HC Deb 03 August 1922 vol 157 c1689W
Mr. BANTON

asked the Secretary of State for War if he will present to the House a correct statement of what was said by the officer commanding-in-chief, Northern Command, relative to the League of Nations, when addressing the boys of St. Peter's School, York, on the 30th of June?

Sir L. WORTHINGTON-EVANS

Yes, Sir; I understand that Sir Ivor Maxse expressed his disagreement, not with the policy embodied in the League of Nations, but with the opinion that there will never be another War, which latter opinion he described as "tosh."
