112. Mr. KEIR HARDIE

asked the Financial Secretary to the War Office whether any decision has yet been reached concerning the claim to allowance of a soldier's child born before the marriage of its parents; and whether the practice of the War Office in regard to such cases will be made to conform to the law of Scotland?

Mr. BAKER

Yes, Sir, separation allowance will be made in these cases during the War.
