SOVIET AND SWINE
PLANS FOR PIG BREEDING
STYES IF LENINGRAD
LONDON, 11th August.
"The Times" Riga correspondent states that under the watchword. "Faces to the Swine," the Soviet leaders have appoaled to trade unions and Communist organisations not to forget the pigs.
The leaders deplore the fact that people are "inclined to make niorry. when pigs are mentioned, but the masses must be made to understand that the meat front can only bo rescued by pigs, not rabbits. The pig must be given the place of honour immediately behind tho highest leaders of party."
The appeal points out that the party; has ■worked out plans for breeding swine, not only in the country, but in. tho big towns, where they may serve as auxiliary scavengers, devouring the waste from hospitals, restaurants, prisons, and barracks. Styes already have been opened in the centre of Leningrad.
