EARL of RONALDSHAYasked whether the foreign-made wall-bars and beams recently supplied to the military depots throughout the country have proved satisfactory, or whether any reports have been received to the effect that the apparatus has not proved durable and even in some cases already become unsafe?
§ Mr. HALDANEThe foreign-made wall-bars and beams recently supplied to military depots throughout the country have proved entirely satisfactory. No reports have been received either at the War Office or by the Inspector of Gymnasia of any lack of durability or as to the apparatus being unsafe.
EARL of RONALDSHAYAre we to understand that no repairs have been made to the apparatus recently set up?
§ Mr. HALDANEI did not say that. Apparatus which has been a certain time in use requires a certain amount of repair. All I said was that it had proved entirely satisfactory.
