cession of territories under British mandate should not even be discussed.
Well-informed opinion at the present moment is that the return of the former German colonies is not at present under discussion. ..
Britain has no intention of trying to bribe the aggressive members of the Fascist triangle (Germany, Italy, and Japan) into agreeing to a more peace ful arrangement of world affairs, by offering to cede territories. But, pre sently, if the Fascist triangle, or any members thereof, should give evidence of a willingness to enter a league of democratic nations for the maintenance of world peace, then it is considered inevitable that the late German col onies will become the subject of inter national bargaining.
