Captain Charles Ainsworth Borough of Bury.
Lieutenant-Colonel the honourable W. E. Guinness, County of West Suffolk (Bury St. Edmunds Division).
Mr James Lowther: Does the hon. and gallant Member for Bury St. Edmunds agree?
Colonel Sir Vivian Henderson: ...staff, that a great many of the trivial mistakes which occur at present and which cause a lot of unnecessary trouble and dissatisfaction would disappear altogether. The hon. and gallant Member for Bury St. Edmunds, earlier in the course of the Debate to-day, made a statement with regard to gratuities paid to Regular officers. I have been a Regular officer, though I am not one at the...
Mr Henry Croft: ...of this country to place in the field in order to see this thing through. I believe you can only kill Conscription, which has been the reason of all recent wars, by being able to dig a grave to bury it in. You cannot dig that grave unless you have the military power to enforce the end of Conscription upon the Central Powers. Therefore, I hope the Labour party will very seriously consider...
Sir Arthur Benn: ...those dear old roads of England, those shaded roads, so dusty in summer and so muddy in winter, would not stand the traffic, and that we should have to have modern roads. We were told by General Maybury and others that the cost of the modern roads was so much higher than that of the old roads, and the cost, of maintenance would be so much greater, that it would be difficult to know how the...
Sir Robert Clough: ...of the discussion to-day, and, while I have been immensely impressed with almost everything said, the principal object of my rising is to support the plea put forward by the hon. Member for Dews-bury (Lieutenant-Colonel Pickering) and the hon. Member for Huddersfield (Sir C. Sykes) for a lessening of the restrictions on trade. Before I do that, may I say how much I appreciate and would...
Mr Stanley Holmes: The hon. Member for Bury St. Edmunds (Lieutenant-Colonel Guinness) said the other night that he seized the opportunity of speaking because it gave him great pleasure for once to be able to agree with the hon. Member for Newcastle-under-Lyme (Colonel Wedgwood). It gives me great pleasure now to find myself even for once on the same side as the right hon. Gentleman the Member for the City of...
Mr William Redmond: ...is heard, "Hands off Ulster!" These are the very words that fell from the mouth of the hon. Gentleman who seconded this Amendment He turned round to the hon. and gallant Gen- tleman the Member for Bury St. Edmunds—I took his words down—and said, "Leave out Ulster." That is the very kernel of the opposition to this Bill by Members from the North of Ireland. Let the minority in the South...
Mr. HARMSWORTH: I would refer the hon. and gallant Member to the answer returned to the hon. and gallant Member for Bury St. Edmunds on 24th March, to which I have nothing to add.
Mr Henry Croft: ...must have security in addition to this, and we submit that coal and potash provide that security. The right hon. Gentleman, the other night, laughed at the hon. and gallant Gentleman the Member for Bury St. Edmunds who had quoted some figures with regard to German coal and potash. But the right hon. Gentleman should remember that these were German estimates which were generally accepted in...
Mr Joseph Devlin: ...do about the affairs of Timbuctoo. I am glad to say that when I make a special appeal for the separate and distinct treatment of Ireland I can call as eloquent witness to this view, the Member for Bury-St.-Edmunds (Lieutenant-Colonel W. Guinness), who said the other night: Ireland differs from England in race, in temperament, and in social organisation, and that difference must be...
Sir J. D. REES: It was said in the course of the Debate that the vote is a privilege granted by the State to the voter. That was said by my hon. and gallant Friend the Member for Bury St. Edmunds (Lieutenant-Colonel W. Guinness) in one of those able and statesmanlike speeches he is in the habit of addressing to the House. That was the only part of his speech with which I disagreed. The vote...
Lieut-Colonel Walter Guinness: ..., on page 23, informs us that there is plenty of food in Russia, that there is plenty of everything in Russia except perhaps coffee, but, as we have heard from other sources, the peasants prefer to bury their food rather than give it to the Bolshevik dictators and thus rivet still more deeply this horrible tyranny on their country. The truth is that, owing to starvation, the Bolsheviks are...
...to get land for a hospital you get it under the Public Health Act, but if it is a hospital for infectious diseases you must get that under the Isolation Hospitals Act. If you want to get land to bury a dead dog in, you have to get that under the Diseases of Animals Act. If it is for a human being who has died in the country, you get that under the Local Government Act of 1894. If he died...
Lieutenant-Colonel GUINNESS: 16. asked the President of the Board of Trade whether he is aware that great inconvenience is caused to the inhabitants of Newmarket and Bury St. Edmunds by the lack of any train down from London after 5.52 p.m.; and whether the Railway Executive Committee will make arrangements for such a train to run and for another special train to be run down to Newmarket and...
Sir Percy Hurd: 21. asked whether special leave granted for such purposes as to bury a soldier's mother is counted as ordinary overseas leave?
Sir Ernest Wild: ...point of view is absurd; but, now that we know their point of view, all we can say is that we cannot argue with them. If it is their view that they want Germans back in this country, and want to bury the hatchet, and—in the words of their great Leader at the Runciman revels the other night—they want to leave no open wounds, that is not arguable. It is not the view of this House, and my...
Colonel Josiah Wedgwood: ...any atrocity stories we have seen during the War told against Germany, but they are almost uniformly based on anonymous representations from Russia. There was the one given by the hon. Member for Bury St. Edmund's (Lieutenant-Colonel Guinness) about the Bolshevik Government employing Chinese executioners who were sawing prisoners into pieces. When I asked him about it he referred me to the...
Sir William Adkins: I only wish to say a word or two on an aspect of the Peace Conference already touched upon by the hon. and gallant Member for Bury St. Edmunds (Lieutenant-Colonel Guinness), who, towards the close of his in- teresting speech, referred to what is, perhaps, the most urgent of international problems—the problem of Poland. The hon. Member went so far as to say that the influence of the Prime...
