§ General CROFT (by Private Notice)asked the Prime Minister if he will give an early opportunity to Parliament to express its congratulations to the Navy and Army on the recent series of brilliant victories?
§ Mr. BONAR LAWNo formal Resolution is needed to give expression to the admiration and gratitude which is felt by the House of Commons and the country for the men who on every front are so nobly fighting our battles on land and sea. It would, however, I am sure, be a satisfaction to the House of Commons to pass such a Resolution; but, as the battle is still raging, I do not think that the present time would be the most suitable occasion for it.
