WOMEN'S STOCKINGS
RATIONING PLAN?
60,000 PAIRS A WEEK (By Telegraph.—Parliamentary Reporter.) WELLINGTON, this day. Suggestions that some rationing method be adopted so that the limited supply of women's stockings should be more fairly distributed were brought to the attention of the acting-Prime Minister, the Hon. W. Nash, to-day. Mr. Nash replied that the matter of securing some more fair and equitable way for everyone to have reasonable access to existing stocks is under the Government's consideration. "Every week." he added. "60.000 pairs of silk stockings made in .New Zealand are delivered to traders, and arrangements are under way to enable a further 50,000 dozen pairs to be manufactured in the Dominion annually." .
