HC Deb 08 May 1918 vol 105 c2121
Mr. JOYNSON-HICKS

I desire to present a Petition, signed by upwards of 16,000 of His Majesty's subjects, including many Members of both Houses of Parliament, asking this House to take the necessary steps to direct that a certain number of German prisoners or interned Germans should be carried on all merchant ships, as a protection to seamen and civilians travelling thereon, in view of the submarine policy of our enemies.
