HC Deb 08 March 1920 vol 126 c927W
Mr. W. THORNE

asked the Secretary of State for War if he can now sec his way clear to release the military prisoners who deserted after the Armistice; and if he will consider whether the men have suffered sufficiently through being deprived of their gratuities?

Mr. CHURCHILL

I would refer the hon. Member to my reply on the 18th February to the hon. Member for Silver-town (Mr. J. Jones).
