§ 8. Rear-Admiral ADAIRasked the Secretary of State for War whether he will consider the advisability of providing gunmetal or other suitable material derived from guns or other munitions captured from the enemy for the purposes of county or city war memorials; and, if so, whether he will make an announcement on the subject?
§ The SECRETARY Of STATE for WAR (Mr. Churchill)I am informed that all captured guns are likely to be required for disposal as trophies of war. Should any such guns or other stores be found not suitable for use as trophies, the possibility of utilising them for the purpose suggested by my hon. and gallant Friend will be considered.
