Lieut.-Colonel MALONEasked the First Commissioner of Works whether his attention has been drawn to the fact that the only conspicuous symbols of religion on the cenotaph in Whitehall are the 1666W prominent Jewish triangles at the corners; and whether he will instruct the custodians to give equal prominence to the recognised symbols of other religions?
§ Mr. PARKERThere are no religious symbols on the Cenotaph, and the reference to prominent Jewish triangles at the corners is, therefore, not understood. If reference is intended to the flowers placed on the steps of the monument, I may say that the custodian has had no instructions as to giving prominence to any floral tribute.
