Eat- on, deputy minister of finance for Can- ada, with reference to income tax pay- ments is very enlightening. According to his figures, more than half of the total income tax collected by the feder- al government is paid by individuals who earn under $5000, that is, by what are often called the average working people. " Dr. Eaton went on to give some oth- "Br figures. He said that nearly 90 per w@ent of all income taxpayers earn less S¥han $10,000 a year; 95 per cent under $20,000 a year, and 98 per cent less #than $50,000 a year. Something like 72 "per cent of the income taxpayers earn dnder $5,000 a vear, but they paid 52 fer cent of the income taxes collected hy the government. There was a time, not so many years ago, when income tax was intended to depend on the top-monied people for Some Source Of ~ There are a lot of people in this world who are disturbed at the fact that they have reached middle age, and yet fame and fortune have eluded them. They have not been able to real- ize the dreams of youth. The rewards of life have passed them by, and as the years pass they feel it is not too late for them to achieve anything out- standing. To such people we can offer some grains of comfort. Research workers have been delving into the histories of some 400 men. Each one of them was the most outstanding statesman, paint- er, warrior, poet or writer, Of the group's greatest achievements in. their lives, 35 per cent came when the men were between 60 and 70 years old. Twenty-three per cent of them achiev- ed their greatest work and fame when they were between 70 and 80.

Mr. Marks during his term furnished a leadership that has been unexcelled. Being constantly conscious of the growing need of the people for hospital facilities, his kindly attitude and his administrative ability made the task easier for those members of the Board who had the privilege of working with him. The members of the Board of the General Hospital on Tuesday evening passed a resolution thanking him for his service. It might be said that the citizens of the city and district at large also owe him a debt of gratitude for a generous and efficient service given unhesitat- ingly during the last five years. Income Tax? the big part of its revenue. That has apparently changed greatly in recent years. Today it is quite obvious that people in the lower income brackets, or at least those earning less than $10,- 000 a year, are paying the lion's share of this taxation. It is not to be wondered at that the average workers have been asking why there has been no reduction in the in- come tax rate for their group, or some increase in the rate of exemptions al- lowed. It is the workers with under $5,000 a year income, and particularly those with fixed incomes which do not increase along with the cost of liv- ing index, who are hardest hit by in- flation and by income taxes. The de- ductions from their pay cheques are far more serious for them than the tax paid by monied people who have many more ways in which to claim deduc- tions that cut down the taxes they pay. Comfort per cent of them reached that goal when they were more than 80 years old, Summing it all up these figures show that 66 per cent of the world's greatest work has been done by men over 60 years of age. That should provide some comfort for those nearing middle age who have a feeling that it is too late for them to achieve anything worth while. They still have time for great accomplish- ments. It may be that with advancing maturity, they can use their talents to greater advantage. It may be that the coming of retirement, they may have time to do some of the things of which they have dreamed, but have never had time to fulfil. But one thing is sure; the above record knocks into a cocked hat the modern idea that a man is too old to do any useful work when he reaches the age or 6b: Bits Of Verse A FANTASY A little fairy went to play One pleasant moonlight night Dancing the havpy hours away Till morning's sober light Into a garden fair she went Where fragrant blossoms grew wuaffing from each some nectar sweet, Sipping the midnight dew She flirted with sweet willlam, An ivied wall she climbed, She hid in blooms of many kinds From buttercups she dined But ere the morning light returned A tragedy befell For a snapdragon seized her and There's nothing more to tell Stephen M.

Scotiand , Sco -- This evening finds us again in Aber- deen, for a one-night stay. The WR ay og seven-day tour, wi wi e us fo many parts of Scotl we have never seen, is over. Very appropriately, this tour is known as the "Glens and Tour", and as the name in- dicates, it will take us into much of the beautiful highland eountsy for which Scotland is world- famous. Already. on the first day, we have had more than a glimpse of the rugged wildness of the mountain scenery and the green ory of the glens running between e peaks. Our _starting point for the tour was Glasgow. Our kindly host of last night had us up bright and early, and after a hearty break- a NOT GOING ANYWHERE FOR AWHILE OTTAWA REPORT bt Capital Quiet During Crisis By PATRICK NICHOLSON Special Correspondent to T.e Dally Times-Gazetle OTTAWA -- This has been the world's quietest crisis-capital of the century during the post-elec- tion week of political crisis. Few residents of this city realized they were living through a history- making stalemate in conditions unmatched in our 90 years since Confederation. Three other world capitals-- Paris, Rome and Port-au-Prince --were going through the crisis of a disorderly change of govern- ment at the same time as Ottawa. The situation was far from being clear-cut here too, but unlike them Ottawa did not hit the front pages of the newspapers of the world by bitterness or bloodshed, The over- thrown leader, St. Laurent, did not have to flee the country as did Haiti 's ousted President Fignole, Our cast-off defence minister, Ralph Campney, was able to con- template writing his memoirs in peace, while his Halti an counter- part could only contemplate writ. ing them in prison. Out governor- general could pass a crisis eve- ning making a speech to the Royal Society's annual dinner; but Italy's President Gronchi and France's President Coty had to spend their evenings trying to find some political leader who would form a cabinet. The oly violence in Ottawa was the verbal violence of disagree- ment at the private meetings of the inner circle of Liberal strategy planners, No plotters were shot down in hot blood, but their plots were demolished in cool calcula- tion, COOL AND CALM These plotters sought a peaceful coup d'etat within the Liberal party. They sought to throw out a now redundant "Uncle Louey,"" and to replace him--with- out the convention which is our normal democratic process--by Mike Pearson. They wanted that new party boss to reconstitute the shattered Liberal cabinet, to re- tain the powers of government, and then to summon Parliament and seek a majority through sup- port of splinter groups and inde- pendent members, This plan appealed to some of the cabinet minister who retained their seats in the election debacle, notably Newfoundland's Jack Pickersglll and Saskatchewan's Jimmy Gardiner. It appealed equally to some of the defeated cabinet ministers, who saw in it their only hope of receiving their share of the spoils of office: a senatorship for Renfrew's Doc McCann, a judgeship for Mani- toba's Stuart Garson, an ambas- sadorship for Quebec's Bobby La- pointe, and so on, from Santa Claus' capacious bag of patronage. But St. Laurent vetoed this plan of the defeated Liberal supermen, and those with inside knowledge realised that the crisis was over, even though the indecision contin- ued. St. "Laurent clearly saw the gumbo at the end of that wrong path--a feeble government dom- inated by the steam-roller French- Canadian majority within the Lib- eral party--to be followed inevit- ably by utter and final disintegra- tion of that party as a nationwide force, During those days of crisis, John Diefenbaker, the prime min- ister presumptive, went fishing at Lac La Ronge, cool and calm. HIS MOTHER'S RECORD Then he went to Saskatoon to see his 83-year-old mother in hos- pital--a fine old Scots lady who is, I believe, the first mother in our history to live to see her son win an election and qualify as Canada's first Minister. And so back to Ottawa to a hero's welcome at the airport at the unheroic hour of 7:30 a.m. Looking younger, fitter and more confident, and acting gayer than for a long time past, John Diefenbaker reminded me that it was exactly six months since he had been chosen leader of the Conservative party. What a sen- sational anniversary. "How are your children?" he asked me, "Not very full of admiration for you," I replied. And he seemed a trifle hurt by my comment so capable of being misunderstood. But I quickly added: 'They saw those pictures of you fishing at Lac La Ronge, and were not im- pressed by your catch. Vicky (that's my five-year-old daughter) said she had caught bigger fish than yours, which were not even as long as the*peak of your funny cap. "Everyone makes fun of me to- day," he replied, 'Olive, where is my silk hat? IT am going to Gov- ernment House tomorrow." But he added, killing what seemed a big news story: "To the garden party." FOR BETTER HEALTH Simple Rules Cited Prevent Athlete's Foot HERMAN N. BUNDESEN, MD TINEA Pedis or Epidermophy- tosis are twc villains you're apt to meet up with at any public swimming I this summer. You'll probably recognize them by another name--athlete's foot. A fungus infection, athlete's foot can be caused by a number of mold-like organisms that can be found just ahout anywhere. The favorite spot for these fungi, however, is a moist floor such as is found about pools or in shower rooms. HEALTHFUL ACTIVITIES Swimming and competitive sports are healthful activities. 1 certainly encourage any of vou who are able to take advantage of them, However, just becaue you like to swim, golf o. play basketball, doesn't mean that you have to come down with a bad case of ringworm of the feet. Don't place all your trust in those shower room and poolside foot baths. They contain fungi- cidal solutions but generally are not too successful in combating fungus. LOSE THEIR STRENGTH For one thing, the solutions lose their strength very quickly For another, they are not strong enough to kill ail the fungi. an) way, Il they were, they would take the skin right off your feet. The best way to prevent ace quiring a case of athlete's foot is to follow these simple rules: 1-Dry your feet well with a Union Boss Hits Women WASHINGTON (AP) -- James Cross, Bakers Union boss, got a chance Wednesday to reply to fast, d ited us at the bus term. inal from which we left. On board the comfortable and spacious motor coach, fitted with high win- dows, and a window in the roof, were 27 passengers, two short of its full complement. This group will be destined to live together for the seven-day tour, THROUGH MINING AREA We left Glasgow by way of Bish- ropriggs, and went on through Kirkintilloch, Kilsyth and Denny to Stirling. This was almost entirely mining country, with the high slag heaps and chimney stacks prom- inent on the landscape. It was not particularly lovely, and one mar- velled at the efforts of the miners to beautify the small patches of round, enclosed by low walls, in ront of their cottages. After Stirling, the picture changed. As we approached Stir- ling, we saw the grey mass of the famous castle perched on the side of a high hill. A little further on was the massive and picturesque Wallace Monument, erected in honor of one of Scotland's heroes in the 13th and 14th century battles with England, Sir William Wal- lace. Beyond Stirling we crossed the winding River Tay, and had a half for morning coffee at the holi- day resort of Bridge of Allan, Then we began to rise into the Grampian Mountains, Dunblane, the home of the well-known Queen Victoria School for sons of soldiers and sailors killed in action. As we passed the school we saw the boys out on the cricket fields. We went on into the hills north of Crieff, Highland Tour and down through the love! "Sma' Glen of Amulree", ovals the road wound around between the hills. The last time we saw this famous glen it was in the month of August, When the hill sides were ag with the of the heather, In June, a a ale the masses of heather are still brown, but the clumps of golden gorse and broom more than make up for this by the color they to the landscape. The "'sma' glen" winds around along the bank of a rushing mountain stream, and here the camera was worked over- time to catch Fimpses of its glor- ious beauty, At the end of the glen we came upon Dunkeld, a gem of a town nestling in an opening in the mountains. And then there was a stop at Blairgowrie for lunch, THE DURL'S ELBOW In the afternoon we saw even more of the rugged wildness of the mountains, They towered over the road as we went through Glen- shee, On the top of some of them we saw large patches of snow still filling the mountain gullies. At the Spittal of Glenshee we saw the ruins of a noted hotel which was completely destroyed by fire only a week ago. Only the stone walls were left standing, and inside them was a mass of charred rubble. Then we began to climb a nar- row and tortuous winding road. We were going up the famous Devil's Elbow, the highest road in Britain. The motor coach labored up the jteep inclines, with their notorious hairpin turns. It was for- tunate we met no other traffic coming down, for there was scarcely passing room. Actually, these were anxious moments for the passengers, who looked from their windows down the steep hill- side dropping off almost sheer down to the valley below. At last we were at the top, past the Devil's Elbow. By the side of the road was a placid mountain stream. Alongside of it were two pails, and beside them a sign, "Water -- Let Your Engine Cool", This was an indication of the strain of the long climb on motor engines, BACK TO DEESIDE We crossed the boundary be- tween Perthshire and Aberdeen- 'QUEEN'S PARK charges that he beat . misused union funds, and approved sub-standard wage contracts with baking interests who allegedly loaned him $100,000. Cross, international president of the union, pledged Tuesday to an- swer every "pertinent" question a Senate rackets investigating committee hearing today. He gave the promise in exchange for the right to have accusing witnesses cross-examined. Robert Kennedy, the committee counsel, said Cross will face ques- tions about major accusations such as these: ; 1. That Cross and hired 'goons' invaded the hotel room of Mr, and Mrs. Nathan Ehrlich at the un- go jon's international convention in San Francisco last October and beat them both. Ehrlich, president of New York bakers local No. 50, had lined wp with forces trying to oust Cross from leadership of the 160,000-member bakers and com- fectioners organization. 2. That Cross dipped into the union's treasury for thousands of dollars to finance a relationship with a equnvicted Los Angeles pros- titute and beat her when she gave another man a diamond ring bought with union funds. 3. That Cross "misused" large sums of union funds for personal purposes, as alleged by Curtis Sims, who was suspended as union secretary-treasurer after he pub- licly voiced the accusations that brought on the committee's in- quiry. The suspension resolution accused Sims of making "'un- founded" charges and bringing the union into disrepute. Prospects | In Canada Best For U.K. LONDON (CP)--Canada offers British businessmen the best long- term prospects in the world. That is the opinion expressed in an official British government pub- lication--Economic and Commer- cial Conditions in Canada-- just re- leased by the United Kingdom board of trade, a government de- partment. It was written by Gordon Bowen, senior British trade commissioner in Canada. "The Canadian market is cer- tain to grow as the population and wealth of the country increases," says Bowen, " If UK. exporters are not prepared to take the op- portunities which it offers, others will." Throughout the 316-page booklet, Bowen emphasizes that despite the "notable expansion" of Cana- dian manufacturing in the last 15 years, the volume of imports is steadily increasing and that Can- ada, as an exporting country her- self, has "no animus against im- ports." towel after every bath or sh Use a clean, dry, soft cloth to pat -- not rub -- the skin between the toes until it is completely dry.

(CP)--Rev. Alan Walker, Australian evangelist says that contrary to some opinions, there is no religious revival in America. "And anyone who says there is must be a bit daft," said Mr. Walker, who is visiting professor at Boston University School of Theology. He was speaking Monday to some delegates to the summer school of religion being held this week at the University of West- ern Ontario, "True," he said, "there is a re- vival of interest in the church. . . .

Among them: That the two-shift system should be looked into for secondary schools. A Hamilton hotel had its liquor licence suspended for permitting book-making on the premises, It was the first such ion by strictions to be put on use of Crown lands for mining. There was some bitterness before legis. lation was thrown back this win- ter. Possibility that the scope of the committee would be extended beyond mining lands is not con- sidered likely.

There we had our Stop for tea, Up to that fime we been enjoying the most ideal sunny weather, But as we started off again after tea, the dark clouds began to settle down over the hills, few miles on we saw Balmoral in the midst of glorious woods skirting the River , It was a short distance away, but after a brief zlimpse of the whole facade of the castle, we saw only its towers over the trees, On its broad lawn, we saw a cricket match in progress, but it could not have lasted long, because in a few mi the h d and the rain came down in tor- rents. Strange to say, on all the add visits we have made to Deeside in recent years, we have alw. been there in the midst of rain.

So with the skies again bright, we rolled on into Aberdeen and down Union street to the Gloucester Hotel, where we had made pur headquarters the first three days of this week. It has been a most impressive day, not only because of the wild beauty of the country through which we passed on our trip through the Perthshire highlands, but also because of the free and easy cameraderie of the members of our tour party. They seemed a Rapper lot and it has not been dif ficult to get acquainted with them, We imagine from the contacts we have already made, that we will have formed some new and worth- while friendships before the week is over. And our driver, a short, rotund Scot with the name of Archie Mc- Gugan, has told us that by far the best of the tour is yet to coo», So we are looking forward to storie ing off again tomorrow morning, with the Royal Burgh of Inverness as our goal, IAC ANNOUNCES APPOINTMENT R. A. WEMP Industrial Acceptance Corporation Limited announces the appointment of R. A. Wemp, formerly Managet of the Kenora Branch, es Manager of their Oshawa Branch. Mr. Wemp replaces D. R. Simard who has been appointed Manager of the Chatham Branch, the Liquor Licence Board. A pa- tron of the hotel had been con- victed twice for taking bets in its public rooms, The board recog- nizes this is tough for a hotel to control, so has been lenient in the past. CONTRIBUTE TO FUND The government agreed to con- tribute toward the Skead Relief Fund. The disaster (Probably amount of contribution $25,000) was the smallest it has recognized as such to date. A Supreme Court jury in Tor- onto suggested the Highways De- partment should study the system of issuing "temporary" driving permits. The recommendation came after a student-driver killed a pedestrian. The department doesn't know of any other way people could learn to drive than under the present system. An important court decision de- cided that the Legislature had er- red in giving powers to the Min. ing Commissioner. This was a hot topic on the House when it was put through a year ago. Opposit- ion members said at the time that the government was asking the house to exceed its authority. It is expected the decision will be ap- pealed to the Supreme Court of Canada.
