§ Captain Kerbyasked the President of the Board of Trade if he is aware that nylon shirts on sale at one of the biggest chain-stores in this country are being offered as Empire goods from Hong Kong, whereas in fact they are made from fabric manufactured in Japan; and what action he intends taking to put a stop to this deception.
§ Sir D. EcclesI have no evidence of this. If nylon shirts are being so offered, it would in the last resort be for a court to decide whether any infringement of 141W the Merchandise Marks Act has taken place. Any person may bring an action under the Act.
