Not content, 59. ] HOUSE OF COMMONS, DECEMBER 12, 1740.
RESPECTING OFFICERS ON HALF-PAY.
Mr. SANDYS this day moved for an humble address to his majesty, that, for the future ease of his majesty's subjects, all officers nowsubsisting upon half-pay, etc. Might be employed in the army, andsupported it to the following effect: Sir, though I have often known motions opposed without any justobjections, or at least without any proof of such inconveniencies likelyto arise from them, as were equivalent ...to the advantages which theywould have produced, yet I cannot but confess, that any opposition tothis will be unexpected and surprising; for it is, in my opinion, supported by every law of justice and humanity. If we regard the publickin general, it cannot but produce some alleviation of the nationalexpense; and if we consider the particular persons to whom itimmediately relates, they have certainly a just claim to that regardwhich it is the tendency of this motion to procure them.
To burden with superfluous officers, and unnecessary expenses, a peoplealready overwhelmed with taxes, and overrun with the dependents on thecrown, is, surely, to the highest degree cruel and absurd.
