§ Mr. MYERSasked the Secretary of State for War whether he has received any report from General Haking concerning the recent riots at Danzig; whether he can confirm the statement that no British soldiers were arrested for 50W refusing to unload cargo; and whether the troops in Danzig will be employed to break any strikes which may occur in this town?
§ Mr. CHURCHILLYes, Sir; a report has been received from General Haking, in which he states that only voluntary military labour has been employed, and that the soldier volunteers worked well and willingly. No report has been received of any arrests in this connection. The answer to the last portion of the question is that it entirely depends upon the nature of the strike. Troops would not be employed in industrial disputes between employers and workmen.
