effect of protracted austerity on‘ j‘

the country's health, there were warnings that the food import _ program might have to be trimmed further unless more hard curren- available.

Most basic food supplies are ‘guarded by long-term contracts and to supplement them British mis- sions dicker Ludustrlously with non-dollar countries bringing in eggs from Poland, poultry from Hungary and dairy products from Denmark.

Domsetic shortages snake the sel- lers cautious, however. and odtel their desire for dollar payment or for machinery which Britain ta lpledged to deliver elsewhere hold up transactions.

In an effort to lessen the coun- try’s dependence on North Am- erica. British agriculture ls being encouraged to produce as never before, but even if s11 1968 targets are realized. only 42 per cent of the basic ration will be horne-

grown.

Hampton. were shocked and saddened when beeam known that she had suddenly pass- ed away shortly after she had cast her vote at the poll in Vic- forts on Election Day December ‘llth. She in company with her husband and Mrs Clayton Mor- rison were driving home in their car when Mrs. Rogerson suddenly complained of feeling ill. It was decided at once is turn around and go to a doctor at Orapaud but before reaching the doctor's office she passed away. The ‘eceased lady who was a. comparatively young woman was of a kind and triendly nature. a devoted wife and loving mother, and one who took a wide interest in Sun- day School. Church and W. M.
