Mr. CASSELS

asked the President of the Board of Trade how much glue was imported from Russia during the last 12 months for which statistics are available; and how the market price of this commodity compares with that of glue manufactured in this country?

Dr. BURGIN:

The total imports into the United Kingdom of glue and size registered during the 12 months ended 31st January, 1933, as consigned from the Soviet Union, amounted to 47,120 cwts., of a declared value of £48,176. Market quotations for Russian glue, as such, are not available.
