CANADIAN . .where the heart is! 55 SITTING by the fireside at home-- digging, in the garden for fun-- lazy weekends just fishin'--these things mean comfortable, pleasant living, the kind of living your man overseas is dreaming of, fighting for. Make sure these simple, pleasant things exist for him when he comes back. Remember that it is possible for them to exist only if his dollar is worth a dollar! By protecting his dollar, we help to protect his future. That's why we must realize NOW the dangers that lie in careless, unnecessary buying. Never buy two where one will do. Buy only what we need. We must support rationing and price control and encourage others to support them, and we must avoid ALL dealings with black markets. These are the rules. -If we break them, we can be certain that we will start our country -- his country -- on the spiral of inflation. Prices shoot sky-high. Wages try to catch up, and never succeed. You may pay a dollar for 30 cents worth of goods, and this means your dollar-- your soldier's dollar -- is worth only 30 cents. There's no limit to inflation, and there's no stopping it once it starts. So, let's make sure OUR boys will come back to a protected dollar-- a dollar that will buy a full dollar's worth of goods. Let's keep up the fight against inflation, every day, in every way we can, so that our men overseas can look forward to pleasant, satisfying living . . . the Canadian way of life. Make this Pledge Today! I pledge myself to do my part in fighting inflation: By observing rationing and avoiding black markets in any shape or By respecting price controls and other anti-inflation measures, and refraining from careless and unnecessary buying. I will not buy two where one will do, nor will I buy a "new" where an "old" will do. By buying Victory Bonds and War " imps, supporting taxation, and abiding by all such measures which will lower the cost of living and help keep prices at a normal level.
