§ 46. Mr. SAKLATVALAasked the Prime Minister whether, in view of the growing distress in mining areas and the inadequacy of the help so far from private subscriptions, he will be prepared to ask the House for a substantial Treasury grant before the Christmas adjournment?
§ The PRIME MINISTERI can at present add nothing to the answer which I gave yesterday in reply to question3 on this subject, to which I would refer the hon. Member.
§ Mr. SAKLATVALADoes the right hon. Gentleman realise that up to now the public funds have reached a very paltry figure compared with the Russian workers' contribution of £1,000,000 two years ago?
