HC Deb 05 February 1952 vol 495 c106W
74. Mr. Peart

asked the President of the Board of Trade the percentage increase in the price of text books for 1952 as compared with 1951 and 1950.

Mr. H. Strauss

I have no official information on which to base a reply, but I am informed that the cost of text books during 1952 is likely to be substantially greater than in 1950 or 1951.
