HC Deb 15 July 1918 vol 108 c687
17. Mr. GULLAND

asked the President of the Board of Trade whether, in view of the national dedication services to be held throughout the country on Sunday, 4th August, he will authorise the use of petrol for conveyance to church on that day, so that old people, invalids, and young children living at a distance from their church may be able to attend public worship without incurring the risk of fine or imprisonment?

Sir A. STANLEY
