sion is that The Telegram Would rather

It is to be hoped that the addeesS of
President Crabtree of the Canadian
Meaufactu.rers' aesocietion, an extract
frem which, was published in this paper
last week, will have wide reading and

out that actiori:taken elsy the Govern-
ment at the beginniag pf the war,
through the 'Wartime Prices Board and
Other agencies, had succeeded in keep-
ing the inereeselan the .eckgt of living

eighteen months of war, according to
doverninenc-ftu'ree, being only about
seven per eent. .
It is a matter of great ImPortance.
