Building must be reorganised ass public service under public ownership, said Mr. John Leonard, President of the Amalganmted Union of Building Trade Workers, when opening his union's annual conference in Scarborough, last week. He added that the building supply industries should also be nationalised because "they have failed the nation and in their present state are likely to continue doing so." Their inability to produce enough materials for a full year's work during last year's good weather was fantastic. Moreover, Bricks, cement, plaster board, copper.piping were all in short supply.
