' I _ . l Following the announce.- lment of conscription or man }power, there has come from Imam quarters a demand for iconscription of -wealth, particu- ilarly the" taxation of incomes, a imethod of raising revenue which has `been adopted by most'of the coimtries engaged in this war. The United States, for example! is preparing to raise 750 mill- ions by a graded income tax. be. ginning with one and a half per cent. on incomes of $3,000, and ending with t_hirty-three' per cent .|on--incomes over $500000.

The Haileyburian says it` has been suggested that the ner- chants of Haileybury get to- gether" and cut, down their de- vlivery expenses. Probably fe teen delivery wagons with their horses and 'drivers are on the_ streets every day at an expense of at'least. $1,500 per month, or $18,000 per year. Now, if the merchants were to agree to a common delivery of say. two rigs, and cut out delivering parcels that customers are physically able to carry home, it would be a big saving of good money and. eventually {lead to lower prices on all commodities. A saving of say $1,300 per month in over- head expenses being borne now by our merchants would be .a-big item in the solution of' the high mstof living. As conditions are now, one baker, niilkman, butch- er or grocer d livers a parcel to a customer,~an immediately af-' ter along comes a rival butcher. .or baker, milkman, or grocer, and delivers a parcel next door. Many tripshare made by the var- ious deliveries over the same `i route that could -be covered just _ as effectively by one. Merchants, why not get together and evolve some syt,em?' Haileybury is not alone with the conditions refer- , red to.` They exist in otherVpla- ces which might well accept the l remedy offered. `it 1 "will never give us such road- `__ways as our two main business `streets should have. \Vhat' is `needed is_ a permanent pavement. g'l_`h`is would. give us a satisfac- itory roadway, with practically no maintenance expense, and the ltinie. Such `methods "Eff treatment\ sums that are annually frittered `away in repairs would go a. long_ .w:1,v towards paying the interest. `charges. At the present time the lconstruction of a pavement could not very well be unrlrtalien. hut [plans could` be made for taking lit up after the war, the expendi- ture on these `streets, in the .meantime, to he kept at a min. imum. By going ahead with the proposed repairs, the Council is deferring so much longer the! tiny when these streets will be` lproperly paved.
