23. Mr. ERSKINEasked the Secretary of State for War whether, seeing that during the late War the infantry traction proved, under service conditions, to be inadequate, he will consult the official records at the War Office from fighting units as to the comparative merits of the Furber hand-ambulance and the Miller James hand-ambulance before deciding on the official pattern?
§ Sir L. WORTHINGTON-EVANSThe question of infantry traction is one which is under continual investigation by the military authorities, and all available records on the subject, including those relating to the comparative value of different hand-ambulances, have been fully considered.
§ Sir L. WORTHINGTON - EVANSThey are produced to me, but not to my hon. Friend.
