Elir Harrie Examiner Published by Canadian Newspapers Ltd 16 Bayileld Street Barrie Ontario PAGE FOUR MONDAY to mo EDITORIAL MustHove Profit Or Else Industrial Progress Ends The Canadian Manufacturers Associ ation has issued its latest survey of the proportion of the dollar of sales that is made up of profits This survey has been conducted every year since 1948 It now shows consistent pattern And the pat tern reveals that the mean average of those 12 year amount to 558 cents of ev ery sales dollar The survey covered very large sec tion of Canadian industry It included 1043 companies in all10 provinces These companies had net sales of nearly nine nndahalf billion dollars and employed in the aggregate 462000 people in the 12 months of 1959 gt Many people might suppose that they are paying much more than that when they make their purchgises But in fact the latest figure covering 1959 shows that profits were slightly below average being down to 51 cents This ploughing back of profits is of importance not only to the companies concerned but to the growth of Canada It means that old machinery is being modernized It means that plants are her lng enlarged or new plants are being buioi It means that modern methods are helping to control costs by increasing ec ollomlcal output it means that opport unities for employment both in factories and offices are being maintained or mul tiplled Another interesting fact is that the taxes paid by the companies to the fed eral and the provincial governments amountedflto 42 cents in each dollar of salesThls means that these taxes were nearlytwlce as much as the shareholders received If these governments are going tobe regarded as representing the pub lic at large this means that these in dilstries paid nearly twice as much to the publicas they didto their investors com ments The Montreal Gazette Eittravagantor exorbitant profits may become nntlsoclal in character But the policy of trying to keep profits in general down as much as possible as though theywere against the public interest is policy that runs the risk of discourag lng the saving and investment of money of reducing the proportion of company profits available for ploughing back ginto modernization and expansion of in dustry and of narrowing the source from which governments receive so large part of public revenue Opinions oi Other Newspapers THE aovlnronvvicrs

despite the attack it managed to turn so that it never came closer than 30 miles to Soviet soil According to this statement the entire action took place over international waters which by law are as

Officials here say thattherc is no way of verifying the refugees stories and that many of them may be exaggerated They add however that it is clear that guerilla warfare is going on in many parts of Tibet varying in intensity from place to place With Chinese control over Tibet now virtually complete except for the barren and inaccessible western regions there is be lieved to be no possibility of the guerillas doing more than harass the Communist army and its rearguard of Chinese civilian sel tlcrs From reports filtering through to Darjeeling this appears to be the Tibetan aim and there is no

previous two fiscal years our government borrowed much new money to meet its large defi cits This increased interest rates These high interest rates deter mine in large part the amount of our income and other federal taxes They also set the pattern for the price of money to our provinces and municipalities We must thcreJore pay more provin cial and municipal faxes it will for example cost more to retire the yearly debenture payments running from 10 to 25 years on sidewalks sewers roads achOols etc or to pay off any new debt like mortgage mismanagement of debt would not be so bad if ils effects were cit only in the year or so in which such mismanagement took place but it carries forward as penalty year after year Money rates are too high for the home huildcr for industry for the buri ness man and even for the three levels of government This cause unemployment cuoss DEBT INCREASED Our gross debt in the last two fiscal years increased by little over $2000000000 in the same time the carrying chargeson our debt made up mostly of in creased interest have jumped precipitously Last year they were up $106000f00 and this year 5940001100 over last year This means that the extra aggregate charges for years is $300000 000 By next year this govern ment will have this aggregate over 3500000000 since coming into power This represents well over $10 extra interest for the head of each family in Canada protested the Victory Loan Conversion of 1930 and main island that it would bring higher internst rates for everybody but the Minister made light of this and said that money would be obtained at better advantage That conversion aimed to con vcrt 55400000000 Victory Bonds into two short term on two long term bonds Over 91000000000 of those same bonds are up again to be dealt with next year That conversion plus extra interest costs us over $70000000 year With so many bond being cunlt varied and old the market has had indigestion ever since Peo ple who bought the long term bonds saw them go down nearly 20 per cent and look big losses if they needed to sell them for cash Even the government controlled unemployment insurance fund bought them and look loss of many millions of dollars in order to get cash to pay unemployment benefits That fund now has about 11 of what it bad when this govv erument took office and is fast approaching the state of jeopardy in spite of the fact that this gov ernment has increased contribu tions by about 30 per cent from employers and employees FORCED T0 BORROW Ever since the conversion loan the Minister was forced to borrow money mostly on short term In the fiscal year 193859 there were over 39000000000 of bonds con verted or sold and last year over z500000000 Also the treasury bills outstanding which must be dealt with frcqently are up to point over 52000000000 Many of the short term bonds must be de sirable toxwiso in order to sell case in point is the 3125000000 of per cent bond sold last Sep tember at $9465 to mature in 19 month They were advertised to return 661 per cent but corpor ation paying around 50 per cent income tax would have over five per cent clear on its investment after income tax corporation would require bond at par pey ing over 10 per cent to do as well The paint is here too much churning about of our national debt The government got itself into this mess by the conversion loan and new high borrowing The long term bonds it sells at 59 per cent or better have no callable rea ture The finance ministe is ticing his own hands and those of future governmean that might call in these bonds and issue new one at lower interest rate when possible The former government had this feature even in the three per cent Viclory Bondswhy not have it in bonds paying almost twice the interest The conversion loan was under taken because so much debt was overhangingthe market in eight years The overhang for the next eight years is again high in the meantime we Canadians can get set to pay more
