If the W.P.T.B. press releases issued . at the time when the restrictions were first imposed, about two years ago, were accurate, we must by now have clothed the whole Canadian army with our discarded trouser cuffs, extra trousers and clippings from the extra width of double-breasted coats. As cuffs and extra trousers are again allowable, it must be assumed that the demand for uniforms has passed its peak. Perhaps the wearers of double-breasted coats might now be given back their second fronts without danger to the military operation of the same name. As far as casual observation shows, there has not been a noticeable decline in the appearance of civilian clothing. For the average male the interval between purchase of new suits and overcoats may have lengthened since 1939, but credit for the resulting saving in cloth should go to the Receiver-General rather than to 'the W.P.T.B.
