“PLAIN WARNING”
PRIVATE_OWNERS BRITISH INDUSTRIES OUTPUT OR STATE RULE (9 a.m.) LONDON. April 7. The Minister of Fuel. Mr. F. Shutwell. after reviewing the Government’s nationalisation and social legislation, in a speech to the Yorkshire Labour Regional Council at Leeds, said: "There is much more to come and. by the end of the present Parliament, we will have then achieved a bloodless revolution of our national affairs.”
"We don’t want to nationalise every industry." he said, "but they had better be warned the people of Britain are in no mood to stand any nonsense from private ownership. If they cannot deliver the goods the Government will do so. This is a plain warning.
“The attitude that everything must be left .to private enterprise is just bumkum . There should be no department of public activity, whether national or local, in which Labour has no.t got a finger in the pie. We must be in everything." "The doctors under the National Health Bill would not be civil servants. Academic medicine would be entirely removed from State interference,” said the Minister of Health, Mr. Aneurin Bevan. in 'a speech. The bill had been better received than was expected but there had been wild statements from men old enough to be more sensible. The doctors were difficult to handle. They did not bring to bear the same sagacity to their profession as to their patients.
