HC Deb 04 November 1909 vol 12 cc2140-1W
Major ANSTRUTHER-GRAY

asked the Secretary of State for War whether his advisers are satisfied that there is an ample supply of petrol in the country to secure the full advantages of motor traffic in case of war?

Mr. HALDANE

As I have informed the hon. and gallant Member on a previous occasion, it is anticipated that the stocks of petrol ordinarily maintained in this country would be ample for meeting the Army requirements of that article for war purposes.
