HC Deb 10 August 1914 vol 65 c2267W
Mr. C. BATHURST

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer if he will make it clear through the Press for the information of those who do not understand technical expressions, such as legal tender, that the new Government bank notes for £1 and 10s., as well as postal orders issued by the banks, will be just as negotiable and just as valuable for every-day trading purposes as the coin which they represent?

Mr. LLOYD GEORGE

Notices to this effect have been posted up in post offices throughout the United Kingdom.
