Sir Patrick Hannon: ...Gentleman also to take into sympathetic consideration a project of profound importance to us in the Midlands. He has had it before him. I refer to the project for improving canal navigation between Worcester and Birmingham. Birmingham stands to-day, in the front rank of the intelligence of the whole world. I venture to suggest to the right hon. Gentleman that if he would have a competent...
Mr Robert Alstead: ...the hon. Member concludes, may I just tell the Committee of a case that has come to my notice this very day? A man in a very large way of business in the fruit-growing industry in the county of Worcester approached the Advisory Committee with a scheme for the resuscitation of a disused brickyard. In the City of Worcester bricks are needed, but this scheme has been turned down by the...
Oral Answers to Questions — Houses, Worcester (War Office Occupation).
Sir Patrick Hannon: ...is one of the greatest commercial communities in this nation, and in Birmingham we desire to develop, if we possibly can, the enlargement of our water transport facilities between Birmingham and Worcester. Hon. Members of this House know that we have had a series of Commissions sitting on water transport for years past, and of all the futile and hopeless reports which have been prepared by...
Professor Sir Charles Oman: ...candidates were thus fined? None. Which looks like the national party—the party which can secure a large following everywhere, or that which, when it shows its head in Aston, the Hartlepools, Worcester, Darwen, Hornsey, Wells, the Isle of Wight, Barnstaple and many other places, receives the votes of less than one-eighth of the electorate? It seems to me that any claim that the...

Mr William Joynson-Hicks: ...present undertake to reopen the settlement embodied in the 1919 Ald Age Pension Act. In reply to the second part, I would refer my hon. and gallant Friend to the reply given to the hon. Member for Worcester on the 28th June.
Mr John Whitley: With reference to this Clause, there are two Amendments which more or less deal with the same point. The first one in the name of the hon. Member for Worcester (Mr. Fairbairn) is not in the correct Parliamentary form, and that is why I pass it over, and call the second one. The hon. Member for Worcester can state his case on the second one.
Mr Charles Darbishire: ...is the sense of saying these are temporary duties? Why does not the Chancellor of the Exchequer be a man and come out and say that he intends them to be permanent? He talked about the old lady of Worcester. Unless he can give us a straight lead on this question, that the Government is not out for Protection, the tenure of those benches by the Government will be very permanent for a short...
...real pleasure. I disagree with much that he has done; I agree with a good deal of what he has done. I disagree with a good deal of what he has said; I agree with a good deal of what he has said. At Worcester, just before the Election, he made a statement which was extraordinarily true, and of which I venture to remind him. He said: One thing that stood out amongst the hundred and one...
Mr Richard Fairbairn: ...may be a warning to them of what will happen to them in the country if they do not remember their responsibilities, having regard to the history of the past four years. It is because the people of Worcester were dissatisfied with the performances of the Government that they have made a change in their representation, after 37 years. I claim no merit for myself. What I have noticed in this...

Mr. MURRAY: Will the right hon. Gentleman read the letter of the hon. Member for Worcester (Sir E. Goulding) which appeared in the "Morning Post" and the "Times" this morning?
Mr Leslie Scott: ...is. It has been quite clearly decided for many years, and is undoubtedly the law, that travelling expenses cannot be deducted. There was the case of a solicitor who carried on his profession at Worcester, and, on certain days of the week, had to go to a neighbouring town some distance away, where he was clerk to the Justices, and he was told that those travelling expenses could not be...
