Manitoba Leads In War Savings in June 1941
Manitoba again led the Dominion in war savings certificates in June with 436 724 sales against a 520 000 monthly quota. In six months of 1941 Manitoba contributed 7 percent of total Canadian war savings, more than any other province, but overall progress is short of the 3 120 000 half year target. Dr E J Tarr praises the record while warning that June’s 83 98 percent of quota signals slackening. The piece urges renewed effort toward a total war economy and questions the path ahead.
