Typewriters
In 1926 the Estimates Committee went into the question of the supply of British Typewriters for the Public Service. Your Committee have pursued this inquiry and are gratified to learn that only British Typewriters are now purchased for general use; that the supply has been fully equal to the demand, and that both in price and quality they are fully equal to the imported article.
