§ 60. Mr. MANDERasked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs if he will direct the British Ambassador in Berlin to obtain information with reference to the chairs of military science which have been established recently at most of the German universities; and if he will obtain the names of these universities and information as to whether they are privately endowed or subsidised by the Government?
§ The UNDER-SECRETARY of STATE for FOREIGN AFFAIRS (Mr. Eden)I am informed that there are chairs of "Wehrwissenschaft" (or of the "Science of Defence") at the Technical High School at Berlin, and at the Institute for military history and "Wehrwissenschaft," which was opened at Heidelberg last May. These are, according to my information, the only two chairs in this science established in Germany at the present time. As regards the second part of the question, education in Germany is controlled and financed by the Government.
