Army estimates debate Army estimates debate Updated: March 18, 2021 00:15 IST Updated: Share Article AAA [London, March 15] The Army estimates debate produced a vigorous protest against the idea that tanks could be used as the substitute for cavalry. General Seely declared that such an idea was inconsistent with the lessons of war. General Townshend said he thought the tank was a thing of the past. Sir A. Williamson replying to the points raised in the debate said he did not think a great section of the community contemplated with equanimity an expenditure of seven millions annually on Palestine. That was a question with which Mr. Churchill had gone out to deal. Sir A. Williamson said he hoped we should not again have to face sums of this kind in the Army Estimates. Sir Worthington Evans declared that France had reduced her cavalry by twice as much as we proposed to do. The Motion for reduction was rejected by 168 votes to 75 and the vote was adopted.
