For wages and salaries never catch up to prices when they start to soar! How would we like to pay $1.10 a dozen for eggs? You say it can't happen? Don't forget it's already happened right here in this Domin. ion, during the last war. And it will happen again . . unless we're on our toes to keep the cost of living down. Every Canadian must face this challenge! It's our responsibility. But be of good heart. Living costs have risen LESS in Canada than anywhere else. Canada leads the world in the fight against inflation. HERE'S HOW IT'S HONE— In 1941, Canada determined to control the cost of living. Price ceilings were established on.wages, rentals and commodities; subsidies were paid on essential foods; goods in short supply were rationed ..so that everyone could get their fair share at a price they could afford to pay! But control of prices is a tWoway responsibility. It needs yeer. support If his to continue working effectively. Listen To ."
