sate +3 When Cobalt got into financial diffiâ€" culties, the act was altered. Such a high tax was levied on the mines by (Continued from Page One) Finlay went on, the first act having to do with taxing of mines was passed in the legislature. The province was seeking revenue and so was the muniâ€" cipality of Cobalt. The "royalty" tax on profits of mines after certain deducâ€" tions was instituted then. The muniâ€" cipal income tax, provided for at the time, was to be deducted from the amount payable in royalty to the proâ€" vince. "If we still had that section," said Mr. Finlay, "there would be no question of exemption."

In 1927, another change was mad: and this is the one now under discus sion as to meaning. Apply to Legislature? Mr. Finlay advised the council to ap ply to the legislature for a change i: the act if they wished to get more tax>s Since the act had been interpreted b; the province and municipalities sinc 1927 to mean one thing, there was n« reason now for a changs, he said. "‘They interpreted it t> suit themâ€" selves," said Mr. Bartleman. Recent changes in the assessment did not include this case at all, Mr. Finâ€" lay said, but applied to companies other | than mining companies. Speaking of the collection of inâ€" come tax, Mr. Finlay said: "I would like any of you gentlemen to tell me how you would have colâ€" lected it unless the mines had volunâ€" tarily paid it." "I grant you, we couldn‘t have colâ€" lected it," said the chairman. Taxes Go Up With Profits In introducing the case for the town, Mr. Kester remarked that he had no quarrel with the historical review given, but disagreed with the "double taxaâ€" tion" item, pointing cut that double taxation is common, since an income tax is paid to the dominion governâ€" ment as well as to the town. Taxation goes up, he said, as profits or income become greater. That is the principle on which taxation of toâ€"day is based, he claimed. In that case, folâ€" lowing the reasoning of Mr. Finlay, if it is the government‘s intention that taxes should go up as profits increase in every other instance, it is logical to apply the same thing to mines, and the section of the act should read as the town has this year taken it to read, he argued. In 1917, the act was altered agai read that no income tax was t payable to any municipality in cess of 1‘%4 per cont. of the amosut profits, in no case to exceed $35 00 « “.00 m SA t "% ‘"A4A % :% ‘% “..0.0..0.. .00.00. # + *# *# # + .00.00 # # * * t ”.0..00.“. # * *#* *# # #* * _4 _% P.“.OO. parâ€" last writâ€" and d.

But, the premier warned the deputaâ€" tion that came to his office, "If we find Word from Europe this morning says that Italy is ccntinuing to pour troops and airplanes and weapons of war into Africa in readiness for war with Ethisâ€" pia. At the same time Ethiopia is drilling her warriors in preparation for the expected hostilities. At the same time Britain continues efforts to avert war, despite the fact that all previous efforts have been termed futile and appear to deserve the term from reâ€" sults.

It is understood that they are almost ready now and will be in ample time for even an early September election. Reports in regard to the Dominion election are that it will likely be held in September. Until this week, indeed, it seemed to be agreed in Ottawa that it was a September election, though the guesses as to the exact date ranged from Monday, Aug. 26th, all the way through September and even as late as Oct. Ith and 14th. ! _ No organized marchers were reported ffrom Quebec, where trials of trekkes | who attempted to leave the province were still under way in Montreal.

The Dominion Government did not contemplate interfering with the marâ€" chers unless provincial authorities reâ€" quested it, or action of the marchers required it, Fremier R. B. Bennett said in Ottawa Tuesday night. He could not see what good purpose could be achieved by the march. On Tuesday after they had been duly warned by Premier Hepburn and by Hon. Mr. McQuestin, Minister of Highâ€" ways, about 400 of the hunger marchers from Winnipeg crossed the Ontario line on Tuesday. They said they inâ€" tended to march to Kenora where they would make their next stop on their way to Ottawa. The men abandoned busses and pasâ€" senger cars at the Manitoba boundary, and crossed into Ontario on foot, after they were warned by the Ontario Deâ€" partment of Highways they would not be permitted to enter the province by automobile. They planned to march the fifty miles to Kenora on foot. Royal Canadian Mounted Police escorted them to the border. \Four Hundred Men Said to _ Have Crossed the Maniâ€" _ toba Boundary on Tuesâ€" \_â€" day.

Quebec has been stopping all attempts to "hunger march" by trucks out of that province and there have been arrests by wholesale in the province. Already number of the wouldâ€"be leaders of the soâ€"called march from the province of Quebec are serving time in jail for their breach of the law, while others are being held for trial. Despite some firmer words from Premier Hepburn the "hunger marchers" apparently are able to outwit and defy the authorities in Ontaris.
