§ Mr. G. FABERIs the fact that the War Loan Bill is being taken an indication that we are to have an unusually long Recess?
§ Mr. BONAR LAWNot at all. It is simply that if we think it opportune we may take advantage of the situation before the House meets again.
§ Mr. McKENNAHow long will be the period of adjournment of the House?
§ Mr. BONAR LAWMy right hon. Friend will understand that owing to the illness of the Prime Minister I have been able to see him but seldom. I have seen him this morning, and our present intention is to Prorogue on Friday if we can. The House will reassemble by Proclamation of the Sovereign, which is expected to take place early in February.
