Laborites Attack
Churchill Regime
On Budget Issue
London (U.R) Laborites bit
terly attacked the Churchill
government's new budget
Wednesday for turning Britain
back from socialism toward free
enterprise.
The Socialist press and trade
union leaders loosed the first
blast against the budget intro
duced by Chancellor of the
Exchequer. R. A. Butler in
Commons Tuesday.
Said Unjust Budget
The Daily Herald, organ of
the Labor Party, called it a
"bad . and unjust budget be
cause it ended the late Labor
government's "fair shares, for
all" program in favor of incen
tives for increased production.
Arthur Deakin, chairman of
the 8,000,000-member trades
union congress, charged that
any increased benefits to work
ers would be more than offset by
price increases certain to fol
low a 39 per cent cut in govern
ment food subsidies.
Food Subsidy Cut Sera
Butler announced that the
conservative government in
tends to cut food'subsidies from
$1,148,000,000 to $700,000,000
to reduce the taxation burden
on wage-earners. This will boost
bread prices two cents a loaf,
meat four cents a pound and
cause lesser increases in the
price of butter, bacon, sugar,
cheese and tea.
Tunisia Ministers Ask
