48. Colonel HOWARD-BURY

asked the Postmaster-General whether, in view of the 50 per cent. increase in the cost of inland telegrams in the Irish Free State, he is going to increase the cost of telegrams between this country and the Irish Free State?

Sir W. MITCHELL-THOMSON

This matter is under consideration, but I can say nothing further at present.

Colonel HOWARD-BURY

Does the right hon. Gentleman propose to increase the charges?

Sir W. MITCHELL-THOMSON

The matter is under consideration, but I can say nothing further at the moment.
