Page 6 Wednesday, October 11, 1961 Business Leaders Eye Common Market Trends Canada's business men are all tak- ing a hard look at the negotiations which are likely to end by the United Kingdom joining the European Economic Com- munity. At the governmental level little is known publicly beyond a series of public speeches by Finance Minister Fleming and Trade Minister Hees warn- ing the British of the dire consequences to the Commonwealth if they joined E. E. C. The business community, however, has decisions to make. Its leaders are epplying their judgment to the problem of what to do next. The retiring president of the Can- adian Chamber of Commerce, Capt. Jo- seph Jeffery, for instance, points out that we are in danger of being hemmed in, and suggests that we study the impli- cations of the creation, over a period of of a North American Mr. Neil J.

Mr. vithout new initiatives on our part, Can- ada may find itself the only one of the world's highly industrialized countries which is not part of a wider trading area and which does not have a huge internal market of its own. The impli- cation of this is clear. Agricalture Minister Alvin Hamil- ton declared that the Government's ef- forts up to now had been concentrated upon attempting to explain to the United Kingdom the lasting effects to the Com- menwealth and the world of British entry into the Common Market, and to urge the British negotiators to do all in their power to liberalize the terms of the treaty of Rome under which the EEC operates. Mr. Hamilton can hardly hope that existing preferential tariffs will be main- He is, however, on sound ground when he em- phasizes the hope that the Rome Treaty's restrictive terms would be lessened. The tained, the Montreal Star notes. Common Market members might well reply that our country can apply for membership and the liberal trade terms available inside the area of the bloc. But membership carries responsibilities as well as rights of access. Among them would be the need to accept freely im- ports from Common Market members. The federal government's rejection of the British offer back indicates what our reply would be. of free trade a few years Nevertheless it the business community are is clear that leaders of our thinking in terms of new initiatives. These may well be forced on us whether we want to take them or not. Burden Already Heavy t One reason for Canada's growth Croprosperity during the fifties lay in 83508 that this country did not impose ag on capital gains. The absence of bious form of taxation is one reason Canada has been attractive to investors. New investment, domestic as well as foreign, is needed if industry is to expand and provide the job oppor- tunities needed by labor force. an ever-increasing Nevertheless, there are some who profess to see in the news from Britain that that country will have some sort of capital tains tax next year, reason for believing that this country should follow the example of the United King- dom. What such peoples forget is that capital is already severly taxed in this country under the Estates Tax Act. What they forget, too, is that, based on United States experience, the contribution of a capital gains tax to total revenue is very small -- in the case of the United States only about 2 per cent of total income tax collections.

Or have immi- grants lost their allure to Can- ada? More migrants have left Can- ada than have come here this vear. This bare statistical fact has set off a wave of soul searching in some sections of our press. But in official Ot- tawa this has not caused any moan of chagrin To a considerable extent, Can- ada's post-war immigration pol- icy has been operated on the "tap" principle. If the demand for workers exceeds the supply available in Canada, then our immigration pipeline is speeded up to yield more immigrants-- just as the mother of a hungry family might take more cans of beans off the groceteria shell. But if Canadians are having trouble In finding work, then the flow of immigrants is slowed down abruptly QUOTA NOT APPLIED Our immigration is not con. QUEEN'S PARK trolled like that in U.S.A. by a quota, and spokesmen for our immigration department have denied this "tap' principle on many occasions. But the clue lies in fluctua- tions in the number of officials and doctors made available in foreign countries to screen would-be immigrants. The tap is turned on by increasing that number: it is turned almost off by slowing down the processing of immigrants to a near trickle. This applies especially to countries such as Germany, Italy and Holland which have been large post-war sources of immigrants. British citizens enjoy the priv- ilege of migration to Canada-- as we do to Britain--with a min- imum of formality. The only brake which our immigration of- ficials can apply there is to warn any who seek their advice that there are no job opportuni- ties in their particular line. Our largest post-war immigra- tion flow was in the 12 months Frost Respected By Gallery Men Ry DON O"HEARN TORONTO--The gallery paid its respects to Premier Frost the other night It gave him some fishing gear and a farewell reception A little premature, of course But we just wanted to make sure he had our undying love be fore he got sick of going-away parties UNDERSTANDING Sincerely, however, anything that was said to the premier that night was truly meant Mr. Frost has been well-liked and respected by the press. (Which could be one of the secrets of his success.)

INSIDE YOU quite was The hu- he auto- tion, when 282.000 immigrants arrived on our shores. This in- the post - Suez exodus from Britain, and refugees from the Hungarian revolt, as well as large numbers from other coun- tries. The Liberal government of that time, which could have curbed that record flow, thus contributed to the large rise in unemployment in 1957 - 58, of which it had been forewarned by its advisers During the first months of this year, the balance of migration showed a small net outflow. This came after 17 consecutive years in which the inflow substantially exceeded the outflow. But in each of the prior 14 vears, from 1931 to 1944 inclu- sive, the balance of migration had been outward; in the five years 1926-1930 it was always inward; yet from 1921-1925 it was always outward. MIGRATION FLUCTUATES Thus this year's change in our migration pattern has not sur- prised, nor has it worried, of- ficial Ottawa. During the past century 'more than 8,000,000 im- migrants arrived in Canada; but fickle fortune has also drawn more than 7,000,000 Canadians out of the country Much of our outflow goes to U.S.A. In each of the past four vears, an average of 30.000 na- tive-born Canadians, and half as many immigrants to Canada, have moved to USA. Alas, many of the native Canadians are the products of our often better educational system, at- tracted by higher professional rewards. Many are senior citizens who choose to spend their pensions in the balmier climale of the southern states, and thus con- tribute to our amazing sfatis- tics of natural increase. For our high birth rate is raised higher by Quebec, but our death rate is artificially lowered by this emigration of older people One positive point does need explanation. Total immigration info, Canada last vear was only 104,000, the lowest figure in a decade. This drop was partly due to the closing of the fan to minimize the inflow of unskilled labor such as is already super- fluous here. It was also due fo the combination of more jobs at record wages in most western Furopean countries, plus the picture painted by some politi- cians of Canada as a country of gloom, doom, unemployment and misery.
