Outhwaitc, amid uproar, asked what was the proportionate contribution of each of the Allies to the armies in tho field. . , , Sir Edward Carson raised the point whether the question was calculated lo cause 1 friction among tho Allies. The Speaker said he thought it was; but he was not entrusted with the censorship. •. Mr. Lloyd George declined to give the information, because it was inadvisable. A great scene of uproar-fol-lowed, with shouts of "We don't want pro-Germans!" Mr. Outhwaite attempted to put the question, and. eventually the Speaker demanded notice of the question, which alleged that the figures of the British and Russian armies had been divulged.
