§ 19. Mr. SNOWDENasked the President of the Board of Trade if an application by the lower-grade clerks of the Labour Exchanges for a war bonus has been considered and refused; and, if so, will he, in view of the small wages of this class, the extra work they are doing, and the increased cost of living, reconsider the matter?
Mr. RUNCIMANI would refer my hon. Friend to the reply given by me to similar questions by my hon. Friends the Members for Peterborough and East Wolverhampton on the 22nd February.
