TO WHOM MEMEL?
Declaration by Lithuanian
HITLER’S DISTURBING SPEECH
(British Official Wireless.) (Received 17, 12.30 p.m.) RUGBY, Sept. 16.
The Lithuanian Government has now replied to the joint representations made at Kovno at the end of last week by France, Britain and Italy regarding tho forthcoming elections in Memel. In London the reply is regarded as generally satisfactory.
The Lithuanian Government issued a public declaration on the subject in the League Assembly at Geneva to-day. The Lithuanian Foreign Minister, M. Lozoranitis, referred to the Memel question and to the recent speech of the German Chancellor. The Lithuanian Government, he said, was not asking the League of Nations to take up the question, but he said he was convinced that a certain declaration which had been made elsewhere was of a nature to disturb the good atmosphere that should prevail between the nations. Lithuania would continue in her devotion to the League, which, he added, was not only an organisation for the settlement of disputes, but could also prevent them. [Earlier message on page 9.]
