Mr. Spinney thanked the Iuves -

operation, reanar1ding that it con-
stituted one of the great pieces of
machinery in the set up of the
National War Finance Committee.
He vend that through the National

ment was going to make further de -
manias upon the time and tacdlttdes of
the Aslswciabiom, noting 'teat they
would cons!tttute the greatest test It

and to defend the land we love. We
can count upon it that war is never
cheap but it surely ins a million times
cheaper to: win than to lose."
Mr. Spinney warned of the
dangers 00 inflation potnbing out that
glue wrong hind of financing could
raise the cost of ,the war program
and yet reduce its, e'llactency. He
insisted that 'while Govehement
regulation could do a great deal to
check inflation, no threat% laws er
administrative decrees, could do for
the Canadian people what they could
do for theinseives by foregoing ex-
cessive spending and regularly set
aide a portion of their earnings in
War -Savings Certificates! and Victory
Bonds.
He recalled the swift progress of
inflation in the last war, from- 1916
when the cost of living first began
to rise until 1920, "Some of us
may renneruber," he quoted, "that the On Quality Eggs
average cast of a 10 -pound bag of
sugar was $2.50; a dozen eggs cost Laying .hens, bring the highest re -
89 cents; a 10 pound bag of flour sold turns, when fed to pr'od'uce high

money a'housewife paid tar a yareeaf
cotton cloth was by 1920 enough to
buy only one-thirdof a yard. Food,
fuel, shelter and clothing which cost
$1. in April 1916 had risen to almost
$2. in 1920, so that the family with
no increase in income found its pro-
ducing power cut in half.
