§ 26. Sir C. KINLOCH-COOKEasked the Secretary of State for War whether he will consider the possibility of setting apart a day for a march through the Metropolis of the London Territorial regiments who took part in the War?
Captain GUESTI understand that the Lord Mayor of London hopes to arrange for a Triumphal March of London Regiments through London, though I have no definite information yet in regard to this proposal. I would refer my hon. Friend to the reply which I gave on 25th March to the hon. Member for Rochdale, to the effect that directions have been given that the question of triumphal marches of troops in their territorial areas should be studied with a view to action in all possible cases. My hon. Friend may rest assured that London will not be overlooked in this connection.
§ Sir C. KINLOCH-COOKEWill the hon. Gentleman put himself in communication with the Lord Mayor, so as to settle the matter at an early date?
Sir F. HALLIn communicating with the Lord Mayor, will the War Office ask him to consider the advisability of communicating with the mayors of the various Meropolitan boroughs?
