HC Deb 11 June 1920 vol 130 c776W
Sir W. JOYNSON-HICKS

asked the Secretary of State for War whether cable censors and postal censors during the War both wore military uniform and received the same rate of military pay; whether he has decided that Army Order 324, of September, 1919, in reference to increase of pension applies only to cable censors and not to postal censors; and, if so, what is the reason for this discrimination?

Sir A. WILLIAMSON

The postal censors did not receive military, but civil pay. The wearing of uniform was optional.
