His Wor- ship referred to the unfavorable situ- ation caused by the large amount of tax arrears and while he suggested that prompt measures would be taken to collect from those who could af- ford to pay their taxes, but were not doing so, the city would never- the-less be forced to reduce all esti- mates to the lowest possible point. The city council was not acting in a co-ercive manner, he emphasized, but was rather seeking cu-operativu, Similar views were expressed by Ald. P.

CANBERRA MADE GREAT CITY IN AUSTRALIAN BUSH Commonwealth Capital Has Some Remark:ble Features Canberra, Australia. (By The Canadian Press)--Canberra, the Cap ital of Australia, is a city literally made to order, It has been the seat of the Government of the Common. wealth instead of Melbourne only since May 9, 1927, The visitor who arrives at the rail way station of Canberra by night and sees from his carriage window acre upon acre of flashing lights imagines that he is entering a huge metropolis It is only when he hears the bleating of sheep from lis hotel window the rext morning that he realizes that he is still in the Australian bush. The lights that he has seen come not for most part from houses but from de- solate fields. They are there not to mark out the city as it is, but as jt will be in 50 years time. Only Beginning Canberra as the capital city of the Commonwealth has hardly begun. "The Parliament House," opened three years ago by the Duke and Duchess of York, is a temporary structure set down on a mountain plateau, "The Albert Hall" will no doubt one day be the centre of swirl ing traffic, but at present it stands isolated on a desert of scrub and rock. The General Post Office and the shopping cer 're will one day be linked together by fine boulvards, but at the moment they are separated by two miles of grazing land. Consti- tution-avenue will in time deserve its name; at present it is a country lane leading to the church, A Quaint Church The parish church is the quaintest sight of all. It was built early in the last century by convict labor, and for generations the only worshippers there were the Campbell family, who owned the local sheep station. Now each Sunday it is packed to the doors with the Commonwealth leaders, In a hundred Jean no doubt it will be Sompletely emmed in by streets and shops. nberra in places is no more than the round plan of a city, Opposite the Parliament House there will one day stand out in glittering white the Capitol, but-at present its site is only marked by a fountain stone; the hill! behind will in time bear a great war memorial; at present it only the feed- ing ground of sheep.

Plumptre first woman chairman of the Finance Committee said that some people were sugesting that teachers be not given an increase this vear, "My own opinion is that there is a moral obligation -- if not a legal contract--binding upon the Board to pay these increases," she went on "Should we, however, decide to econ- ahize by not ing them, we should save about $300,000 at the expense of the teachers who are the least able to afford it, While paying in rull those whose salaries haye already reached the maximum, If the Board must economize at the expense of the teaching staff, it would be at least fairer to pay all scheduled increases and then ake a percentage reduc- tion on the salaries of all teachers a- like.

Mrs. Vlumptre stated that food is 12 per cent. cheaper und clothing five per cent, and that is cqual to an automatic salary increase. "It cost us, last year, over $11,000 merely to provide rooms for meetings and activities within the school | rem- ises; the provision and maintenance of swimming facilities is extremely costly," she said, "Yet I do not see any demand that the schools should cease to give these services to the children or should change' their at- titude towards community activities, rather is the reverse true; but | sug- pest in all fairness to the Bodrd of Education that those who call the tune should not object to paying the piper NO REDUCTION IN RURAL PHONE RATES pa Edmonton, Alta, -- Alberta's gov- erument-owned telephone system, for the first time in four years, will re. cord a deficit in its operations ac- count this year, Hom V.
