§ 21. Major Legge-Bourkeasked the Secretary of State for War if he is satisfied that the lectures on economics, drama and mathematics given to Service students at Welbeck Abbey during the past six months have been conducted without political bias.
§ Mr. ShinwellEvery effort is made to keep Army Education free from propaganda for any movement or party. I have had no reports of political bias being shown in lectures on any subject at the Army College referred to.
§ Major Legge-BourkeWould the right hon. Gentleman look into this matter again? According to my information, all the three courses of lectures mentioned have been given at one time or another with great political bias.
§ Mr. ShinwellPerhaps the hon. and gallant Gentleman will let me have the information on which he has based his Question?
Mr. H. D. HughesWill my right hon. Friend see if there is such a thing as Conservative mathematics and if so bring it to the hon. and gallant Gentleman's attention.
