§ 108. Mr. SNOWDENasked the Under-Secretary of State for War why the Army Form W 3236 has been sent in very large numbers to friendly aliens in this country who were registered as such in the National Register; and whether, in cases where aliens have answered the summons under a misapprehension, they are being accepted for the Army?
§ Mr. TENNANTBritish-born subjects who are the sons of aliens and aliens who have been naturalised are accepted.
§ Mr. SNOWDENThe right hon. Gentleman has not answered my question: If these documents have been sent to friendly aliens and they have been accepted under a misapprehension, will they be released?
§ Mr. TENNANTI do not see that the answer I have given does not answer my hon. Friend's question. He asked me why the form has been sent in large numbers to aliens, and I have said it is because aliens who have been naturalised—
§ Mr. SNOWDENThese have not.
§ Mr. TENNANTThen I can only suppose a mistake has been made. It was in order to get in aliens who have been naturalised that the form has been issued.
