MEAT FOR BRITAIN
Sir,—ln the light of the history of the last 30 years, the bar geld screwed front meat-hungry Britain by our producers’ agent lobks a bit hard. When" these now prosperous growers face a war they become very patriotic. They give money away: they give their sons, and other people’s sons, to England, but they do not forget to ask for naval protection in case the intruder should grab their lands and puncture their sacrosanct hides. In these prosperous times, despite the uneasy ’‘peace,” a more fitting gesture of patriotism and Empire spirit would be the gift of six months’ supply to the grand people who almost forget what this delectable commodity tastes like.—Yours, etc., SAMUEL SMITH. October 3, 1952.
