The Purchase of Sugar Is Now Regulated by Law AS a prudent precaution, the quantity of sugar which may lawfufly be con- sumed in any household is now restrictedt by law to an. amount of three- quarters of one pound per person per week, and it is now unlawful to purchase more than two weeks' supply at any one ti'me or to make any purchase if present supplies are sufficient for more than two weeks. This step has been taken to conserve the satisfactory reserve stock of sugar in Canada and is an assurance to the consumier that there is no reason for, heavy buying of sugar. Ration coupons will not be used to enforce the sugar limitations in Can- ada. The supply of sugar in our country has been under conitrol for more than two and a haîf years an-d the hoinekeeper has always been able to satisfy her needs; she will continue to be able to do so and the price ceiling law pro- tects hier against any incerease in price. The maintenance of the new regulation govel[ning the ptLrchase of sugar rests, as the success of ail laws in a demiocratic country niust rest, upon the loyal support of the people. Any consumption of sugar in excess of the quan- tity stipulated by t1his regulation is 'not only an offence against the law, but is also a betrayal of the war effort and co nsequeritly an off ence against decency. Reports received from retailers indicate that in somne districts there has been misunderstanding of the requirements of the jaw. In some cases, people are under the impression that they sho uld at once lay in a sufficient supply f or two weeks; this of course is not necessary because a continuedl supply of sugar is assured. In other cases it has been assumed that a greatly restrict- ed ration is to be made effective in the near future. This is incorrect be- cause The Wartime Prices an-ic Trade Board has already stated that the sugar supply situation is sucli that requirements of the consumer at the rate of three-quarters of a pound per -week can readily be supplied. As a means of protecting consume rs from unknowinigly breaking the law, it is suggested to retailers that, for the present, they limit sales to any one customer to an amount of not more than five pounds. S ummary of Sugar Rationing Regulations' 1. The raion is 3/ pounds per person, per week, incuding aduits, children and infants,. members of the family, boarders, sevrants, and guests who remain for four days or more, 2.
