Sir GILBERT PARKERasked the Secretary of State for War whether the work done by the Territorial Forces on Salisbury Plain would seem to show that the number of efficient adjutants has increased since General Sir John French's last Report, which declared that a great number of them were lacking in competency?
§ Mr. HALDANEUntil I have received Sir John French's Report for the present year it will be impossible for me to reply to this question.
§ Mr. HALDANEI do not believe I will have the Report before the end of September or the beginning of October.
