Stockings Will Not
Be Rationed
.Consumers Must understand
'There is a Limit to Production
Stating that the Wartime P.Ites
geed Trade Board is not considering
rationing stockings, Donald Gurdon,
Beare chairman, has issued an
appeal to Canadian women to limit
their purchases to the "abrolute.
minimum" in order that available
replies may meet requirements.
Production Spires shlw that prat
tically the ,same number of stuck-
0ngs were produoe'd this year at in
B043. The estimated civilian pro-
duction for this year is 3,400,000
dozen pairs, compared with 3,445,0,19
dozen pairs in 1943. Women's mill-
tary stocking requirements for this
-year totalled 100,000 dozen pair.
in making the announcement re-
garding stockings Mr. Gordon said,
'Ta this sixth year of war there are
moae pressing problems than that
elf producing unlimited quantities of
full fashioned stockings. The recent
call .from the Western front for
'more gums and shells should make
civilian consumers realize that tor
industries must have priority on
-mpailaple manpower. Consumers
will simply have to understand that
'there is a limit to what can ve pro-
•esneed. This country cannot support
a war effort of the magnitude under -
teen by Canada and at the same
time meet the insatiable demands
arising from the swollen purcha0ing•
power of oonsumers is wartime,"
