LABOUR'S ATTITUDE
LIMITATION A FAILURE
STIMULATION OF DEMANDTHE REAL AIM
<Received February 19, 1 p.m.)
' ■: ' LONDON, February 18. .In, the: House of Commons the Rt! Hon. C. Addison (Lab.), following Major Elliot, said that Labour did riot object to producers getting a fair price -for their products, but the vote itself showed that the idea of bringing* this about by a limitation of supplies had broken down. The real aim should be a stimulation of demand., Any scheme for the stabilisation of production should be associated with the control of distribution arid prices through a Government import board which would safeguard the consumer. An arbitrary restriction of supplies was bound to irritate the Dominions, and had already proved futile.
