of

After
all

only
one
half
of
the
meat
produced
in
Canada
will
be
available

consumption

the

Rationing
will
help
prevent
local
meat
shortages
such
as
occurred
last
year
from
becoming
widespread
and
continuous

THE
MEAT
RATION
WILL
BE
AMPLE
FOR
HEALTH
AND
NUTRITION
Fortunately,
our
meat
production
in
Canada
has
increased.
So,
although
onfy
half
our
production
will
be
available
for
civilian
use,
it
wil
mean
a
reduction
of
only
about
1J
to
20
in
the
average
household
consumption.
The
proposed
ration
of
2
lbs.
(carcass
weight)
per
person,
per
week,
has
been
approved
by
the
country's
leading
food
and
nutrition
authorities,
as
ample
for
the
health
and
nutrition
standards
of
everyone
regardless
of
