OWN INDUSTRY IMPORTANT
CATTLE BILL DEBATE (United Press Association—By Electric Telegraph Copyright.) Received 2.30 p.m. to-day. LONDON, Afarch 8. Aloving the second reading of the Industries Cattle Bill in tho House of Commons Air Elliott said there was no doubt that but for the assistance provided by the present Act, which was due to expire on Alarch 31, Home cattle producers would already be facing disaster. Britain had a special responsibility towards the meat exporting Dominions, sijuco she remained easily the largest consumer of overseas supplies. No one could accuse Britain of narrow economic nationalism in her meat policy, but she could not neglect the importance of her own livestock industry, which was also an important customer for many other British industries, including shiping used to bring store cattle from Ireland for fattening in England.
