§ MR. HAROLD COX (Preston)I beg to ask the Prime Minister whether in any proposals that His Majesty's Government may make for dealing with the problem of the unemployed they will take care that men and women now in employment are not thrown out of employment by the diminution, through taxation, of funds now spent by private persons in giving employment to the wage-earning classes.
§ THE PRIME MINISTER AND FIRST LORD OF THE TREASURY (Sir H. CAMPBELL-BANNERMAN,) Stirling BurghsMy hon. friend's Question is rather in the nature of a friendly admonition than an ordinary interrogation; but I may tell him that we are quite alive to the importance of the point to which he directs our attention.
