Sir W. Smithers
asked the President of the Board of Trade in view of the shortage of paper supplies, how a firm was able to issue booklets and other forms concerning methods of family limitation, details of which have been sent to him; and if he will withdraw at once further supplies for this purpose.
Mr. Belcher
As was stated in reply to the hon. Member for Solihull (Mr. M. Lindsay) on 17th July last, under the provisions of the Paper Control Orders any person may gratuitously distribute a limited quantity of paper for advertising circulars. According to the records of the Paper Control no paper has been specifically licensed for the documents to which the hon. Member refers.
