REPORT FROM PARLIAMENT Expect Start By MICHAEL STARR, M.P. Ontario Riau» The estimates for 1965-56 have been tabled in the House of Com- mons. These estimates show the first reduction in annual spending in seven years. They show a re- | compared with the estimates of | 1054-55. The reduction is approx- | imarely 3.3 per cent, The total of | these estimates 1s $4,360,266,000. i In the main the reduction has been made in the department of defence to the amount of $133,000,000 and the remainder of the cut is found in the estimates of various other departments. These reductions do not necessarily mean tax cuts. Taxation changes if any will be disclosed in the bi t later dur- ing this Session of Parliament. In the estimates we find an item under public works for the Whitby Post Office amounting to $150,000, On checking with the departmental architects I have been advised that ie the total coast of the building. The actual construction of the new post office is expected to be com- menced sometime during the pre- sent year. There is also an item amounting to $83,000 placed under Oshawa for the re-dredging of the harbor and this amount is expected to be used during the coming year. DEFICIT LIKELY The information available at the | present time shows that it is now | certain that Finance Minister Wal- ter Harris will report a deficit in his first budget which is due this spring. The same sources indicate that he was about the last fb enter- tain hopes that somehow or other it might be possible to wind up the year with revenues and expendi- tures in an approximate statg of balance but he is now persuaded that it cannot be done. In a recent speech made by Mr. Harris to a Toronto area service club he stated that the only hope of lower taxes lay in reduced de- fence spending. It seems significant because of his statement that the estimates as tabled show a sub- stantial reduction in defence spend- ing and hove is held that tax re- ductions will be made when the budget is brought down. However another minister of the cabinet addressing a civic Board of Trade in Vancouver stated that spending was being pared although perhaps not enough to justify tax reductions on the scale Canadians would like to see.

FAMILIES INCREASING The Bureau of Statistics says This Year On Whitby Post Office that family formation in Canada is increasing but the average size is staying about the same, little bet- ter than three people per family, The Bureau discloses in an an- nual estimate that there were 3, 595,000 families in Canada at June 1st, 1954 and they averaged 3.7 persons. This was an increase of 3.4 per cent since the start of pe cent since the same date in Within recent days a boatload of New Zealand lamb has arrived in Canada unfortunately at the time when the Canadian lamb is being marketed, Because of the ship ment the price of lamb has dropped considerably and as a result the Canadian producer has had to take a loss. It has even affected the marketing of the Canadian lambs. In reply to ques- tions in the House of Commons the minister of agriculture admit- ted that he was aware of the fact that lamb was being brought into Canada but he was not sure June, 1953 and an increase of 5.3 | whether it was still continuing to stronger than the local hockey play- ers on the offensive.

Scorers for Bowman- ville were Dickens (2) Don Masters (2), Barwick and Girardi. another home - and - home with Whitby, serits come in and that he had received no complaints, BLAMES U.S. PRICE The following day in the House of Commons he admitted that he had had a communication from the livestock people in Toronto who complained about this New Zealand lamb in their letter. He | went on to quote figures stating that Canadian lamb had been marketing at 23% cents but be- cause of the 20 cent price at Chi- cago the Canadian price had to drop down to the same figure in order to maintain a level be- cause of the imports of lamb from the United States. This is the only explanation he was willing to give and would not admit any fault on the part of the Government in allowing cheaper price lamb to come into Canada as competition to the Canadian pro- duced lamb at a time when they are ready for marketing. The Debate on the Spéech from the Throne is gradually winding up and we expect to vote on the sub- d ts the d t and the main motion shortly.
