HC Deb 14 April 1930 vol 237 c2629
45. Mr. ALLEN

asked the Prime Minister whether he proposes to introduce legislation which will so adjust financial and fiscal conditions in this country as to give workers, particularly in the agricultural and textile industries, the opportunity of having their products sold at an economic level?

The PRIME MINISTER (Mr. Ramsay MacDonald)

No legislation has yet been discovered by the wit of man to secure this at any given time and under any conditions.

Mr. ALLEN

May I ask whether it is not the fact that workers cannot have their products sold at an economic level until the currency is brought into real relation with individual productive capacity?
