HC Deb 07 March 1916 vol 80 cc1344-5
103. Mr. SNOWDEN

asked the President of the Local Government Board if he will say what action he proposes to take upon the conduct of the Mayor of Croydon who has utilised the local National Register to send out circular letters to unattested men of military age stating that in their own interests the men should attest before 2nd March, and that if they were desirous of claiming exemption under the Military Service Act, 1916, they should attest at once?

Mr. LONG

I do not consider it necessary to take any steps in this matter.
