HC Deb 14 November 1917 vol 99 cc392-3W
Major H. TERRELL

asked the Prime Minister whether he has official information showing that the Germans are using against British troops large quantities of English-made guns and ammunition, part of which were captured from the Russians and part of which were purchased by the Germans from Russian revolutionaries?

Mr. MACPHERSON

There is no further definite information beyond what I gave on 31st October to my hon. Friend the Member for the West Toxteth Division of Liverpool; that was to the effect that a British 4.5-inch howitzer captured by the Germans on the Eastern Front was being used by them in Flanders at the beginning of October.
