§ 23. Sir BERTRAM FALLEasked the First Lord of the Admiralty if the recently introduced compulsory system of manning submarines is proving satisfactory, or if experience is showing that the older system was more efficient and led to greater contentment; and whether he will consider reverting to the older system, particularly for those ratings who joined up when the service in submarines was voluntary?
§ Mr. BRIDGEMANThe present system of manning submarines is proving quite satisfactory, and no reason is seen for any change.
