HC Deb 31 July 1935 vol 304 c2665
81. Mr. LOGAN

asked the Home Secretary whether gas masks of varying prices are being considered; and how many sizes are contemplated?

Sir J. SIMON

It is contemplated that respirators should be made in a sufficient range of sizes to suit varying requirements, including those of children, and that there should be patterns at different prices according to the length of time for which protection would be needed.

Mr. LOGAN

Does that imply that masks of different kinds will be necessary for different kinds of gases?

Sir J. SIMON

I do not think that will be necessary, but if the hon. Member wishes to pursue that, perhaps he will put a question down.
