42. Brigadier-General SPEARS

asked the Secretary of State for War when he will be in a position to make a statement concerning the advances, if any, in methods of mechanical warfare adopted in the Army since the War; and whether a reorganisation of the Army is in contemplation with a view to saving man power by developing fire power?

Mr. WALSH

Advances in the direction of utilising improved mechanical devices are being made, and the subject is under constant consideration and experiment with a view to further improvement.
