Dr. Segal
asked the Postmaster-General for what reasons he is unwilling to sanction an issue of air mail stamps.
Mr. Wilfred Paling
Special air mail stamps do not offer any advantage in the treatment of air mail correspondence which would balance the additional work and expense of producing, stocking and issuing them.
Dr. Segal
Has the right hon. Gentleman any means of assessing the loss in dollars to this country arising out of his decision?
Mr. Paling
No, Sir.
