asked the Secretary for Mines whether he will state the number of persons, exclusive of the clerical staff and salaried persons, employed in each district of the mining industry in Great Britain for the years 1920 to 1937?

Captain Crookshank

As the reply involves a statistical statement too lengthy for publication in the OFFICIAL REPORT, I am sending a copy to the hon. Member.
