HC Deb 27 February 1945 vol 408 c1251W
Mr. N. Bower

asked the President of the Board of Trade if he is aware of the present shortage of men's handkerchiefs; and whether, in view of the fact that this shortage is dangerous to health and causes much discomfort, he will take steps to alleviate it.

Mr. Dalton

Yes, Sir; and I am glad to say that I have been able to arrange for some additional cloth to be made available for manufacture into handkerchiefs.
