asked the Minister of Information whether he is aware that people in Great Britain are receiving from American friends parcels of food, including unrationed articles; and whether he will draw the attention of the London correspondents of American newspapers to the plentifulness of food in this country?

Yes, Sir, I am aware of this practical expression of sympathy on the part of American friends. American Press correspondents in London know the true position, and have been encouraged specially to report it to their papers, in order to correct any misunderstanding that exists.
