While no famine in essentials is antiâ€" cipated in Britain, the people have been urged to conserve stocks and avoid waste, Should the war prove a lengthy one, some diffisculty may be found in obâ€" taining the desired amounts of certain olls. ~Canadian and American reserve stocks df castor oil, olive oil and cod liver oil are adequate for some time but in time the war would affect importaâ€" tions.

While the last war fcund the western hemisphere unprepared, this war was expected. Raw materials Oobtainable cnly from overseas were bought for reserve. More important, however, is the fact that Canada is dependent on foreign countries for relatively few essential drugs. In both Canada and the United States, the manufacture of medicinal chemicals and synthetic proâ€" ducts has ‘become a staple industry. In fact, some products which had to be imported before 1914 have been exâ€" ported from this icontinent to Belgium in recent yvears. Canadians have no reason to fear a shortage of essential drugs as happened in the last war. Same dislocations in trade will be unavoidable.
