§ 49. Mr. Hannahasked the Parliamentary Secretary to the Ministry of Food whether, in apportioning corn to owners of pigeons, he will see that members of the National Pigeon Service do not get a share which is unfair to the small breeder, but that all who are willing to provide suitable birds for Government use shall receive equal treatment?
Major Lloyd GeorgeI cannot undertake to provide rationed feeding-stuffs for pigeons other than those owned by members of the National Pigeon Service. The constitution of that organisation and the number of birds to be maintained are the concern of the Service Departments.
§ Mr. HannahWill not the Government allow the small men equality of treatment with the more wealthy ones?
