§ 33. Mr. M. Stewartasked the Secretary of State for War whether he will intimate to governing bodies of schools in which there are contingents of the combined cadet force, that in future grants will only be given to the force on condition that recruitment is voluntary.
§ Mr. StewartDoes the right hon. Gentleman think it right that there should be imposed on boys of 14 a degree of compulsion which the nation does not impose even on young men of call-up age?
§ Mr. HeadIt would be most unwise if I were to interfere with the running of schools. Presumably the conditions of schools are made known to parents who send their boys there voluntarily.
