§ GENERAL RUSSELL (Cheltenham)I beg to ask the Under Secretary of State for War whether, as regards the recent regulations, which make it impossible for any man between the heights of 5 ft. 9 in. and 5 ft. 11 in. to enlist in the British Cavalry, efforts will be made to prevent desirable recruits of this height who are disinclined to enlist in the Infantry or Artillery being lost to Her Majesty's Service?
MR. POWELL-WILLIAMSThe hon. and gallant Member may rest assured that the recruiting authorities will not omit an effort to induce such recruits to enter some branch of the service for which they are eligible.
