§ Captain PLUGGEasked the Secretary of State for War whether his attention has been called to the court-martial of a guardsman for refusing to shave off his moustache; whether he will state under what Army regulations this was done; and how the regulations are administered for the various regiments of the Army?
§ Mr. KIRKWOODasked the Secretary of State for War whether his attention has been called to the court-martial at Windsor on Guardsman Arthur Leslie Bursell, who was charged with refusing to shave off his moustache; and whether, as this was not a lawful command, he will direct that the finding of the court-martial be quashed?
§ Sir V. WARRENDERMy attention has been drawn to this case. The matter is stillsub judice, but if the hon. Members will repeat their questions in a week's time, I hope then to be in a position to give them an answer.
