Colonial Question Will Not Be Discussed
ANG-LO-ITALIAN TALKS (British Official Wireless.) Received Thursday, 7.5 p.m. ItUGBY, March 16. The Prime Minister, Mr. Neville Chamberlain, was asked in the House of Commons whether in view of the AngloItalian conversations it was still the opinion of the Government that the Colonial question was not one that could be considered in isolation, as a number of other countries would be involved. Mr. Chamberlain said he did not anticipate the Anglo-Italian conversations would be concerned with that subject. The Government had not altered its view as expressed in the Anglo-French communique issued in November that the whole question was not one which could be considered in isolation and, moreover, that it involved other countries. To a supplementary question whether the German annexation of Austria prejudiced discussions on this question, ill-. Chamberlain replied: "It is obvious that in the present circumstances nothing further can be done in that direction.”
