SOMEDAY THAT DREAM home will be yours â€" if you are willing to fight for it today! Bricks may build a house, but to build a home you need more than bricks! You need securityâ€" a job â€" a future! And these depend on a Canadian dollar that will always buy a full dollar's worth of goods â€" a steady, sound dollar that's not pulled down to half its value by inflation! That's why it's necessary NOWâ€" more than ever now â€" for all of us to fight and work to keep that dollar worth a dollar! Why is it so important NOW? Because »ou' is the time civilian goods are source, and money is plentiful. NOW is the time we must guard against paying MORE than things are worth ... or buying things we PMist*J h THE BREWING INDUSTRY (ONTARIO) (o reveal the dangers of inflation. don't really need. We must support rationing, observe price ceilings, and avoid black markets. If we do this, we can keep prices from shooting sky high. If we don't, some day we'll be paying a dollar for fifty cents* worth of goods. This means your dollars â€" those dollars you've saved to buy your homeâ€" will only be worth fifty cents! This is inflation! And after inflation comes depres- sion! We know what happened after the last war! It mustn't be allowed to happen again. That's why, for our own sakes, and for the sake of the returned men to whom we owe a job, a future, a home of their own â€" we must make sure Canada's dollar re- mains steady. We must keep up a constant fight against our country's enemy â€" inflation!

By r*i|M«<<ng prk* (.irtrelt tad other aati-inflation measures, and re- fraining from careless and unneces- sary 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, supporting taxation and abiding by all such measures which will lower the cost of living and help keep prices at a normal level. <f* ^' ? i
