25. Major HUNT

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department whether he is aware that there is a Mrs. Wright, a German woman who was divorced from her husband, an Englishman, and who now keeps a boarding-house at Eastbourne; that a daughter of hers, Clara Elise Wright, is now employed in the Censor's Department of the Shipping Controller; that she has relations fighting against us in the German army at the present time; and whether he will have this woman's appointment cancelled?

The PARLIAMENTARY SECRETARY to the MINISTRY of SHIPPING CONTROL (Sir Leo Chiozza Money)

My right hon. Friend has asked me to answer this question. My hon. and gallant Friend has been misinformed. No person of this name is employed at the Ministry of Shipping.
