Mr. Elwyn Jones
asked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether, in view of the importance of reopening our trading, political and cultural relations with China, His Majesty's Government are taking steps to promote a settlement between the parties to the widespread civil war in that country.
Mr. Bevin
