Security for your WORK Here are some of the definite, practical steps taken by the Liberal Government to give secu- rity to home and family by assuring well-paid post-war jobs for everyone: For Veteions — The most generous plan of any United Nation to get returned men started in the type of work each of them chooses. The Liberal Government is determined that every man and woman coming home to Canada shall ,.•return to the land of greatest 'opportunity in the world. r • For Workers —, About a third of all Canadians dePend.on exports for their livelihood. Liberal plans provide for increasing our exports 60% in value over those of 1939. For Farmers — Acting on the belief that all ,Canadians prosper when farmers do, the Liberal Government has arranged that they can im- prove their farms and equipment under a new oohplan and bas arranged to put a floor under 'n the prices of farm and fishery products. To stimulate employment for all, the Liberal Government has created a special Department of Reconstruction which is now in operation and which will co-ordinate private and public enterprise. • Security for your HOME The liberals believe that the home is the heart of the nation. They aim to give Canadians every possible rfacility to build and furnish better homes!. With Government assistance you can build a home in she country, town or city. This will make jobs fortl,ebuilding trades, and those who make building supplies—and those who manufacture household equipment and fur- • .'shine. .. New Homes for Canadians — The Liberal Government's new $400,000,000 National Housing Act, now on the statute books, enables hundreds of thousands of Canadians to get money at low interest and on long, generous terms to build, renovate or enlarge their own homes. Now that Germany is defeated, plans are already in operation for at least 50,000 dwellings. Other practical, workable measures for the security of your home are the Liberal Govern- ment's laws for Unemployment Insurance and liberal Old Age Pensions. The Liberals believe in doing what can be done, as soon as it can be done. If returned to power on June 11th, they will carry on and expand the sound, constructive work already started. Security for your FAMI L'Y Family Allowances — Starting in July, parents who benefit least from income tax exemptions will receive Family Allowance cheques every month to help them get better food, clothing, shelter and education for their children so they can grow into healthy, vigorous Canadian citizens. These cheques will amount to between $200,000,000 and $250,000,000 a year. As •.n direct spending power, this will do much to help in achieving the Liberals' objective of full employment. Health — A National Health Plan will ensure that everybody shall be taken care of while they are sick and the best measures medical science can devise shall be employed to prevent disease. Despite the efforts of Drew, Bruce, Bracken and other reactionaries, the Liberals are deter- mined that human interests, the needs of men, shall be placed before "business as usual". The Liberals have faith in Canada, a united country, and in their ability to continue to build, with your support, a more abundant life and greater opportunities for Canadians.
