§ 54. Mr. BUTLERasked the Minister of Agriculture whether the Government will safeguard the employment of arable workers by guaranteeing to cereal 1712 farmers the amount of their fixed wages bill on conditions suitable to the present emergency?
§ Dr. ADDISONThe method suggested by the hon. Member is not a practicable way of dealing with this matter.
§ Mr. BUTLERDoes the right hon. Gentleman realise that we have tried in vain to get a policy of fixing prices and, therefore, I suggest a policy of fixing rates of labour?
