§ 37. Lord H. CAVENDISH-BENTINCKasked the Minister of Munitions whether, in view of the general shortage of typewriting machines, he will take steps to put on offer to the public any machines in the possession of the Government in excess of their requirements?
§ Mr. STANLEY BALDWIN (Joint Financial Secretary to the Treasury)The Stationery Office is still purchasing supplies of typewriters to meet the demands of the public service. The stock in hand is too small to admit of an offer to the public of any machines in the possession of the Government should such a policy be contemplated.
