Colonel YATE

asked the President of the Board of Trade what increase has been effected in the working of inland canals since the Armistice and how far canal traffic has been able to ease the congestion on the railways?

Mr. BRIDGEMAN

I am writing to my hon. and gallant Friend as to this matter, as a number of figures are involved.
