§ Mr. Biggs-Davisonasked the President of the Board of Trade what estimate has been made of the cost to the country of the strike of tally clerks in the Port of London.
§ Mr. MaudlingSome of the fall in exports in October which can be attributed to the tally clerks' strike, was made good in November. Some export business must have been lost altogether, but it is impossible to estimate how much. Nor is it possible to measure the damage done to the good will our exports enjoy in overseas markets by late delivery of goods.
