HC Deb 24 April 1913 vol 52 cc555-6W
Colonel YATE

asked the First Lord of the Admiralty what course of drill instruction it is proposed to give the crews in the serving of the guns with which merchant steamers are to be armed for purposes of defence, and when the courses are to be commenced?

Mr. CHURCHILL

This matter is still under consideration, and I am not prepared to make any statement upon it.
