Britain's Agricultural Resources
"L.G." URGES NEED FOR ORGANIZATION "LONDON, Jan 26 (Reuter)~. "Every smp of land ought to be conscripted хл the fight for freedom," declared Mr. Lloyd George, in the course of a debate in the House of Commons, on agriculture, in the course of which Mr. W. S. Morrison, Minister for Food. Justified the Government's policy in concentrating on the storage of wheat and stated that the supplies of feeding-stuffs for animals had now been raised to sixty-six percent of dormal re- quirements.
He added, that he did not think it reasonable to expect. that full pre-war supplies of feeding- stuffs could be maintained in wartime and urged the utmost economy Overseas In feeding- stuffs.
"L. G.'S" APPEAL Mr. Lloyd George, declaring that British agriculture and the carrying capacity of British ships had largely declined compared with 1914. urged the Government to organise its resources on the assumption that it was going to be a very long struggle.
He added that if it was a short. one. we should gain by the sav- ing for two or three years.

SPECIAL SIGNIFICANCE
The increase WES sold to be specially significant, as most of China's foreign trade in 1939 was carried on overland routes, as a result of Japan's blockade, and oc- cupation of coastal ports,
The figures for 1939, it was stressed, do not include Free China's exports to "Hongkong and Haiphong, a large portion of which was later sent to the United States.
