The backbone of Caui-.t(l:t': participation in this war will be linunci-.11 because of the vast amount of fooclstulfs, materials und military supplies that will be required from tl1i.~ cotmtry. True, much of these mitteri-.115 will be paid 101' by the Allies, but some of the British purchases in this country will have to be financed by Czmntin. and C'.n1udzt`s own program will D" extensive. It seems probable that at least 40 per cent. of the national income will be required in the next year to meet the cost of war and the other expenditures of all governments in Canada and to nance British purchases here.

Canada has come a long way since the Last war in developing a. scal system of equality in citizenship and its attendant responsibilities. As announced in the first win` budget. this war, in as far as Canada is concerned, will be fmanced as far as pmcticilble on a "pay as you go" basis. and paid for by all on the general basis of ability tr pay. It would be impossible to tax for the entire cost of swinging the prograni into action without tending to hamper iiiitiat-ive. lessen efficiency and retard the expansion of production and national income. Tax revenues. therefore, must be supple- xm -:;:c.. tiirough borrowing by means of domestic bont`. ilotations. - It may. too, be taken for granted that there will be no "tax free" bonds in this war. that will gravitate to a few holders and enable them tc minimize their income taxes. Nor will there be any duplication of the abnormal prots from war materials witnessed during the last war. The safeguard against this is the Excess Prots Tax. enacted at the special war session of the Can- adian Parliament. _ It is indicated that the forthcoming war loan will have bonds as low as sin in mmm...~....;,.. lA prince can mal; a bolted knight A marquis, duke, and that; But an honest. man's aboon his might,- ] Guid faith. he manna fa` that! n For a` that, and :1 that.

Starting Sunday evening, January 7, at 10 p.m., a. new radio feature will be broadcast over C.B.C.`s Ontario network. The voice of Andy Clarke, form- etr news editor of the Globe. will. through the co- operation of the Weekly Newspaper Association present. Neighborly News from Ontario weeklies." At this time of year, new radio programmes spring up like mushrooms as sponsors. stimulated by a desire to make 1940 bigger and better. search the entertainment eld to discover talent with a ``pull." Many of the new programmes will win warm friends throughout the country. while some. sad to relate. will represent a steady ``pull' on the sponsor's purse only. Presenting a new radio programme is like the premiere of a stage show: it is undertaken with a bravery and condence that is mingled with timidity and anxiousness. It may enjoy years of increasing popularity--yet it may die a puny infant. The public is an exact- ing and unyielding judge.
