I Bracken Critical 0f Bacon Agreement

OTTAWA. Dec. 1—(CP)—Jonn iBrscken, National Progressive Con- servative Leader. said in a stato- inent today that the Canadian peo- ple face "shame" by forcing the United Kingdom into a reduction of their bacon ration from four to three ounces weekly. (Under e new auseement with the United Kingdom, Canada will supply not iesg than 50,000,000 pounds of bacon annually in the next two years, compared with 675,000,000 pounds being provided in the present calendar year. (Agriculture Minister Gardiner said at Regina last niizht that in light of advice received from British authorities Canada would not be justified in urging Canad- ian farmers to continue to produce hogs to the level oi last war until the end of the war. “Canadian farmers and hog pro- ducers in particular will not soon forget the disservice of the pre- sent federal govwnmenUs admin- istration of agricultural politics." said Mr. Bracken. His statement said: "The Canadian people as a whole will likewise not be plcosed with the shame we face in forcing the people of Britain into a reduction of their bacon ration from four to three ounces weekly. .
