§ 26. Mr. SHEPPERSONasked the Financial Secretary to the War Office whether, in inviting tenders for the supply of wheat flour, his Department stipulates that a percentage of English wheat shall be used; and, if so, what are the terms of the stipulation?
§ Mr. GWYNNENo stipulation is at present included in the War Department's specification for flour to the effect that a percentage of English wheat is to be used I will, however, make inquiries on the subject. There is, of course, nothing to preclude the use of English wheat.
