The Brussels Post, 1946-11-6, Page 3THE BRUSSELS POST One more can be one too many Even Hydro cannot always find immediate room for one more consumer. Present demands for Hydro power taxes existing facilities to the utmost. This is due to ever-increasing use of low-cost Hydro service plus necessarily restricted Hydro construction during and since the war. Shortage of materials and equip- ment makes it impossible to speedily accomplish expansion long since planned. Lines and transformers now serving any one district can carry just so much power. Wherever that capacity is being completely used by present consumers, addition of new customers could be made only at the expense of service to the old, until new materials for extensions are obtainable. This condition applies in city, town and country. Everything possible is being done to overcome it. New equipment is being installed as fast as it becomes available. Your Hydro Commission trusts and believes you will recognize the facts; and assist, by your patient co-operation, in the orderly restoration of the prompt service that your Hydro always strives to maintain. In the meantime, let your Hydro know as early as possible of any planned substantial increase in your power needs, and use this low- cost servant wisely. CRANBROO� .

Ts this true? A; -Yes. Recently, due tothe shortage In supply of evaporated milk it was necessary to revise some of the previous procedures. Tt used to he that children under two years of age were given an allowance if a medical certificate was presented the first time the applicaltien wee made, The allowances were then antrmatlrally renewed. Now a reeognized rertlficate must he pre- sented every time you apply for the pennons.

A: -.Soap and shortening is not ra.tlotted by Mi. Board but the shontage is temporary and improve. menta are expected shortly. Mer- chants may adopt any plan they wish in distributing these commodities to their rnstomers. We have no regulations requiring them to sell at certain hours or to limit their sales. They may do this of their own accord. We have disenvered that many merchants .have their own rationing plans and put these goods en sale at different hours of the day to hest accommodate ell the prospective buyers. • * * Q: -e saw large cane of unsweet- ened peaches in a store the other day and they were net rationed. Why is this when smaller cans are rationed? A: -These peaches in 105 ounce tins were pecked by canners largely for the use of restaurants nr public eating places. When the supply is greater than the demand some are sold to retail outlets. However, they require so much sugar that few households can use them efflalently. The small nano are rationed to protect diabetics who cannot have sweetened feeds, • • .r Q: -T paid 23 cents a pound for shortening, Ts this price too high? A: -The price does seam high. However, if you will give us the brand of shortening and the name of the dealer we will check; The oe111ng price Is the highest price asked during the basic period.
