MONEY FOR ARMAMENTS
HOW MUCH MORE?
'PERFECTLY PLAIN QUESTION'
(British Official Wireless.)
(Received November A 11.30 a.m.)
RUGBY, November 2.
Sir Austen Chamberlain, in an address to the electors of West Birmingham, said that in the difficult and anxious international situation the Government had increased British influence and in home affairs had -restored the country's finances,' created confidence, and given necessary protection to industry in home markets.
Mr. Herbert Minister of Transport in the last Labour Government, in a speech in South Hackney last night, put a "perfectly plain" question to Mr. Chamberlain: —"How much more money does he propose to spend on armaments?" The Government must know what they wanted, and the taxpayers should be told what they were being asked to approve.
