Three Mining Centres Agree The three largest gold mining muâ€" nicip@glities in the Noarthâ€"Town of Timmins, Township of Tisdale and Township of Teck, agreed during the summer to press their contention that they were entitled to large income! taxes from the mines. The Timmins case which is parallel to those in Kirkland Lake was based on the assumption that the mine, acâ€" cording to the assessment act, should pay one and oneâ€"half per cent. on' profits up to $2,333,333 and two and| oneâ€"half per cent. on all profits over that total. The mines claimed that the reaqmg of the act meant tnat they were to pay one ang oneâ€"half per cent. on all profits up to $2,333,333, and only oneâ€"per cent. on all profits over that sum. The additional oneâ€"half per cent. on Additional profits, would, in the | case of Hollingeor, mean the payment of " an extra $50,000 to tne Town of | Timngins. To date all mine taxation | in the North has been based on the . assignption the mines were defending.‘ Wording of Act Not Clear The paragraph of the act over which | the controversy has been raging is subsection nine of section 40 of the Asssssment Act, Revised Statutes of | Ontario (1927) Cap. 238 "Notwithâ€" standing anything in this ssction conâ€" tained, the income tax payable to any | mtfllcipality upon mine or mmmg; work liable to taxation under section| four of the Mining Tax Act, shall not : exceed one and oneâ€"half per centum of | the annual profits of the min> or minâ€" ing work upon which the tax payable| upder said section four is based, unless the amount of such annual profits exâ€" ceeds a sum which will yield $35,000 in respect of such income tax when an adâ€" ditional one per contum of such excess | annual profits shall be payable to the | mugicxpality." !

Struck by a motor car on Saturday night about 9.30 while crossing the main street in Schumacher, Mrs. Donâ€" ald K. MacDonald died almost inâ€" stantly. The car was driven ty Harvey P:‘rreault, 19â€"yearâ€"old Timmins youth. Ice on the windshield of the car is given as the primary cause of the acciâ€" dent. Perreault had been driving with the door of his car open in ordsr to see ‘he road ahead, h> told police, and when about 150 feet from the interâ€" past the west end of Schuâ€" macher, thought he had grazed a car.

This has now besn refused and it is believed that the battle for higher income tax from the mines is finished. The only reâ€" maining action possible is to apply to the "provincial government for a change in the reading of the mining tax act. Justice~â€"Kingstone=â€"of ~the=~Highâ€"Court of Justice for Ontario handed down a judgment in Toronto on Thursday that effectively disposes of the township of Teck case against Wrightâ€"Harâ€" greaves, Lake Shore and Teck Hughes. Although Dean Kester, counsel for the town of Timmins in the case against the Ho}linger, could not be reached, it is unlikely that the town will proâ€" ceeq any farther with its case against the Hollinger, which involves about $50,000 in taxes. The case for an increase in income tax from the mines of North@rn Onâ€" tario, begun by the township of Teck and the Town of Timmins some months ago, looks hopeless now.
