§ 71. Commander King-Hallasked the President of the Board of Trade whether members of the British Red Cross Society can be issued with an allowance of coupons enabling them to purchase grey stockings?
§ Mr. DaltonLike other wearers of essential uniforms, members of the British 207 Red Cross Society receive their initial uniform outfit and any necessary replacements coupon-free, in return for the annual surrender of only six to eight coupons. They should, therefore, be well able to provide the coupons necessary for stockings.
§ Commander King-HallIs my right hon. Friend aware that these ladies have to wear grey stockings when in uniform, and that they need at least three pairs a year? Could not a small allowance be made?
§ Mr. DaltonThey really do pretty well. If my hon. and gallant Friend will have a word with me I will satisfy him on that point.
