New Zealand’s exports to Britain of £35,000,000 against imports of £13,000,000 leave Britain £22,000,000 to the bad. Britain alone has an adverse balance. And yet we speak of the ‘Mother Country,’ talk about ‘bonds that tie us,’ and complain about quotas and restrictions. Do we in New Zealand realise that our destiny lies with Britain? Do we realise how much we owe to Britain? Is it not time we commenced repayment, not in platitudes, but in the cold hard cash of commerce? It is time to buy British, for all we are worth. We cannot buy everything from Britain, but we could buy an enormous amount more. Take oil, motor oil. There is a completely and wholly British oil on the market, Sterno! W.W. Motor Oil. It is a super oil, a 2,000 mile oil —and to be that it has got to be good, otherwise Sternol would not be supplying the Royal Airforce, the British Navy and the British Army—for Planes, Battleships, Tanks —where reliability means lives. To satisfy Britain’s fighting forces, Sternol had to be more than British —it had to be the finest oil that money could buy. In your case it has to be more than the finest oil that money can buy —it has to be British. It is. Buy Sternol W.W., it will be good for your car, good for your pocket, and above all good for your country. moeft &.M STERNOL A 2,000 NILE MOTOR OIL (00% BRITISH Ask for Sterno! by name from your Service Station or your local supplier ORIGIN OF N.Z.’s PETROLEUM IMPORTS Grouped according to British Board of Trade Classification Each tanker represents £! 00,000.
