Out of all this comes a drop in the mumber of people work- ing in the building industries and an increase in unemploy- ment. ' I would place the tax on new industrial machinery in exactly the same category. We are trying to encourage in- dustry to expand. We are trying to provide new employment. So we tell expanding indus- tries that they will have to add 11 per cent to their construction bills and then we tell them that if they want to become more ef- ficient in order to compete in overseas markets, and if they buy new machinery to do so, then we will tax that too. Trade Quick At Public Stockyards TORONTO (CP) -- Trading was active and prices were higher on steers, heifers and yearlings and bulls at the On- tario public stockyards this week. Good cows were iower with canner and cutter cows steady. Replacement cattle were steady. Veal calf prices were lower. Hog and sow prices were higher and lamb prices were lower.

We know that the construc- tion industry, with 600,000 men on the payroll, is one of the big- gest employers in the country. We know it is the kind of em- ployment that takes people off unemployment insurance and (puts them to work, and that in recent years it has been doing so to an increasing extent in winter as well as in summer. Now the Government comes along and hits that vital, essen- tial industry, from the employ- ment aspect, with a killing blow in the shape of an 11 per cent tax on building materials.
