§ MR. CHIOZZA MONEYTo ask the Secretary of State for War whether his attention has boon directed to the fact that John Whitworth, stoker, of Plum-stead, who was discharged from Woolwich Arsenal a few weeks ago, has committed suicide, the coroner's jury deciding that his mind was evidently affected by his dismissal; and whether, in view of his responsibility to this House for the proper management of national Army workshops, he will afford it an early opportunity of discussing the recent dismissals.
(Answered by Mr. Secretary Haldane.) My attention has been drawn to this lamentable occurrence. I much regret that these discharges must take place. I 1090 have just explained under what circumstances they have been made.
