HC Deb 22 November 1920 vol 135 c76W
Colonel BURGOYNE

asked the President of the Board of Education whether his attention has been called to a pamphlet entitled, Hygiene of Food and Drink, issued by the Board of Education; whether it is by his instructions that this piece of teetotal propaganda has been printed and circulated; and under what powers the distribution has been made at the public expense?
