That Hitle could equally have been applied to the almost Shakes- pearean tragedy being unfolded) up on the crest of Parliament) Hill, with Finance Minister Walter Gordon in the limelight, and "the strippers" as the mys- tery characters, v In his budget speech, Mr. Gordon rightly criticized a H method of tax avoidance which has become "increasingly prev- alent in recent years,"' This in- volves the distribution of cor- poration profits to shareholders without the payment of income tax, he said, adding: "It is an abuse which has become expen- sive to the public treasury." It is known in sophisticiated f:- nancial circles as "stripping." "T shall therefore propose that, effective tonight, the min- ister of national revenue be given power to look through so- called dividend stripping trans-| actions (and assess them for jn-) come tax)," declared Mr, Gor-| don, | WAS IT A LEAK?

The high hopes of: the new Liberal Gov- ernment collapsed like a pricked balloon within their pledged '60 Days of Decision." It was a decisive debacle, whose mem- ory will not fade in 60 times 60 days, There cannot be suspicion that Mr. Gordon deliberately leaked budget secrets. But it certainly seems that a newly-arrived Alice in the Won- derland of Parliament, in his in- experience he made some dis- astrous mistakes, His new de- vices, conflicting with the es- tablished ways of Parliament, were the cause of his downfall --for it seems probable, as this is. written, that he will be re- placed later as minister of fi- nance by Trade Minister Mitch. ell Sharp--who was preferred FIRST AID TO AILING HOUSE )|WORN LEATHER TABLE TOP f:'\finish a leather table top that QUESTION: How can I re- s in bad condition? ANS : Cover the leather surfi with a good quality enamel, in any desired color. Be sure to remove all trace of grease, wax, grime, etc., before applying the coating. REMOVING WAX QUESTION: How can I re- move wax from a vinyl floor? The wax on 'the filoor is chi; ping off in places and 80 would like to take it all off. ANSWER: Excellent floor wax-removing preparations are. widely available at supermar- kets, housewares and /hardware stores, Follow manéfactures label instructions for use care- fully, YELLOWED CABINETS QUESTION: My kitchen cab inets, both over the sink and below the sink, have turned a gga color, I think caused y the use of natural gas for our stove. The refrigerator has turned yellowish, too. I am con- sidering using oven cleaner to clean these, Is this safe? Or can you suggest anything else? ANSWER: The yellowish color is not due to natural gas but from cooking vapors in the kit- chen, which leave a grease film all over. Usually this can be re- moved and the surfaces cleaned with a scratchless cleanser or a hold cleaners. These are widely available at supermarkets and housewares dealers, Whichever product is used, be careful to follow label instructions. LEAKING COPPER TUBING QUESTION: The copper tub- ing joints of our hot water heat- ing system, leading up to the first floor, have been so! and resoldered, again / and again, but the solder does' not adhere well and we have sev- eraf leaks. Is there any thing else that can be used to remedy this situation? ANSWER: You fail to state the type of solder used on the joints, There are many types made and I suggest that a knowledgeable hardware dealer or plumbing supplies dealer, be consulted as to the type. Also highly important is the cleaning of the surface and being doubly sure that the leaks are amply covered and filled. I have had excellent luck fix- ing leaky pipes without using solder at all. Instead, I merely wrapped handy patch material, avialable in kits at most hard- ware stores. Very quick, very easy, Very effective. CRAYON ON WALLPAPER | QUESTION: What is the best!

To remove all this varnish either by sanding or removers would be a never ending job. Is there any primer that might make a borid be tween varnish and paint? ANSWER: The reason the paint flaked off varnish, as suming the surface had. been thoroughly cleaned first, was that paint won't adhere to a eer surface, There is 2 iquid preparation available at most paint dealers for dulling this gloss and improving the bonds of the new paint coating Follow label instructions for use, DULL PLASTIC WALL TILE .
