§ 14. Mr. John Lewisasked the President of the Board of Trade if he will state his policy in regard to the provision of permits to acquire materials required by exhibitors at trade fairs.
§ Sir S. CrippsThe policy of this matter must depend on the supplies of the material available. In the case of timber and plywood, owing to the very serious shortage, supplies are normally being released only on a very restricted basis for exhibitions of a national character sponsored by the Government, such as the British Industries Fair.
