HANBURY (Preston)I beg to ask the Secretary of State for India whether the cordite plant sent to 34 India has been successful in producing reliable cordite; whether the use of cordite manufactured in India is considered satisfactory by the authorities there; and, will he lay upon the table any correspondence thereon?
