I The Congress next considered the rjues- tion of the cost of living. t Mr. Purcell (Furnishing Trades) moved a. long resolution protesting against the f continued indifference of the Govern- .,10: ment to abnormal profiteering, and deelar- iiig that this was the primary cause of in- <1 us trial unrest. It dein a nded that the Government should take effective control of raw Jiwterials required for the manufacture I of vital commodities," and went on to s nflinn the decision of previous Congresses that the complete national ownership and (ontrul cf land, mines, minerals, railways j is the only effective method of securing adequate protection against the operation ,I. ci monopolies. This was soeonded by Mr. Ben Turner, U and then Mr. Hodges submitted a long M "memorandum from the Miners' Feclera- f 1iqn, dealing with certain proposals for the immediate reduction of the cost of :t living, and proposed as an addition to the t resolution that the Parliamentary Com- mittee be instructed to approach the Government and demand that it accept the remedial measures contained in the .:¡. lUl\illOrandulU.
