HC Deb 28 May 1936 vol 312 cc2224-5W
Mr. HALL-CAINE

asked the Parliamentary Secretary to the Admiralty whether he will consider reintroducing training in sail for British naval cadets by buying up a few wind-jammers, which could also be used for bringing wheat from Australia to replace the Scandinavian ships at present utilised for that purpose?

Lord STANLEY

No, Sir. It is not the present policy of the Admiralty to reintroduce training in sail.
