Dockers' "Go Slow" Movement

49.

 Sir Waldron Smithers 
asked the Minister of Food how much food supplies  were rendered unfit for human consumption owing to the "go slow" at the docks and elsewhere; and what was its value.

The Minister of Food (Sir Benjamin Smith)
If, as I assume, the hon. Member refers to the "go slow" movement at the London Docks, which began at the end of May and lasted until the middle of August, the answer is "None."

Sir W. Smithers
Will the right hon. Gentleman look at the Question again? It refers to the London Docks and elsewhere.

Sir B. Smith
There was no "elsewhere" under those circumstances.
