HC Deb 25 February 1946 vol 419 c1546
30. Sir John Mellor

asked the President of the Board of Trade whether he will authorise quartermasters to issue permits to soldiers to buy pyjamas in the same way as for handkerchiefs.

Sir S. Cripps

With the present shortage of supplies, it is not possible to make this concession.

Sir J. Mellor

Are not soldiers as much entitled to wear pyjamas as anybody else?

Sir S. Cripps

Certainly.
