HC Deb 18 May 1915 vol 71 c2129
39. Mr. LEACH

asked the President of the Board of Trade if the Government can do anything to prevent the advance in the price of coal in the middle and southern counties of England?

Mr. RUNCIMAN

As I informed my hon. Friend the Member for North-East Lanarkshire on Thursday last, I am conferring with the Midland coalowners on the subject, and they are to meet me again this week.
