Mr. W., Thorte (Lab., Plaistow): Has an apology been sent to the men- in question?
Mr. Churchill: No, sir.
Mr. Clynes (Lab,, Platting): WU!} any recompense be given to these men.?
Mr. Churchill: I am not prepared. to give any undertaking of that kind; but I shall convey to these men my regret that, after having returned from hard service abroad, they should have met with so uncere monious and chilling a welcome on arrival in their native land.
Mr. Rose (Lab., Aberdeen, N.}: Have steps been taken, to punish the people who made this mistake?
Mr. Churchill: I do not know how the bon. member can at one momenti be so full of sympathy with the three. men and so full of malevolence against those who made the mistake.
Liest-Commander Kenworthy : {{¦ they were escaped prisoners from Russia what reason was there for arresting thera?
Me. Churchill: If they had been. described as escaped prisoners of war, who had escaped from the enemy, no doubt the mistake would not have arisen; but they were described as "escaped prisoners," and that is how the error arose.
Mr. Devlin (Nar., Fälls): Did not the mistake arise from the belief that these men were from Ireland? (Laughter.)
