SIXPENNY POSTAL ORDERS (NEWSPAPER COMPETITIONS).

HC Deb 18 April 1932 vol 264 c1256W

Mr. L. SMITH

asked the Postmaster-General the reasons for the increase in the sales of sixpenny postal orders to the extent of 9,000,000?

Sir K. WOOD

I am, of course, only able to draw my own conclusion, but I presume that a considerable amount of the increase may be due to the popularity of certain newspaper competitions.
