Powley, Canadian â€" Broadcasting Corporaâ€" tion Overseas Representative, who recently returned to Canada from Europe.‘ ‘"Money just about ceases to be the medium of exchange. The cigaret has taken over in many European countries as the comâ€" mon medium by which ig)ods are priced. Value is thought of in terms of cigarets or of any item in great demand. The generally quoted value of cigarets in Holland was one guilder each, which is two shillings or roughly fifty cents." Mr. Powley said that "the loop mathematics of inflation" were nfi too readily comprehened by the average man, who realized quickly that if the price of goods was tremendously _ inflated then he would have to sell his goods or services at high prices to be able to afford to buy. As a result, "The spiral of inflation shot skywards like a giant firecracker going off." "I suppose it‘s the difference beâ€" tween hunger and starvation. A merely hungry man wants food above everything else but it‘s reaâ€" sonable to think that when he has been systematically starved for years, hunger has become endemic while the prospect of a cigaret calls up a more immediate apâ€" petite." _ 8 . Cigarets Take Place Of Money In Europe ‘"There seemed to be one craving above all others in Holland after its liberation," Mr. Powley stated, "and that was the craving for cigarets, When people are deâ€" prived of a lot of things it is oddiy enough the luxury deprivaâ€" tions that hurt the most. It is .the loss of the little things that seems to count more than anything else. "I saw little of Europe after the liberation," Mr. Powley said, "but one sight that could get very famiâ€" liar was the loosely milling crowd in any sidestreet of a town. More than likely it was just the local black market in operation. "Shortly after the liberation of Brussels I asked a leading Belgian banker why something wasn‘t done to stop these black markets. He said black marketing was, after all, one of the virtues of the reâ€" sistance. ‘When a man‘s been at it four years, the banker said, ‘knowing fie’d be shot if caught, he isn‘t going to be deterred by the threat of a small fine or a week in jail. The only cure for the black market is an adequate supâ€" ply of food.‘" The Women‘s _ Guild _ of St. Matthias‘ church, Searlett road, are holding their Christmas Sale on Saturday, Dec. 1, at 3 p.m. in the Sunday school room of the church.
