SENS RPT SSS ph is! SI oe io eer -- A = Ne EAE ST REIT Z SUPPLEMENT TO THE PORT PERRY STAR : OCTOBER 6th, 1944 BUY VICTORY BONDS é BE Vi Announcement of change mn Sperits Ration EFFECTIVE OCTOBER 2nd, 1944 OMMENCING October 2nd, 1944, and until further notice; every individual permit halder will be permitted to purchase monthly one bottle of spirits (25 or 26 ounces) . or two half bottles as available. As a result of the restrictions imposed by the Dominio Government under the Wartime Alcoholic Beverages Order PiC.11374, it was necessary to reduce the monthly ration of spirits to 13 ounces to assure adequate supplies of spirits until the end of the year. In increasing the sation it should be explained to the public that unless the restrictions imposed by the Dominion Government are removed a similar restric. Ee " tion will be necessary again next year, although the Board, - exgept for the Dominion Restriction, would be able to make available for distribution stocks of spirits in excess .of the present ration. In any event, however, the ration becoming effective on . October 2nd can be maintained throughout the winter months, 80 it is hoped that the public will co-operate by not buying in ~~ excess of actual requirements. -- AND n LIQUOR CONTROL BOARD OF ONTARIO a : - Victor T., Goggin OCTOBER 2, 1944 : go COMMISSIONER (MY a et tn A SCUGOG The W.
