If you were to spend half a day in
the Licensing Division of the Canada
Food Board you would come to the
conclusion that something bigger than
you dreamed of is going on just there
—something that is upsetting 'old
standards and imperceptibly revolu-

The undertaking is immense but
every week sees fresh strides being
made and dealers of all kinds and de-
grees being brought into line. One
