§ Sir BRAMPTON GURDON (Norfolk, N.)I beg to ask the Under Secretary of State for War whether he will now consider the advisability of abolishing the messing allowance with all its complica- 484 tions, and adding in lieu thereof three pence a day to the pay of the warrant officers, non-commissioned officers, and men of the Regular forces and Militia.
*MR. J. POWELL-WILLIAMS (for Mr. WYNDHAM)It is not considered advisable to make a change in the direction suggested.
