§ 77. Mr. DAVID MASONasked the Prime Minister whether he will give a day for the discussion of the Motion regarding the termination of the War and the proposals of the Imperial German Chancellor, standing in the name of the Member for Coventry—["To move, that, in the opinion of this House, and in view of the repeated statements of the Imperial 587 German Chancellor that Germany has been, and is, prepared to discuss the termination of the War, a Commission should be appointed for the purpose of carrying out that object"]?
§ Mr. BONAR LAWI am unaware that the German Chancellor has proposed any terms of peace that are not based on a recognition of German victory, and I am convinced that the overwhelming majority of the House agree with me that no useful purpose would be served by such a discussion at the present time.
§ Mr. MASONI beg to give notice that I hope to raise this question to-morrow evening on the Adjournment.
