WAR PRODUCTION • -
Two 9f Acton's largest industries
have asked the town council to close
beverage rooms at an, earlier hour,
pointing out the serious effect thek.
were' having on war ,production.
This led the Paisley Advocate to
tell df an 'instance where an indus-
try engaged in turning out products
vital to the war effort, had laid off
thirty-four men since early spring,
because these, men, working on• the
night shift, persisted in sipping beer
for an hour or two before reporting
for work.. Female help ,was. hired
in many cases 'to fill thesejobs, but
now too many of the girls are tak-
ing "two or • three" before coining•
on the job: The Advocate concludes:
One • wonders just how long Can-
adians are going to stand for this
sort of sabotage of the national, war
effort",
