HC Deb 11 March 1903 vol 119 cc383-4
MR. WEIR (Ross and Cromarty)

I beg to ask the Lord Advocate whether, with a view to encourage the manufacture of homespun tweeds in the Western Highlands, the Secretary for Scotland will con- sider the expediency of having this industry represented at the forthcoming St. Louis Exposition.

*THE LORD ADVOCATE (Mr. A. GRAHAM MURRAY,) Buteshire

The Secretary for Scotland has been in communication with the Scottish Home Industries Association. They do not at present contemplate any such course as suggested by the hon. Member.
