39. Lieut.-Commander KENWORTHY

asked the Secretary of State for Air whether he is ensuring the entry of a British machine or machines for the next race for the Schneider Cup?

Sir S. HOARE

I am informed by the Royal Aero Club that the full number of British entries, namely, three, have been made for the next Schneider Cup race.

Lieut.-Commander KENWORTHY

Is my right hon. Friend satisfied that these machines will actually take part in the race?

Sir S. HOARE

I have every hope that they will take part in the race, and I have every hope that one of them will win the race.
