§ 19. Mr. John Dugdaleasked the Secretary of State for War whether British soldiers qualified and employed as camp 612 interpreters in German obtain the rank and pay of Staff Sergeant.
§ Sir J. GriggYes, Sir. The establishments of prisoners of war camps provide for such posts.
§ Mr. DugdaleIf that is so, why do not Germans employed in the British Army as interpreters in English receive similar treatment?
§ Sir J. GriggThe hon. Member is raising again a particular case which he has raised over and over again. The answer is that this particular man does not satisfy the conditions which qualify for the extra rank and pay.
