Pirow), after enduring bitter taunts in the Assembly regarding his recent mission to Europe, tersely enumerated his discussions as follows:—“Airways reciprocity; trade relations with Portugal and Belgium. I investigated in Spain modern warfare methods in territory corresponding to the Union’s; I discussed trade relations with Germany and Italy; paid a goodwill visit to Holland, and discussed the international situation with special reference to lasting world peace with European statesmen.” Mr. Pirow’s attitude was approved by his Ministerial colleagues.
