§ Mr. Austin Mitchellasked the Chancellor of the Exchequer if he will publish in the Official Report a table, based on 1929=100, showing the changes between 1918 and 1938 in the money supply, the monetary base, manufacturing output, manufacturing output per employee, retail prices, average weekly wage rates, average weekly earnings and the level of unployment.
§ Sir Geoffrey Howeasked To gather together all these series, many of which are not available from official sources, would entail a disproportionate cost, but I refer the hon. Member to "National Income, Expenditure and Output of the United Kingdom" 1855–1965 by C. H. Feinstein and to "Abstract of British Historical Statistics" by G. R. Mitchell and P. Deane, where some of the information he seeks is shown.
