They cheerfully adjust their standard of living, realizing that their country's needs must come first. They do not try to gain unfair ad- vantages over their neighbours. Are you a hoarder or a loyal citizen? Are you hampering Canada's war effort by un- necessary buying? Or are you People 'who buy more of any- thing than they currently need, and merchants 'Echo encourage them to do so, are sabotaging the war effort and are therefore public enemies. co-operating to the best of your ability to save Canada from such horrors as Hong Kong? If Canadians do their duty, there will be no more hoarding. Everyone will get a fair share of the goods available. More food can be sent to Great Britain. More raw materials -- more manpower — will be available for making guns, tanks, planes and other armaments to back up our armed forces. In cases where it is advisable for you to buy in advance of your immediate requirements — such as your next season's coal supply—you will be encouraged to do so by direct statement from responsible officials.
