WE regret that thousands of applicants
have had to "line up" for telephone service.
Telephone equipment has been critically short
because this is a "communications" war. And
of course the armed forces, the government
and war industries still move automatically to
the head of the line; their needs' come first.
Only as material becomes available for less
urgent needs can we take care of our waiting
list, and on a firstcome-firsteerved basis.
We realize it's no fun having to "stand in line"
this way. Applicants have been surprisingly
cheerful about it --a fact we deeply appreciate.
We just want them to know that we will be
every bit as glad as they when we can ones
again meet every request for telephone
service—fully and promptly.

Compared with the cost of other commodi-
ties, electricity is cheaper than ever in Canada
today. While average commodity prices
have now risen more than 18% over the 1935-
1939 average, the cost of electricity has
actually dropped.
Report by the Dominion Bureau of Statistics,
December 4, 1944, says: "Reductions in
electricity rates during the last year have
provided a stabilizing influence upon the
general cost of living index". On this date:
Cost of living was up 18.9%
Cost of food was up 30.8%
Cost of fuel was up 8.1%
Cost of electricity stood at 91.4%
--a drop of 8.1%
•
Through the support that Ontario people
have given their Hydro System, this Province
now enjoys electricity at rates that compare
favorably with the lowest in the world.
Greater use brings lower cost.
With the corning of peace, much power now
being used for war production will be available
to bring increased benefits to homes and /amts.
Plan now for greater use of Hydro service.'

QUESTION 3.
If only one person has signed under question 2, state the reason why the
other signature cannot be given. Give details—don't say Father or Mother
is "away"—state where and for how long.
QUESTIONS 4, 5, 6 and 7
on the other side of the form must also be answered either "Yes" or "No"
If the answer is "No" to questions 4, 5 or 6, state details giving name'of
child, or children concerned. In the case of No. 5, if you have any children
under 16 not living with you, list their names, give the reason and the
complete address as to where they can be visited. If the answer to No. 7
is "Yes", give the details required.
a+ INCOME TAX: So that nobody will benefit from both Family Allowances
and a full income tax deduction for their children, the income tax deduc-
tions for children will be reduced by the amount received from Family
Allowances. Parents, therefore, have the choice of claiming—or not
claiming—Family Allowances. Those uncertain as to whether or not they
will benefit are advised to apply for the Family Allowance.
