Or perhaps you, are one of the Iucky ones who iust managed to scrape through? In either case, you will want to be prepared for next wiln£er when greater hardships loom unless you take immediate action. The shortage already has affected many communities . total stocks of dry wood are nearly exhausted . . . in some places the small supply of-green Wood cut for next winter is being used rivow to meet the -present emergency. Throughout most of Canada, fuel-wood is obtained not far from where it'is consumed. Its production and distribution are the business of local citizens. The Dominion Governmenî recognizes chat the wood-fuel, shortage is so serious that even with the fui co-operation of everyone in affected com- munîiws an adequate supply is not assured. Accordingly, it bas been decided to stimulate the output of wood-fuel by assisting-those normally engaged in its production an~d distribution. To this end, the following measures will be adopted iA subsidy of $1 .00 per cord will be paid 'to dealers on al commercial fuei-wood concracted for and cut on or before fune 30, 1943, and field to dealers' account on that date. 2 rhe Coal Conirolier iias Deea autlorazed <co arrange in his -discretion for the paymnent of such portion of the transportation costs as he considers proper in respect of fuel-wood, paruicul.. arly in cases where dealers, to procure supplies, find it necessary £0 contrac-, for fuel-wood at loations- outside the area (rom which they normally derive their supplies. la order to obtain any such reimnbursement, dealers must obtain a permit from the Coal Conîroller before contracting for such supplies. 3 he Loal C"ontroller will repurchase (rom dealers at dealer's cost ail commercial grades of fuet-wood on which a subsidy of $1 per cord has beeýn paîd and which are stili in dealers' handa as at M-a- 31, t944 d4 Assistance wili be given in providing priorities for necessary 5 armers now on the farm, and who leave the farm emporarily in response to this appeal to engage in fuiel-wood cutting, will be deemedj by National Selective Service to be carrying out their regular occupation as farmers and will be given ail the rights of defermient of miilitaryi service which such an occupa. tion now carrnes. Such temnporary absence should not, however., interfere witb agricultural production. Municipal councils, farmners, fue ' deacers, indidual citîzens, service clubs, and il other. groups in comimuniies where wood-fuel is blwrned, are urged to begin ut once a rapid suevey of their lcal situation, and to take imme- iate action ia relieve the shartage.
