Mr. Hiǵǵsasked the President of the Board of Trade whether, in view of the shortage of towels in industrial establishments, he will consider modifying Order, 1453 of 1942, so that electric hand-driers can again be manufactured?
§ Mr. DaltonNo, Sir. I have already made special arrangements for the provision of towels to factories and I regret that I could not justify, in present circumstances, the diversion of scarce labour and materials to the manufacture of electric hand-driers.
