§ 44. Lieut.-Commander KENWORTHYasked the Prime Minister whether he has now received information regarding the reported mobilisation of several classes of Hungarian conscripts; and what action is contemplated by His Majesty's Government?
§ The PRIME MINISTERWhen the national army was first formed in August last, men between the ages of 25 and 35 were called up. In December last all men over 25 were released, and service was restricted to those between the ages of 21 and 25, the period for service being two months. The total effectives of the Hungarian army will be limited by the Treaty of Peace. At present they appear to be below the strength which it is proposed to fix.
§ Lieut.-Commander KENWORTHYIs there any truth in the report that some twenty classes have been recently called to the Colours?
§ The PRIME MINISTERI believe not.
