Is that too hard a name for people who selfishly lay in unnecessary stocks of clothes or food, or other goods for fear of shortages? No ! The name is not too hard, even though it may be earned through thoughtlessness. For in reality they are doing, in a petty, mean way, what the Quis- ling does in the open. Anyone who buys more than is necessary for current needs— Is breaking his country's law for personal advantage. Is betraying his loyal neighbours and those who are not so well off as he. Is, in effect, depriving our fighting men of the munitions and supplies they must have to defend us. Is hindering our war effort and helping our enemies, Loyal citizens avoid putting unnecessary and abnormal strains on our factories. In time of war, loyal citizens do not spend one dollar'more on civilian goods than is absolutely necessary for current needs. The law provides for fines up to $5,000 and imprison- ment up to two years for hoarding; and hoarding is just another word for unnecessary selfish buying. 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.

MUTUAL FIRE UNDERWRITERS TO TRY TO REDUCE LOSS BY FIRE Will endeavor to cut fire losses this year by 2s per cent. of Five .Year Average. ... ... ... ... ....... The annual convention of the 68 Farm Mutual Insurance Corn- panies unanimously adopted a resolu• tion to endeavor to reduce farm losses by at least 25 p.c. this year as compared to the average lossesc of the last five years. To impl:ernent this resolve, a meet ing of the executive members of this provincial body will meet at the office of the association secretary, Walter R. Cross, Galt. The commit.. tee plans to use the press to appeal to policyholders to execute all pos- sible cae and caution to prevent fires starting from carelessness. Cir. cular letters will be sent out from some of the companies to their policy holders, drawing attention to fire hazards and suggesting remedies. It is pointed out that :during .941 the farm mutuals of Ontario sup- ported by 150,000 fame policy- holders paid out losses of $1,079,- 696 and also that these figures show an increase over 1940 by $67,566. Two facts are very •significant in these 'figures:1, Something should be done to stop rising losses as they present a serious problem. 2. If a concerted and vigorous fire prervention • program will save 25 per cent it is a very large son tribntion 40 a national conservation pan. Prom the foregoing facts it will e evident that the I�'fire Prevention ommittee has a big and important oh Ito do. This committee is cons Deed of II. H. 'McFadden; Olive) rury, Chatham; IL K. Silber, Cred iton and Walter R. Cross, Galt. This committee will work with members of the Fire Marshal's office in car- rying out this important task.
