BRITAIN’S FOOD
EMPIRE PRODUCTION
TO REPLACE FOREIGN
DESIRE OF THE GOVERNMENT
BY CABLE—PRESS ASSOCIATION—COPYRIGHT, (Received Julv 3, 10.30 a.m.) LONDON, July 2. The Prime Minister (Mr Stanley Baldwin) addressed 30,000 Conservatives, including delegates from every constituency between Bristol and Penzance. He devoted his speech mainly to agriculture. He insisted on the £1.000,000 grant to help the production of Empire foodstuffs and to enable Empire goods to replace foreign. “It is our desire and intention that the largest possible proportion of the, importations shall come from the Dominions, not from foreign countries. We do not desire to displace a pound of our own stuff, but every increase in the Dominions’ stock to Britain means more settlers, therefor© more purchasers for our goods and better trade at home.”-—A. and N.Z. Assn.
