Eli Torrie Examiner Published by Canadian 16 BayId Street Walls Publisher McPherson BATLleA APRIL $44 Woes For Small Business Predicted In TGovcrnmcnt spokesmen are putting the best facc possible on changes pro posed in the White Paper in the taxing of small businesses They give the ini pression that not many legitimate corp orations would be affecttd and that in any event the new rogulations would not he terribly onerous Hardly any small businessmen agree at least one to the point of actually getting out of business writes Harris in his monthly circu lar Clip Sheet The exal number of firms that would be affected is unknown but the Dow Jones financial news service reports that in 1967 there were 81386 businesses in Canada that earned less than 335000 of taxable income Finance department officials were quick to point out that not all of these businesses would aut omatically pay tax at the proposed rate of 50 per cent rather than the existing rate of 21 per cent The higher rate would apply only where the income of single proprietor or of the members of partnership were over $24000 Nevertheless it is the governments own figures which reveal just how many businesses there are in Canada that have taxable incomes of less than $35000 it is hardly believable that more than fraction of the 81000 exist as separately incorporated businesses simplyio take advantage of tax loopholes which is stated reason for the proposed tax change Prime Minister Trudeau has said that criticism of the White Paper is footless unless alternative sources of revenue are suggested This is very dictatorial attitude for what is supposed to be Chamber of Commerce studied plan to fillpart of bag for downtown parking Lodge Willard Kinzie was chairman and appointed following committee

the Just Society but on that point the Greater Toronto Business and Professional Federation represent ing 32000 individual businesses has suggested that the dual rate of corporate Lion tax be retained but that profit subject to the 21 per cent rate be re duccd to $28000 from $35000 To make up the revenue the Federation suggests that the proposed reduction in top tax rates be andoned That idea or some adaptation of it seems reason able After all there is no fairness in applying the same rate of tax on both the $24000ayear income and the 3240 000ayear income There are other White Paper criticisms being made by small businessmen One of these is defined in letter sent by wholesale newsdealer to the publishers and national distributors he has repre sented for some years This wholesaler in city of 25000 has sold out to larger competitor in nearby city of 85000 My reason for selling he eit plains in his letter to his suppliersis due to the White Paper on Taxation We people in small businesses feel that should this law came into being and we feel that it will it is going to make things most difficult for us to stay in business and end up with any cash pro fit after taxes We may show profit on our yearend statement but this profit is reflected in warehouse inventory rather than in actual cash and unfortun ately our gvernment will not accept warehouse inventory in payment of taxes This one small businessman may be acting prematurely or it might turn out that he is simply leading the parade DOWN MEMORY LANE YEARS AGO IN TOWN Barrie Examiner April 18 1955 Bouchey Conductor
