    Solution:

    From 1793 to 1794, there was a 'Reign of Terror' in France. Robespierre instituted a severe system of command and punishment during this time. Former lords, clergy, activists from other movements, and party members who disapproved of his tactics were all apprehended, imprisoned, and ultimately found guilty by a revolutionary court. If the jury found them guilty, they were executed by guillotine. The Robespierre government approved a bill that imposed a maximum wage and price cap. Meat and bread rations were available. Farmers had to transport their harvest to towns in order to sell it at prices established by the government. Using the more expensive white flour was outlawed.
    Hence the Assertion is false, but the Reason is true.
