§ Colonel BURTONasked the President of the Board of Trade the price at which French milled flour is being sold in this country at per sack of 280 lbs. and the price it is being sold in France, having regard to the present rate of exchange?
§ Mr. RUNCIMANThe price of French flour in London on 7th November was about 19s. 9d. per sack of 280 lbs. including duty and quota payments. Similar flour was, I understand, quoted in Paris on the same date at 185 francs per 100 kilos which would be equivalent to 235 francs or about 62s. per sack of 280 lbs. at the current rate of exchange.
