Mr John Burnett
, Aberdeen North
asked the President of the Board of Trade whether he is aware that prices are being quoted for Indian kerb at 2s. 2d. per running foot as against the home price of 3s. 6d. per running foot; and whether, in view of the fact that the earnings of Indian quarry-workers amount to from 2s. to 3s. 6d. per day, he will consider measures for the restriction of Indian kerb?
