HC Deb 07 April 1913 vol 51 cc806-7
102. Sir J. D. REES

asked the Secretary of State for War whether the Estimates submitted to the House will be radically reconstructed in view of the information made public since their submission regarding the fleet of airships maintained by Germany, and the provision made in the extraordinary Estimates of that Empire for further augmenting and perfecting the aerial arm of the Service?

Colonel SEELY

I would refer the hon. Gentleman to the reply given by the Prime Minister to a similar question on Wednesday of last week.

Mr. KING

Will the right hon. Gentleman consult the Members of this House who have most experience in the gas bag business?
