HC Deb 11 August 1919 vol 119 cc860-1
63. Mr. HOUSTON

asked the Prime Minister whether, seeing that our national existence depends upon our export trade, he will state what the Government is doing or is going to do, by propaganda or otherwise, to bring this fact home to the people of this country with a view to obtaining greater output?

Mr. BRIDGEMAN

I have been asked to reply. The Government fully realise the importance of increasing output in every direction, and Ministers have repeatedly emphasised the necessity for this. The Government would welcome any help from hon. Members in bringing the urgency of the matter home to their constituents.

Mr. HOUSTON

But what are the Government going to do? My hon. Friend has not answered my question.

Mr. MacVEAGH

Wait and see !
