Scope and content
PP/19/2/3/11
Clarke makes a number of points about the role of the best craftsmen in the furniture industry. He questions whether the employers' representatives [on the Furniture Working Party] can properly represent the whole industry. Some sections of the industry will not be catered for in the final report as a result. He believes purchase tax will also result in lower standards as designers will sacrifice decoration to keep prices down. Mentions [Herman] Lebus, and encloses a letter he has written to the National Register of Art Designers [PP/19/2/3/11].
