§ Major J. Morrisonasked the President of the Board of Trade what are the total monthly imports of strawboard into this country from Europe at the present time; and what is the monthly production in this country.
§ Sir S. CrippsNo strawboard is being imported into this country at present. Home production of board made wholly or mainly of straw is relatively very small, but there is a board made of waste paper which is referred to as strawboard or chipboard, the production of which is now about 20,000 tons per month.
