HC Deb 29 October 1919 vol 120 c719W
Mr. WATERSON

asked the Minister of Transport whether he received a telegram from the hon. Member for Kettering on 2nd October, 1919; is he aware that such has been ignored; and can he state the reason why?

Sir E. GEDDES

I am informed that the telegram referred to, and which related to the withholding of pay by the railway companies, was received from the hon. Member. If in the burden of the work thrown upon the Ministry by the strike no acknowledgment was sent, I much regret the omission.
