§ Mr. Noel-BakerMy Noble Friend has publicly and repeatedly expressed his high appreciation of the magnificent way in which all railwaymen, in every rank of their great service, have responded to the severe demands made upon them by the war, and I am sure that in so doing he was only voicing the general sentiment both of the country and of the House.
§ Sir T. MooreAs I have much more to say on this subject, I beg to give notice that I shall raise the matter on the Adjournment.
§ Mr. Evelyn Walkden rose——
