MODERATION

aah sad

, a we are a moderate people, Canada has

come through the war with perhaps the least dislocation of any
nation actively involved. That is a remarkable tribute
both to the overall policies of our Government and to the
fundamental wisdom of the Canadian people.

And it holds out a glorious promise for the future.

But to make that promise come true in the days ahead w
have to continue to live up to our principles of moderation.
We shall have to continue to think, act and live—moderately.

To give in to the natural desire for immediate enjoyment
of everything and anything presently in short supply
can result only in inflation and disaster.

This is not our way.

The House of Seagram suggests that each day’s enjoyment be
moderate so that the rich promise of Canada’s tomorrow
can be fulfilled... to the full.
