§ 60. Commander Nobleasked the President of the Board of Trade whether his attention has beep drawn to the shortage of gaberdine raincoats for children, which may prevent many of them from attending school regularly in the coming winter.
§ Sir S. CrippsYes. The manufacturers have been specially asked to increase their production of children's raincoats, even at the expense of adult garments; the shortage is due to the scarcity of suitable cloth.
