HC Deb 19 February 1917 vol 90 c999W
Commander WEDGWOOD

asked the Under-Secretary of State for War whether he will grant facilities for American newspaper correspondents in this country to interview wounded Americans in this country who are serving with His Majesty's Forces?

Mr. MACPHERSON

Subject to the ordinary hospital rules, there is nothing to prevent an individual going to see a wounded soldier in hospital; and provided that the latter does not disclose any military information the War Office has no desire to prevent him from recounting his adventures.
