asked the President of the Board of Trade if his attention has been called to the observation of a county court judge in regard to the cash value of clothing coupons; and if he will investigate the position with a view to devising measures to prevent any selling of these coupons.

I have seen the report in the newspapers. The Board of Trade enforcement officers have the problem of illegal buying and selling of coupons always before them and I do not think any extra measures are called for.
