Figure it out for yourself. It takes 5,250,000 gallons of gasoline to fuel 5,000 bombers and fighters for a mission over Germany. It takes enough oil for one fueling of a battleship to heat an average house for 350 years. It takes 18,000 gallons of gasoline to keep one armoured division on the move for one hour. From petroleum and petroleum gases we obtain the gasoline and fuels needed to power planes and ships and tanks as -well as the raw material for acetone, ammonia and toluol for ex- plosives, organic chemicals for an- aesthetics, naphthas for camouflage paints and plastics and resins for war weapons production. This is why civilian gasoline is short. This is why it's up to every motorist, to every owner of an oil-heated home, An announcement issued by The Department of Munitions and Supply, Honourable C. D. Howe, Minister to exercise the strictest economy in 'gasoline or fuel oil usage. Every gallon we can do without here at home is one gallon more for the fighting men. And they need every gallon they can get. Two full years of gasoline rationing and fuel oil control in Canada have saved 393,000,000 gallons of gasoline and 175 million gallons of fuel oil - a total saving of 568,000,000 gallons of petroleum products, Yet,, despite this saving, gasoline stocks on hand in Canada, as .of March 31st, this year, were 5,5,000,000 gallons les( than at the commencement of rationing, April 1, 1942. Oil has a mighty war job to do - yet supplies are short and are constantly dwindling. Oil powers the attack on every front. Oil can mean the difference between success or failure, between light casualty lists and heavy. Oil is vital ammuni- tion - not to be wasted, not to be needlessly, frivolously spent. Answering Your Questions about the Gasoline Shortage What are Canada's total yearly re- quirements of motor gasoline? . . . Approximately 800,000,000 gal- lons. Do these requirements have to cover both military and civilian needs? . . . Yes. Why cannot this supply be increased? . . .,Because total hemispheric supplies are in- adequate to meet both the colossal war demand and civilian needs. There is not enough oil, there are not enough tankers, for both. How much of Canada's petroleum needs is supplied from Canadian wells? . Only 15% Why can't this home production be increased? ... Every effort is being made to do so. More new wells are being drilled or,pre- pared for drilling, than at any time in the history of Western Canada, but we have yet to find' a new Turner Valley. War does not wait for new production. MS-44X OR. R.1 STEWART PHYSICIAN Telephone 29 W. A. CRAWFORD, M. D.

Education a War Necessity The University of Western Ontario is devoted to the train- ing of men and women for the duties and responsibilities of citizenship, In these days (a) Trained leaders are greatly needed in every walk of I ife; (b) Qualified scientists are now in urgent demand and will likely be required in greater numbers in the near fu- tore; (c) Men and °women with high academic• and professional training are a war neces- sity. . The Army, Navy and Air Force want men for key jobs who are fully qualified and trained. Our Armed Services demand the best we have. - In the time of crisis men and women Who have health and ability should qualify them- selves for the services of the State. Education means the training of the mental and moral powers or natural endowments of the individual either by a system of study and, discipline or by the hard experiences of life. It is such training that gives strength to men and makes them great. FALL TERM REGISTRATION 1944-45 September 5th - Students in Medicine in all years except the first , year.
