carry out muchneeded and long overdue major study of the Canadian tax structure and its effect an the ec onomy it is study that should have been undertaken long ago preferably by RoyalCommisslon The Tax Founda tion an independent organization will make an impartial study and on the Evidence of previous work by the Foun dation it will do thorough painstak ing job One can only hope that the people in government will give it the proper attention The director of the Foundation said recently Taxation is one or the most inescapable and pervasive influences in modern society Our knowledge of its effects is still primitive He went on to say that the effect of taxation on our competitive position in world markets is something which with our present knowledge we can only guess Trevor Moore vicepresident oi 1m perial Oil said recently What the times demand in my opinion is an ob jective study of our current tax struc turewithout regard for the interests of any individual taxpayer or group of taxpayers but which the intention of achieving full understanding of the consequences of our present system was delighted to learn that the Canadian Tax Foundation had announced that it would carry out major and basic study of this sort The point of such projectis that if we could findout how and where our taxes are adding to costs and limiting markets we might be able to shift these so as to improve incen tives This would help to expand pm duction and employment possibilities and possibly increase the nations tax revenues it must not be forgotten by either partner that government and bus iness are 5050 partners The latter ference of course is to the off the top revenue provided government by busi ness We are convinced that an enlightened revision of the tax structure would do more to lessen unemployment in this country thansany other single measure that can be thought of There are Can adianmade products for example on which taxes are three times as greatas on identical products from foreign lands where labor is cheap DéGaulles Three Choices ilrom The Christian Science MonitorBosion Mass Three areas or action lie before the de Gaulle regime now that the rebel lion of retired

even freer hand than he had week ago and he has already said Q5 Do COWSFRIENDSHH TOUR in an April copy of The Examiner of 1941 is the story of the Borden cow Elsie who was to visit Canada on program

of what form guarantees or security for the Europ ean community on Algeria will take of what provisions can bemade for the French naval base at MerselKebir and of where the borders between free Ai geria and the French developed oilrich Sahara liethese can make rough going for negotiators Within France the steps that the de Gaulle government may now feel are necessary to assure security will tend to impose on France temporary regime with neartotalitarian aspects Since the French believe that nothing endures like the provisional these temporary measures may cause profound misgiving The very necessity therefore that President de Gaulle may now feel for stern rule makes all the more urgent commitment to rebuilding of parlia mentary government But this is the one tasklnevltable if France is to have lasting internalpeacethat de Gaulle may rind beyond him The hopethat he will sense the need balances though precariously on the fact that General de Gaullo has used the near dictatorial powers given him in May1958 more rigorously against the extreme right wing than the moderate lert in French politics and for liberal aims throughout overseas territories Some sign that the de Gaulle lib eralism is not too aristocratic to ap preciate the possibilities of accentable rule by Parliament would now be special ly welcome It would offer the whole free world reassurance that

question in lnnlsfii Township it appears that the people of lnnlsfii iown shlp are requesting vote whether or not we have liquor outlets The question arises how long is it since we have had vote newer is approximately 51 years The mailed diebard dryl have had their way for 51 years This means that the youngest man who voted the wamen at that time did not have vote was years of age Therefore they are now approx imately 72 years of age and the rest are probably pushing up daisies The oldtimers here seem in feel that this is the proper pro cethirc while feel that tlia populace of today should govern their own way of life namely in vote for the wet or dry era MOST CHANGE According to all from 08 per cent of all places polled within the last five years have ruled anhange It is time that In
