Hand in every item you can; we will greatly appreciate it. It takes more than SOMEDAY THAT DREAM home will be yours—if you are willing to fight for it today! Bricks may build a house, but to build a home you need more than bricks! You need security—a job—a future! And these depend on a Canadian dollar that will always buy a full dollar's worth of goods -a steady, sound dollar that's not pulled down to Waif its value by inflation! That's why it's necessary NOW—more than ever now—for all of us to fight and Work to keep that dollar worth a dollar! Why is it so important NOW? Because noir is the thine civilian goods are scarce, and money is plentiful. NOW is the time we must guard against paying MORE than things are worth ... or buying things we don't really need. We must support rationing, observe price ceilings, and avoid black markets. If we do this, we can keep prices from shooting sky high. If we don't, some day we'll be paying a dollar for fifty cents' worth of goods. This means your dollars --those dollars you've saved to buy your home—will only be wolith fifty cents! This is inflation! And after inflation comes depres- sion! We know what happened after the last war! It mustn't be allowed to happen again. That's why, for our own sakes, and for the sake of the returned men to whom we owe a job, a future, a home of their own—we must snake sure Canada's dollar re- mains steady. We west keep up a constant fight against our country's enemy-4inllation! P,rblisher/ly `i'I R BREWING INDUSTRY (ONTARIO) to reveal thr 'dangers of lefletion, bricks ! Make this Pledge Today! 1 pledge myself to do my part in fighting inflation : By observing rationing and avoiding black markets in any Shape or form. By respecting pricecontrols and other anti•.inflation measures, end re. (raining from careless and unneces- sary buying. I will not buy two where one will do, nor will I bay a "new" where an "old" will do. By buying Victory Bonds, supporting taxation and abiding by all stroll mcasores which will lower the cost of living and Help keep prices at a normal level.
