HC Deb 23 July 1946 vol 425 c317W
108. Sir J. Lucas

asked the Secretary of State for War the approximate numbers or percentage of miners and farmers or farm workers, respectively, in General Anders' Army, or if he will take the necessary steps to ascertain these figures.

Mr. Lawson

A census is being taken, but the figures for the whole Army will not be available for some little time. I understand that there are considerable numbers of agriculturists and comparatively few miners.
