BREEDING OF PIGS
APPEAL BY THE SOVIET. STIES OPENED IN LENINGRAD. (United Press association.) (By Electric Telegraph —Copyright.) LONDON, August 11, (Received August 11, at 8 p.m.) The Riga correspondent of The Times states that under the watchword “ Faces to the swine,” the Soviet leaders appealed to trade unions and Communist organisations not. to forget the pigs. They deplore the fact that people were “ inclined to make merry when pigs are mentioned, but the masses must be made to understand that the meat front can only be rescued by pigs, not rabbits. The pig must be given a place of honour immediately behind the highest leaders of the party.” The appeal points out that the party had worked out plans for breeding swine not only in the country but in big towns, where they may serve as auxiliary scavengers, devouring waste from hospitals, restaurants, prisons, and barracks. Sties have already been opened in the centre of Leningrad.—Times Cable.
