_ Your fellow workers in Great Britain
and Europe need energy foods, such as meat,
in their desperate efforts to mend their, war-
torn countries.

They ‘are looking to Canada to help
them in this emergency..
That is why. Canadians are sharing

get back.on the road to normal.

Canada’s. meat ration, with’ the recent
changes in coupon values of cooked . meats,
assures a generous allowance of many “lunch

Every effort is also being made to see
that mining, lumbering and similar communities
get a fair share of meat alternatives, such as
eggs, cheese, poultry and fish. OS .

If extra meat rations were allowed for
all workers in heavy industry, the standard
ration would have to be reduced.

The family» ration of many workers
would be no greater than it is now; in many
instances, it would be less. ;

entire Canadian trade union
movement, and in particular on
Mosher, Conroy and Millard.
Labor. does not intend to let
that happen. .
