Captain FABERasked the Secretary of State for War if he will state whether the chief constable of a county in Scotland asked the War Office whether they could arrange for the mobilisation of troops to take place in winter, as the horses in his county, being used for agricultural purposes, were not available in the summer months?
§ The SECRETARY of STATE for WAR (Mr. Haldane)There is no information at the War Office to show that a chief constable asked any such question.
