HOUSING.
PROVIDIN' G MATERIALS BY CABLE PRESS ASSOCIATION—COPYRIGHT Received July 28, 11 - 20 a m ~ • . LONDON, July 27. Ar 1 Hastings (Labour) speaking at U allsend in referring to the Housing : . ' sa ‘ !< d he saw only ou-e wav to get building materials, and that'was for the Minister to fix prices. If manufacturers would not sell at those prices the .Minister must be empowered to take over their works and produce materials at a fair price. A Bill embodying these provisions had been introduced in the Commons. It might surprise many people to know that compensation was not paid under .the Bill for loss of property, and there would he suc-h a fight over the Bill as the House of Commons had never; seen. If passed, the public wouicl see the first letters of Socialism written on the wall, and if rejectsd -th-e Government would probably go to the country. He predicted that the next Parliament would contain 300 Labourites.—Sydney. Sun Cable.
