Preliminary figures for the first six months of 1946 show 117 strikes, involving- 92,220 workers. For the same period last year, there were 95 strikes with 25,871 workers involved and a reported ioss of 564,- 925 working days. Approval was given in the com- mons this week to the constitutions of two United Nations agencies.

While to this extent, this rise in the index need not cause concern, the larger part of this month’s in- crease represents changes of a more lasting character and, like the inâ€"‘ creases in the index during the two preceding months, the bulk of in- crease reflects price adjustmentsl which had to be authorized this year in the face of seriously higher costs, he continued. ,____ -...V._ \. “It provides a mild foretaste of the sort of conditions for which we are headed, unless all groups in the Com- munity make a serious effort to hold the Aline,” he added. The increase of 1.5 points in the cost-of-living index between June 1 and July 1, while not expected, places the issue squarely before us, Donald Gordon, prices board chail- man, said. It shmvs us that our choice lies between a moderate and carefully controlled readjustment on the one hand and a sharp and ac- cumulating inflation on the other, he declared. While this increase, he continued, was in large part expect- ed and unavoidable, it\is neverthe- less a matter for most serious con- cern.

Due to advances in health maintenance and recreation sections, the miscellaneous items index rose from 112.1 to 113.7. Unchanged were the indexes for fuel and light at 107.2 and for rentals at 112.6. The rise of July 2 reflected widely distributed price increases, affecting four of the six budget groups. The foods index advanced from 142.1 at June 1 to 144.2, prices increasing for eggs, beef, lamb, potatoes and car- rots. Clothing moved up from 124.3 to 126.4, due mainly to advances in men’s wear and footwear.

A three-pound increase in the sug- ar ration for domestic consumers over the balance of the calendar. year, with comparable increases for industrial and quota users, was an- nounced in parliament by Acting Finance Minister Douglas Abbott. Mr. Abbott said improved stocks made the increase possible, although world sugar suppTies are still not sufficient to meet the demand. V The increase to the householder will be made by declaring valid three additional ration coupons, each good ior the purchase of one pound of sugar. Two coupons will be declar- ed valid in September and the third on or about December 6. Prices board officials said the an- nOuncement was made well in ad- vance in the hope that housewives would devote more of the sugar sup- person. Five sugar coupons will be declared valid on Senteml'mr 10 mm sugar allotment of ten pounds per person. Five sugar coupons will be declared valid on September 19, two in October, three in November and three in December. GENERAL INSUiRVXNCE Life. Fire.
