To Pre-War Figures
THE biggest anti-profiteering measure by the Government since the war is contained in a new Price of Goods Order issued by the Board of Trade recently.
Under the Order the profit which the seller may take is to be controlled in the case of practically all articles of clothing, household commodities, furniture and, indeed, most of the necessities of life to the ordinary household.
It limits manufacturers, wholesalers and retailers to the monetary profit they made on August 21, 1939,
REFUGEES IN
YAWL HAD NEVER SAILED BEFORE
FOURTEEN refugees from Holland-12 men, a woman and a seven-year-old girl-arrived at an East Coast port recently with one piece of luggage between them-a box compass.
They had fled to Ymuiden only to find the last refugee ship had sailed. In desperation they cycled to Scheveningen and set out in an 18-foot yawl, though none. of them had been in a sailing boat before.

On board they found one flask of water, two bottles of lemonade, a loaf of bread and a box compass. They found compass under some old sailcloth,

Seven men of Jewish extractioni were found to be Germans and were taken to the police station for fur- ther interrogation.
The others, Including Dolly and her mother and father, were put on the train for London.
Baby Born After Landing Young chikiren and expectant mothers were among party of Dutch refugees who, hungry and ex- hausted, reached a South Coast port. Soon after their arrival u baby was born.
For two steepless days and nights the refugees were huddled in the holds of small Dutch trawlers equipped to carry passengers.
There was a shortage of food and water.

Retailers may, the Ministry of Food announced, sell oranges by weight orot-so-much-cach, in which case the maximum price by weight must not be exceeded and the pur. chaser may require the oranges to be weighed to ensure this.
