C104 COUPON
An extension of the currency of the NlO4 stocking coupon was- urged by Miss HOWARD (L., Christchurch East) in notice of a question to the Minister of Industries and Commerce, Mr. Sullivan. She said in a note to her question that very few fully-fashioned stockings bad been available during the past few months, nnd those that had been available had been sold at such a time that working women were unable to purchase any. Many hundreds of workers still had their last coupon. . She also asked the Minister if he would take up with the manufacturers the making of lisle stockings that were wearable. She said that lisle stockings were mostly worn by the older women and specially old-age pensioners. Lately there had been on the market in Auckland lisle stockings made with a very heavy seam across the top of the toes which made them completely unwearable, thus wasting the material, which she understood was iu short supply.
