§ Sir J. AndersonAs I have already indicated, the primary question for consideration at the present time is whether the war situation has produced special conditions calling for special war-time measures.

§ Mr. LipsonWhile thanking the right hon. Gentleman for his reply, may I ask whether the activities of those who are responsible will be kept under a watchful eye?
§ Sir J. AndersonContinuously.
