HC Deb 11 March 1918 vol 104 cc65-6W
Mr. WATT

asked the Home Secretary whether he has any statistics as to the number of naturalised Germans still resi- dent at Folkestone, where so much traffic with France takes place; and how many aliens and Belgians are now in that town?

Sir G. CAVE

The number of naturalised British subjects of German origin at present residing at Folkestone is six. The number of aliens, including British-born women married to aliens, is 1,178, of whom 849 are Belgians, 104 are French, 75 are Italians, and none are Germans. The majority of the male Belgians are in the employment of the Belgian Government.
