asked the Under-Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether, having regard to the present condition of affairs in Russia, he will now release from his duties as acting British vice-consul, Odo Wiskemann, the son of Herr Odo Wiskemann, an unnaturalised German, and give this British-born young fit man an opportunity to volunteer for military service under the British flag?

As already stated, Mr. Wiskemann is assisting in His Majesty's Consulate at Archangel, where the pressure of work does not admit of the release of Mr. Wiskemann from his present duties.
