             -24-#669, Eighteenth, from London.             
 
                                                            
 
 
from a document sent to him by the British Ambassador in Athens. 
  May I be allowed to ask that the papers be laid upon the t
 
                                                            
 
 
    The Prime Minister: It is fully within the rights---    
 
                                                            
 
 
Mr. A. Bevan: The right Hon. Gentleman is not the chairman. 
 
                                                            
 
 
The Chairman (Major Milner): The Hon. Gentleman has put a 
      question to me. The answer is that except in matters where it 
      is against the public interest it is usual to lay such documents 
                          on the table.                     
 
      Mr. Gallacher: I want to ask if it is in order for the Prime 
      Minister to quote from one of his own Speeches 25 years ago about 
                          Soviet Russia?                    
 
                                                            
 
 
The Prime Minister: Evidently the chance remark which I made 
      the other day to the Hon. Member has stung him deeply. I shall 
      continue to probe carefully the exact political shade which he 
      adopts. With regard to this document I think I should be quite 
            ready to lay the telegram which I quoted.       
 
                                                            
 
 
              A Mr. Bevan: The whole document?              
 
                                                            
 
 
The Prime Minister: The whole document subject to anything 
    that may be excluded on the grounds of the public intere
 
                                                            
 
 
       Mr. Bevan: On the account of public security?
