§ 72. Mr. BURGOYNEasked what are now the latest dates for delivery of the battleships "Ajax" and "Audacious" and the battle-cruiser "Queen Mary"; and whether there is likely to be any delay in the construction of the battleships "Delhi" and "Benbow" and the battle-cruiser "Tiger"?
§ Mr. CHURCHILLThese vessels are progressing as rapidly as possible, and I do not desire at the present time to be led into definite statements in regard to them. Similar information is not readily forthcoming about the ships of other countries.
