§ 67. Mr. Haireasked the President of the Board of Trade if he is aware of the acute shortage of aprons for woodworkers in the Wycombe area; and if he will take steps to increase the supply.
§ Mr. J. EdwardsI am aware of this need for woodworkers' aprons, but all types of aprons are scarce due to inadequate supplies of cloth. Efforts are being made to increase overall cloth production, but the demands of the export market must continue to take precedence.
