E. Paul, Kedive, Sask. Queen's Park Arena BY THE WATCHMAN farmers pay taxes â€" when they have any money to pay them with â€" but one never reads or hears about a farmer going on relief. Y'et the taxes the farmers pay go toward sup- porting that section of the population which is unemplayed. And if there is any class that can less afford to pay taxes it is the agricultural class. AH this leads up to the problem of what is to be done with municipalities, or individuals within municipalities, that fritter away public funds under the guise of disbursing relief. If anyone has a justifiable complaint to make about tie chiseller and para- sites who live on the public purse, it is the farmer who keeps on paying in- to the public coffers, until it becomes so painful that he is rendered pract- ically numb. And, don't forget, the farmers don't even have the consol- ation of knowing that the money they pay ill taxes goes to help some of their fellow farmers who might have fallen en evil days and become a pub- lic charge. Somehow or other, farmers just don't become charges on the state. 'I'hey may not have seen any real money for years; their pants may be patched in a dozen places and their farm etiuipment obsolete, but they still keep on going under their own power, even though a bit wobbly. It is encouraging, in view of all the circumstances, to find that the Ontario government is taking a strong stand with extravagant municipalities. A- part altogether from political influ. ciices. it is refreshing to find that the Welfare department does not intend to sit idly by and allow any niunioi- luility to so loosely administer relief that families who drive their own lars and have bank accounts are able to secure assistance. The line of I least resistance would be for the pro viiicial authorities to say nothing and perhaps try and straighten things out secretely, but this is not a correct way. If a municipal government ha.s the cool nerve to take government funds and then disburse them waste- fully, then that municipality should be shown uf) and puni- As has been stressed l)efore in this coluinn, taxpayers, whether they be faimers or urban dwellers, have a heavy enough load to bear providing PIN WHEEL COOKIE.S 'a cup shortening '••; cuji white sugar Volk of oUf egg :> tablespoons milk 1 'l' cups flour ':; teaspoon baking powder V)i teaspoon salt 1 siiuai'e melted unsweetened choc- olate.

Income tax collections in Canada lor the first six months of the fiscal year increased by $10,000,000 which is nice to read about even if one cannot claim any personal credit for such a satisfactory showing. the money for legitimate relief cases without being imposed upon by men and women who see in the relief si- tuation an opportunity to chisel in and get food, clothing, shelter and even cash, when they have absolutely no claim to it. Not even the most par- tisan opponent of the present regime can with reason point the finger of criticism at Hon. David Croll for tak- ing a strong stand with poorly-gov. erned municipalities. It all boils down to this: The tax- payer sends his contribution to the provincial treasury. The treasury sends it out again to the nunicipali- ties and the latter disburse it upon those on the relief rolls. Every chiseller, every man or woman who obtains relief by what amounts to fal.se pretences, is making the load of the taxpayer just so much more difficult. That is why a government no matter whether it be Liberal or C-oijservative, is to be commended when it takes quick and effective ac- tion to stamp out waste, inefficiency and extravagance in the spending of public monies. And those vvho should be more sat- isfied than any other class of tax- payer are the farmers who pay the shot and keep off the relief lists. S. S.
