GERMAN AMBASSADOR
MR. GALLACHER’S REFERENCE MR. EDEN’S RECENT APOLOGY. LONDON, Nov. 5. ■ Mr. Gallacher (Communist member [for West Fife) caused laughter in the jHouse of Commons when, in a reference to Mr. Eden’s talk with Herr Won Ribbentrop, in which the latter .took exception to Mr. Gallacher’s I statement in a speech, he asked: “What right had Mr. Eden to apoloigise for anything I may have said?” I The Speaker said that offensive atItacks against a representative of a friendly Power were most improper. llf he had heard these remarks he I would have insisted on their with- ' drawal. ’, Mr. E. Thurtle (Labour) suggested that the only mistake Mr. Gallacher made was to attribute the- crime of murder to the Ambassador instead of the Government he represented. I The matter then dropped.
