The Wartime Prices and Trade Board an- nounces that although fresh salmon i5 a seasonal product and supplies of it vary from time to time, the price will not be allowed to increase 0"" that 0f 194i. The order stipulates that no processor, wholesaler or retailer will be allowed to sell any fresh-caught salmon at a price greater than that obtained by him in the correspond- ing month of 194i for the same kind, brand, grade or quality of product. A previous order of the fish products administrator set the price for red and white fresh spring salmon caught in British Columbia waters. The new order has been widened in scope to include fish caught in thc waters of both the eastern and the west- ern coasts of Newfoundland.

The Bank of Nova Scotia’s Index of In- dustrial Activity in Canada rose again in Febru- ary-to a preliminary figure of 167.5 per cent of the 1935-4939 average from 166.0 per ccnt in January. At this level it was nearly 19 per cent higher than a year earlier and 60 per ccnt above the figure for August, I939. Both of the components of the Index-Employ- merit in the Production of Goods, and the Tonnage of Industrial Freight-Advanced in the latest month, and in about the same degree. lu- deed the two sub-indexes were identical in Feb- ruary, at 167.5 per cent of their 1935-1939 aver- ages, and have been moving in very close rc- lationship to each other ever since last autumn. Both measures confirm other available evidence that industrial activity as a whole has continued to increase over the winter to extremely high levels, particularly in the war branches of the manufacturing industries. The continued rise of industrial freight traffic on the railways, like the employment figures, chiefly reflects the oper- ations of war industry. Shipments of orc, coke, and general merchandise freight have been the most important factors in recent increase-s.

ll is lust over I2 months since a suggestion reached Australia from the troops zibrozrtl that a few herbs in the cook-houses would give a cer- tain interestwitgmarmy meals. An appeal went out to gardeners and a small band of voluntary \vork- ers set about preparing, sorting and packing herbs sent in. That was lhc beginning of the Dc- fence Canteens Herbs Association. Reports came back from the men. They had a better appetite for their meals. Medical officers noted the iin- provement in the health of the men for herbs have vitamins and essential oils. The Air Force and the Navy sat up and took notice ——yeilcd for spice in their dinners as well as in the stories afterwards. Army, Navy and Air Force have now placed a firm order for 3000 lb. England has noted the experiment and the Royal Navy is to have herbaceous trimmings to its menus. There is a shortage of herbs in England so Aus- tralia may have t0 help. ’l‘0day the association has 27o voluntary helpers.

A War Casualty

_.__.. The National Revenue Review, published monthly for 15 years by the Deparvmen of National Revenue, is a. war casualty. Its ed1- tor, Mr. J. Sydney Roe, announces that with its April number the Review "suspends publication for the dizratton of the war’ for ma.- som of economy,

The Review has been a. bright and Interesting publication, must have had a considerable circulation outside the ranks of the depart- ment. it was especially designed to serve, and readers will its statistical information, miss more its little human-interest stories of conscience money, of tourists who cross the border in mid-summer with skls or snowshoes, its concise reports on official orders and pran- tlces.

Perhaps it was some satisfaction to Mr. Roe that ln his last num- ber he could report the greatest national revenue in the history o! this country. For the 12 months to the end of March customs and excise revenue amounted to $688.- 094.856, which was an increase of $199,537,539 over the preceding year; and in the same period in- reached the prodigious total of $652,367,935, an increase of $380,229,645.

Helping To Keep Prices Reasonable

High taxes help to guard the country against unreasonable rises in the cost of living: They diver: money from un- necessary spending for peace-time goods to Government spending for essential war-time material

Saving money, practised by thousands of thrifty depositors has a similar effect: It helps to keep prices from soaring by decreasing the demand for non-essential, peace-time tofnmodltiel.

Thus, when you save money in a savings account, you benc- ﬁt yourself and the country. You will need to save, no: only for family and personal emergencies, but to pay taxes and to buy war securities. Saving today is a patriotic service.
