HC Deb 27 March 1946 vol 421 c37W
118. Flight-Lieutenant Beswick

asked the Minister of Fuel and Power whether he will consider reproducing the portrait of a miner credited with moving 28 tons of coal within one shift as a poster and symbol of the cheerful industry of the British miner and an inspiration to all engaged in the present production drive.

Mr. Shinwell:

I appreciate my hon. and gallant Friend's suggestion. Officers in my Department are already considering what use can be made of the portrait, and I understand that the "Daily Mirror" has agreed that we may use the picture as we may desire.
