HC Deb 03 February 1949 vol 460 c1832
41. Mr. Keeling

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department whether he is aware of recent attempts by Communist loud-speakers to interrupt military displays for encouraging Territorial Army recruiting; and whether he will introduce legislation to make any such attempts an offence.

Mr. Ede

My attention has been drawn to one such attempt which, I am informed, was quite unsuccessful. I have no evidence to suggest that special legislation on this subject is necessary.

Mr. Keeling

But, Communist methods being what they are, is it not likely that if this thing goes on unchecked it will spread?
