The Silver Lining
Of Peace
by Edna Jacques
Peace will have a silver lining - -
only 1f we weave the fabric of our
national life to make it so.
In the last few months the world
has found out the bitter truth: that
victory isn't enough; we've got to
make itwork.
Famine is an ugly word. To die
of sheer hunger must be one of the
worst things that could befall a
human being. To get a little
weaker each day, to watch death
come to your children and loved
ones , . this, must be the dregs of
human misery.
In Europe there are a hundred
million starved and half-starved
people. Millions are homeless,
thousands crippled, wounded, batter-
ed and forsaken, waiting for food.
If the people of Europe are to
survive. we lutist send more food
to them. Not next summer or after
another crop, but now --Death won't
wait.
This past week has seen the black
cloud of famine lowering over the
whole Continent,
The people of Britain were dis-
mayed by the news that their al
ready meagre rations weri to be
r educed, even lower than
any time during the war. They,
who haven't eaten any too well for
six years, were told that their cook-
ing fat rations would be reduced
further, and bread would return
to its dark wartime hue with a pos-
sibility of it being rationed.
There would be less bacon, poul-
try and eggs. No more dried eggs
would he available. (To British
housewives dried eggs have been a
Life saver.) Meat would be kept the
same, about 25 cents worth a week,
this includes 21/e slices of bacon per
week and one shell -egg a month.
These added reductions are being
made In order to allow more to go

Every housewife in Canada is
urgently requested to watch all

Consider Cut In Duty On Jeeps
Ottawa,—Revenue Minister McCann
and the Tariff Board have tinder con-
sideration an application by Canadian
agents for lowering of the tariff duties
on importations from the United Stat-
es of the universal, jeep.
Present duty on the jeep, including
' exchange, is 36 per cent, making a
' jeep costing $1,000 in the United Stat-
' es about $1,360 in Canada. The uni-
versal jeep, heavier and adaptable to
more purposes than the army jeep, at
present is classified as a truck for cus-
toms duty purposes, but advertisers
describe it as a passenger car, truck,
light tractor, power plant and an ag-
ricultural machine.
Two -Plate Marker System
Returning?
Toronto,—Ontario Highways Mini-
ister George Doucett, said his depart-
ment proposed to make repsesenta-
tions to tite Federal Government for
permission to resume the practice of
issuing two automobile registration
plates.
Mr. Dohcett said the Federal steel
controller had requested that the Pro-
vincial Government continue to issue
a single plate this year, as has been
done since the start of the war, be-
cause of depleted inventories of all
forms of steel resulting from steel
strikes in the United States.
He added that from a police point
of view two plates were essential for
the prevention of crime,
cru two valid auger coupons.
Primary producers of maple syrup
and maple sugar must register at
their local Ration Board, Coupons
or purchase vouchers must be col-
leeted from consumers or dealers,
for each sale of maple syrup or
maple sugar and these coupons wit8t
any other ration documents must
be mailed to the Local Ration Board
oath month. Special envelopes for
which no postage is requited are
available at the Local Ration 'Board.
