This measure will also eliminate the sate of such goods to persons who are not bona Me residents of the country. A comparison between two of the coupon requirements in Eire and in Great Britain show that in the former country 40 coupons are needed for a suit of clothes as against 26 in Great Britain; and for a shirt, " coupons as compared with eight in Great Britain. Mats, caps and footwear are not rationed so far, nor is second-hand clothing. The rationing system adopted in Eire is even more drastic fhan that which has been in force for some time in Great Britain and Northern Ireland. Ration books have been issued to every individual, and 52 coupons have been allotted for clothing for one year. Members of the same family living together may pool their coupons. According to a report received from E. L McColl, Canadian Trade Commissioner at Dublin, Ireland, the Government of the United King- dom has decided to reduce the quantity of cotton goods exported to Eire, and to entirely cut ott supplies of rayon piece-goods or woollen materials, for the present at least. The quantity of cotton allotted to Eire in the future will be based on the amount of yam contained in the total exports to this country of piece-goods and yarn. As a result of the new regulations, and even taking home production of woollens into consideration. not more than 30 per cent. of the local demand for all textiles can be supplied. _ Such “twee would not be necessary except for the fact that Col. Robert McCormick own; both the Chicago Tribune and the Ontario Paper Co. and the 1ttttet6mtpany'ts mill: at untold, Ont., and Baie Comeau, Que., are exclusively engaged in supplying newsprint for the Chicago Tribune and its associated hater of Great Britain, the New York News. Co. McCormick is the type ot publisher who is the ttest to abuse the freedom ot the press and the ttgat to claim its protection. As a result of these restrictions on imports. clothing of virtually every description has been placed under Government control in Eire as from June tr, 1942. From that date it will not be legal, except by surrendering the required coupons, to buy cloth or clothing (with certain exceptions) or yarns containing cotton, silk. artificial silk, or paper concerned is in the United sat-m. There is, therefore. no con- neetion between the mooted tum!" ot electric power from Ontario Paper Co. at Thomld, Ont, to essential war industries and the tact that ot Britain's enemies in the United States the Chicago Tribune is among the most persistently outspoken and Gem-wry. _ It is no secret that Canada's supply ot hydro-electric power is barely adequate to meet the tremendously increased demands of war industries. This is particularly true in the Niagara distict of Ontario. Non-essential industries, of which Ontario Paper Co. is one, may have to relinquish their power supply in order that more essential industries will not lack. The Chicago Tribune and the New York News would still secure their full requirements of Canadian newsprint but a greater part of it would be purehated from newsprint mills fortunate enough to be located in sections of the country where the power situation is not as acute as it is in southern Ontario. There can, therefore he no question of discrimination or inter- ference with the freedom of the press. The simple fact is that un- fortunate though it may be, the Ontario Paper Company is only another non-essential industry which is feeling the pinch of war-time necessity in the national interests.

Clerk ‘ In the twelve years 1930-1941. the purchasing power of farm pro- duets-the year 1937 excepted-- was continuously lower than in the basic year 1926, In 1941, ttve car- loads of farm produce were re- quired to purchase the sump corn- moditirm as four rnrloads would pug-phase in 1926. The continued low purchning power has shown its plied: in lev- onl ways. Farmers have been un- able to make nous-an real-ce- _ By 1936. the general index had gained 7.9 points while the farm index had' gained 21 points. But farm products were still " points below the general. In 1937, farm prices index rose above the general index by " points but after that the farm prices index fell below and re- mained below the omeml index. In 194]. the indexes stood " 89.9 for the general and 71.2 for the farm. _ From 1930 to 1932, the wholesale price index of all commodities de- clined 19-9 points from 86.0 to 06.7. In the same time the index of farm profane“: fell 33.9 points from 813 to .4. l. The price disparity which dairy products, in common with farm products generally suffered from 1930 to 194t. tionary as a result of the price ceiling, and with an advance in the selling price of dairy cows within the year of 29 per cent. it seems likely that production for fluid milk wilt decrease. The position of disadvantage in which fluid milk at present stands in respect to price follows from twp gstinct 'ausetk-- "Assuming no material change in the output of butter and an in- crease in fluid milk consumption. milk production will have to be stepped up by about half a billion pound in this calendar Year." tEeo- nomic Annalist, June 1942. a.

I For this 1952 period éheese pro- duction increased 225 per cent over the corresponding 1941 period. _ Prices which have not been thus "restrained" are quoted on the same page of the Annalist.
