London, June 19.
Mr. Neville Chamberlain, the Prime Minister, stated in the House of Commons today that Anglo-Soviet discussions at Moscow were still proceeding. Last Thursday afternoon, M. Paul Naggiar and Sir William Seeds, the French and British Ambassadors respectively, accompanied by Mr. William Strang, had been received by M. Molotov, the Soviet Foreign Commissar, to whom Sir William Seeds had explained the latest Anglo-French proposals.
'A further meeting had taken place on Friday afternoon, when M. Molotov communicated to the French and British representatives certain observations of the Soviet Government on these proposals, Mr. Chamberlain' indicated in a supplementary answer that the outstanding differences were not confined to the question of the position of the Baltic States.
He was also asked if the instructions to Sir William Seeds were wide enough to obviate a reference back te London. He replied:
"I think that must be determined by how the discussions proceed. It may be that further fresh points may be raised requiring reference back, put I am not aware of any.""—Wireless through Reuter.
