NOT WORTH SUPPORT
Report on British Beet Sugar Industry London, April it). The Sugar Committee, in a majority report, signed by Mr. Wilfred Green and Sir Kenneth Lee. concludes that the advantages of the beet sugar industry are insufficient to justify a recommendation to continue the expenditure of about £7.000.000 annually on an industry which has no reasonable prospect of ever being self-supporting. A minority report, signed by Mr. Cyril Lloyd, took the opposite view. The majority report, however, detailed a plan for reorganisation desirable. if it was decided to continue State support, tn Ihe event of discontinuance. they propose that existing sugar beet growers lie compensated by cash payments on a descending scale for three years.
