§ Mr. Albuasked the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry when the Royal Charter of the Anglo-German Foundation for the study of the problems of industrial society was granted; and what was the reason for the delay.
§ Sir G. HoweThe draft charter was approved by Her Majesty in Council on 24th October, and the Royal Charter will be granted shortly.
