From Jtlme to time, he said, food front officials claimed ordinary foods, such as carrots, are "so nourishing and good for you" served either raw or under all sorts of wartime disguises.

Employment seekers will have to have an employmnt office permit and employers seeking new workers must have similar permission. Mr. Mackenzie King, at the outset of his address, said that Canada faced one of the gravest hours In her history. The United Nations, he declared, had not yet begun to win the war. "We shall gain nothing by refusing to face the gravity of the situation," he asserted. Every citizen must now make his or her fullest contribu tion to -the war effort. All capable of doing some form of war service must perform such duty. The Prime Minister Intimated that the National Selective Service organization -would take over the direction of the calling" up of men" both for the armed forces and the war Industries although for the time being the calling up of men for military service would remain In the hands of the Department of National Defence. Many citizens would be requested to take up work more directly concerned with the war effort. Non-essential civilian activities would be curtailed and eliminated. the Wartime Prices and Trade Board to co-operate In this particular phase. There would be a special regis tration of women power, Mr. King announced. Mr. King made reference to the new action overseas of Canadians in the commando raid only yesterday In France. He reviewed war events In describing the serious ness of the situation In which the freedom of taankind was In danger. The enemy was attempting to envelop Russia and China, already gravely weakened, and seize control of India In the greatest plncer movement In the whole history of modern warfare. Breaking of the resistance of India could help only the Axis and certainly would not help India. Gravity of Situation Landings of the Japanese in the Aleutian Islands, Mr. Mackenzie King said, had brought danger to the doors of Canada. Nothing was to be gained In refusing to face the gravity of the situation. It was a time for grim determination and the situation was such that It required the utmost exertion on the part of all the United Nations. The Immense strength of the United States, the Prime Minister observed, was now making Itself felt and In the Pacific severe blows had been dealt the Japanese. To win vthe, war, however, It was essential that there be the most efficient effort. Every citizen must make his most useful Individual contribution. The government's manpower policy had already , touched ' directly at 'the' lives of many Canadians but there were still many who could render much greater service. Every man and woman capable of some form of war service yrtSuld be required to undertake service for which they were best qualified and for which there was the most (Continued on Page Two) 4 'it . :.rv TV 1 .j 1!
