§ Sir B. CHADWICKasked the President of the Board of Trade whether any allied nation besides our own has any system of grant, pension, or allowance in respect to loss of property or injuries to health caused to the men in its mercantile marine during the War by operations in the War zones; and, if so, whether he will furnish the details?
Mr. WEBBI regret that I have no information as to any War compensation schemes in force in allied countries for the mercantile marine.
