It was encouraging, he said, to note that municipalitits were showing the way by sharply dccreasing their borrowing. â€" Municipalities throughout Canada had issued only $19 millions in new debenturesâ€" in 1940, compared with $28 millions in 1939, $30 millions in 1938, and $55 millions in 1937. Moreâ€" over, municipal debht was estimated to; have been slashed by $160 millions in the last two years, making a total reâ€" duction of nearly $240 millions in seven Years. < i | | LOUISE PLATT â€""AFRICA SQUEAKS" "In war, as in peace, it is good citiâ€" zenship to own life insurance, and the Canadian â€" who so invests his savings has the satisfaction of knowing that he is assisting in a very material way in furthering Canada‘s war effort." | _ Pointing out that general business ; activity was 25 per cent greater in 1940 ;thflll in 1939, Mr. Macdonad stated that Canada‘s national income in 1941 'will be a billion dollars greater than in 1939. Spending this extra money on luxuries, however, would inpede the | winning of the war, he warned. | _"If our citizens who receive higher iwugcs increase unduly their purchases _of nonâ€"essentials which require labour, materials or foreign exchange needed in war effort, the results could be most unfortunate and perhaps serious. Citiâ€" zens would be competing against the government for labour and material urgently needed in war work," pointâ€" ed out Mr. MacDonald. The life insurance companies played an important role by marshalling the savings of 3500,000 policy owners and then lending these "fighting dollars" to the government, stated Mr. Macâ€" donald.
