We Can Do Better
IN the past, wars have brought with them a high cost of living, ending with inflation.
This sapped the strength qt nations and added poverty and injustice to the other tragedies of war.
Later it has led to falling prices and unemployment.-
In this war, we Canadians are determined to head off this danger.- ;
In one way or another most increased costs have been absorbed and very few passed on to the consumer.
Holding the ceiling has been a struggle. But the -results have been wqrth while. From 1914 to 1919 prices rose 60%. From 1939 to 1944 the rise has been only 18%. ..
This effort of the Canadian people has7 been successful enough to be noted in other Countries.
But we must continue to hold the line. We need not let history repeat itself. We can do better.
