IMPORTANT GOVE The Wartime Prices and Trade Regulations (Order in Council P.C, 8528 of November 1, 1941) established basic period maximum prices for goods and designated services. These regulations were passed under the authority of the War Measures Act and continued in force under the National Emergency Transitional Powers Act, 1945. From time to time these basic maximum prices have been varied or the fixed maximum has been suspended in the case of particular goods and services by Orders issued by the Wartime Prices and Trade Board under the authority of the above Regulations. A few days ago a sub stantial number of suspensions from price control was announced. Summary of GOODS Mi*. and Ml'3.

Most certainly not when you're stiff and cold. Don’t expect your car to work its best when the grease and oils are heavy from cold weather. Be sure the proper grades of lubricants have been used throughout. USE SUNOCO OILS AND GREASES T NOTICE I believe it is desirable therefore that a summary should now be published of those goods and services on which a legal maximum price remains in force under the provisions of the Wartime Prices and Trade Regulations so that all citizens may be given an opportunity to inform themselves of the law. The complete price control regulations are contained in Wartime Prices and Trade Board Order No. 684 which is available to the public at any office of the Wartime Prices and Trade Board, and to which reference should be made for exact details. •> Minister of Finance, AND SERVICES REMAINING SUBJECT TO MAXIMUM 0 o e Q 0 0 o « 0 0 0 0............_w _ • Maple products—1946 prod- 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 ® Bicycles, parts and acces sories.
