AGRICULTURE IN BRITAIN
, LIBERALS CEKSURE GOVERNMENT BOLD MEASURES ESSENTIAL. Press Association— By Telegraph—Copyright. LONDON, December 20. (Received December 21, at 12.15 p.m.) Sir A. H. Sinclair, in the House of Commons, •in submitting the Liberal Party’s motion deploring the Government’s failure to restore agriculture, expressed the opinion that Sir Charles Bledisloe (Parliamentary Secretary to the Ministry of Agriculture) was suffering from paralysis and the insidious disease of complacency. Britain had reached the smallest arable area in its agricultural history, with 400,000 fewer land workers than half a century ago. Temporary assistance here and there was useless. Bold, comprehensive measures were essential. —A. and N.Z. and ‘ Sun ’ Cable.
