REPORTED PEACE MOVE BY VATICAN
NO STATEMENT IN HOUSE OF COMMONS (British Official Wireless) (Received May 16, 6.30 p.m.) RUGBY, May 15.
The Under-Secretary for Foreign Affairs (Mr R. A. Butler) said in the House of Commons that he had no statement to make on the reported initiative by the Vatican. “As members will doubtless have seen in the Press, his Holiness has not made any form of proposals,” said Mr Butler, “but I can assure the House that the Government is naturally most sympathetic to any steps which his Holiness may think can usefully be taken with a view to furthering the interests of world peace.”
