NEW BILL ROBS WORKING
MAN OF HIS BACON
Government Accused Of Making Eleventh Commandment
The Government, according to Mr. H. Holdsworth, Liberal member for South Bradford, has produced an eleventh commandment-"Thou shalt not give the people what they want at a price they can afford to pay.”
He was moved to say so'during a debate in the House of Commons last month on the Bacon Industry Bill, which proposes to spend £1,000,000 a year of the taxpayers' money in the next three years in an attempt to put the industry on its feet.
If the price of food for pigs rises beyond a certain point, the taxpayer will make up the difference. If the price of bacon falls beyond a certain point, he will come to the rescue of the farmer in the same way.

At the same time-to keep up prices-imports of bacon аге to be restricted, and power is given to a Development Board to restrict home production as well and to impose fines up to £500.
