HC Deb 28 March 1911 vol 23 c1128
Sir CHARLES HUNTER

asked whether the Secretary of State for War will, having regard to his statement in the opening sentences of his preface to the book Compulsory Service that it is important that the materials for forming a judgment on the subject should be before the public, give similar sanction and facilities to those given for the publication of Compulsory Service for the publication of other views of a different complexion held by general officers on the active list?

Colonel SEELY

I have nothing to add to the replies given by the Secretary of State on the 21st instant in reply to questions put by the hon. Member for Taunton.

Sir CLEMENT KINLOCH-COOKE

Can we now know the profits from the sale of this book?

Colonel SEELY

I do not think that question has yet been asked.

Sir C. KINLOCH-COOKE

I ask it now.

Colonel SEELY

I am afraid I do not know.

Sir C. KINLOCH-COOKE

Will the right hon. Gentleman make inquiries?

Colonel SEELY

Yes.
