HC Deb 11 March 1930 vol 236 cc1132-3W
Sir K. WOOD

asked the Secretary of State for War what was the number of men employed at the Royal Dockyard at Woolwich and the average weekly wages, including overtime, earned by each of them during the month preceding the day on which the present Government assumed office, and the average weekly wages, including overtime, earned by each of them during the month of January, 1930?

Mr. SHAW

The following statement gives the information:

nection with the intercession services for victims of religious persecution in Russia have now been withdrawn and the chaplains reinstated?

Mr. SHAW

Only one such resignation has reached the War Office, and that was from a chaplain on the reserve of officers. I am arranging that this resignation shall not be accepted until the chaplain in question has had time to consider the precise interpretation of the recent instructions.
