V.C.'s.
United
States,
the
purchasing
power
of
money
is
relatively
less
in
that
country
owing
to
the
excessively
high
prices
of
goods.
The
war-instituted
policy
of
wage
and
price
control,
.as
now-practised
in
Canada,
has
benefited
and
will
continue
to
benefit
the
(Canadian
worker
by
protecting
his
living
standards
and
avoiding
an
inflationary
rise
in
prices,
which
would
cancel
the
advantage
gained
by
an
increase
in
his
real
wages
during
the
war
years
and
since.
During
the
last
war
and
up
to
today
Canada
has
managed
by
means
of
price
control
to
maintain
a
general,
price
level
in
this
country
which
has
enabled
wage
.earners
to
purchase
goods
and
services
at
reasonable
prices.
This
is
in
striking
contrast
to
conditions
in
many
other
countries
where,
due
to
failure
to
control
prices,
the
purchasing
power
of
wages
is
much
less
than
before
the
war
and
the
standard
of
living
is
lowered
to
that
extent.
Wage
stabilization
is
necessary
because
wages
form
a
very
considerable
part
of
the
cost
of
producing
the
goods
and
services
we
all
must
use.
The
real
value
of
wages
de-uend
upon
their
purchasing
power.
Increases
in
money
waees
unless
they
can
be
taken
care
of
by
employers
out
of
profits
alreadv
existing-,
are
bound
to
increase
the
cost
of
gockls
and
services.
LETTERBOX
WOMEN
BEHIND
STRIKE
Editor,
Daily
News:
There
was
a
report
in
your
Issue
of
May
18
claiming
that
it
was
an
"open
secret"
that
the
married
women
.of
Terrace
were
opposed
to
the'
I.W:A.
strike.
On
behalf
of
the
members
of
the
newly
formed
Terrace
ladles
auxiliary
of
the
International
Woodworkers
I
would
like
to
say
that
it
is
so
secret
that
none
of
us
know
anything
about
it.
The
married
women
of
Terrace,
far
from
being
opposed
to
the
strike,
are
solidly
behind
our
men
In
their
battle
for
a
25
cent
per
hour
increase,
40
hour
week
and
union
security.
We
know
how
hard
lt.ls
these
days
to
feed
and
clothe
our
families
with
rising
prices.
In
fact
we
have
Just
formed
a
local
branch
of
-the
Women's
Auxiliary
of
:the
I.W.A.
at
Terrace
so
that
we
can
fight
and
back
the
union
one
hundred
per
cent.
