§ Mr. CHAPLINCan the Prime Minister state what will be the business to-morrow and on Thursday?
§ The PRIME MINISTERTo-morrow, I shall ask leave to introduce a Bill dealing with Military Service.
On Thursday, we hope to give an opportunity for the discussion of the Motion standing in the name of the hon. Member for Hereford (Mr. Hewins):—
"Prosecution of the War,—That, with a view to increasing the power of the Allies in the prosecution of the War, His Majesty's Government should enter into immediate consultation with the Governments of the Dominions in order with their aid to bring the whole economic strength of the Empire into cooperation with our Allies in a policy directed against the enemy."
§ Mr. G. TERRELLWill the House sit on Friday?
§ The PRIME MINISTERWe shall see. I do not know why it should.
§ Mr. SHERWELLIn view of the unusually large number of Members who desire to take part in the discussion of the Bill which he has promised to introduce to-morrow, will the Prime Minister give facilities for more than one day's discussion?
§ The PRIME MINISTERI do not think anybody knows in the least what the Bill is going to be.
§ Mr. ALDENIn view of the fact that the Home Secretary has resigned, does not the Prime Minister consider it extremely probable that a large number of Members will wish to take part in the Debate?
§ The PRIME MINISTEROf course I shall see how things shape.
§ Mr. BOOTHWill the Prime Minister consider that a still larger number of us wish to push on with the Bill?
