HC Deb 15 March 1944 vol 398 c248W
Lieut.-Commander Tufnell

asked the President of the Board of Trade whether in view of the shortage of blankets and bedlinen in Cambridge, he will add this town to the list of those to which extra supplies are being sent.

Mr. Dalton

From a special investigation which has been made in Cambridge, I find that recent supplies to that town have, on the whole, been above the average per head of population for the country. Supplies are bound to remain short, and I regret that I should not be justified in directing additional supplies to Cambridge.
