HC Deb 15 December 1925 vol 189 cc1228-9W
Mr. SNELL

asked the Postmaster-General if he is aware that it is the practice of the General Post Office to cancel stamps on letters with the words "British Goods are Best," regardless of whether the letters are addressed to people in this country or abroad; and whether he will consider the advisability of omitting this form of advertisement from those letters that are being sent to addresses in foreign countries?

Sir W. MITCHELL-THOMSON

It would not be possible to discriminate between inland and foreign letters in this respect without expense and delay to correspondence, which would not, in my opinion, be justified.
