subscribe to the herald we con off help- in the past wars have brought with them a high cost of living ending with inflation 7his sapped the strength oi 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 we have done much to avoid a repetition of the disastrous price rises of previous wars we have paid higher taxes we have bought victory bonds we have severelylimited profits we have put a ceiling on prices and to make it possible to hold the ceiling wages and salaries have been controlled in one way or another most increased costs have been ab sorbed and very few passed on lothe holding the ceiling has been a struggle but the results have been worth while from 1914 to 1919 prices rose 60 from 1939 to 1944 the rise has been only 18 this effort of the canadian people has been successful enough to be noted in other countries but we must continue it
