Mr. RAWLINSON

asked the Secretary of State for War how many hospital ships are now being used for the troops in North Russia; and whether an adequate supply of doctors, nurses, and hospital requirements has now reached our troops?

Mr. CHURCHILL

Two hospital ships are being used to evacuate patients from the military hospitals in North Russia. An adequate supply of doctors and hospital requirements are present at both Archangel and Murmansk. Six British nurses are doing duty in the hospital at Murmansk. There are no British nurses stationed at Archangel.
