HC Deb 21 June 1920 vol 130 c1745
45. Captain BENN

asked the Prime Minister what public authorities have declined to receive and exhibit war trophies?

Sir A. WILLIAMSON

My right hon. Friend has asked me to reply. A certain number of public authorities have declined to receive certain War trophies, mainly on the ground of want of accommodation for guns. Some authorities, however, who have refused guns, have accepted smaller trophies. I may add that the number of applications for guns is largely in excess of the stock available.

Captain LOSEBY

Generally speaking, in those public authorities which have declined to receive war trophies, is there not a majority of individuals who did their best to prevent the country winning the War at all?
