HC Deb 15 March 1944 vol 398 c247W
Mr. Lipson

asked the President of the Board of Trade if, where local supplies of alarm clocks make it possible, he will allow permits for their purchase to be extended to workers who rise at 6 a.m.

Captain Waterhouse

No, Sir. The number of permits already issued for distribution to workers rising between midnight and 5 a.m. covers all the clocks imported.
