J. Waldo Monteith, Conserva- tive financial critic, called it a "ho-hum budget" with only one really significant point -- gov- ernment spending was climbing 20 per cent. 'Is there no levelling off to the spending of this govern- ment?" The MP for Perth was the only opposition speaker to re- play after Mr. Sharp waded the. 12,000 words of his text in an 80-minute C peech The budget debate resumes next Tuesday after MPs have But spokesmen for other par- ties were quick to deliver their views in corridor interviews after the Thursday sitting was adjourned. Most took Mr. Sharp to task for not embarking on a more adventurous course. New Democratic Leader Douglas said Mr. Sharp was ready to accept an economic slowdown "both in terms of an- nual growth and employment" when he should have proposed steps to stimulate the economy. MEASURES NEEDED "We need measures to reduce unemployment and bring about price stability. Instead, the gov- ernment is reconciled to an in- evitable deterioration in our na- tional growth." A. B. Patterson, acting Social Finance Minister Sharp brought down his Centennial Year Budget, leaving personal and corporation income tax rates unchanged. A budget deficit of $7400,000,- 000 was forecast for the 1967-68 fiscal year, the highest since 1961-62. All drugs were freed of the 12-percent federal sales tax, effective Sept. 1, and the im- port duty on drugs was cut to 15 from 20 per cent, effective immediately, Prime Minister Wilson ar- rived for an overnight stay in the capital and talks with Prime Minister Pearson on the Middle East crisis. About 40 placard-carrying solve the problems facing Can- ada. The MP for Fraser Valley said quick action should be taken on reform of the tax and tariff structures but action was being delayed. "On both these major items, the minister pro- crastinates."" Robert Thompson, former So- cial Credit leader, added his opinion that Mr. Sharp's budget "puts off until tomorrow what we should be doing today." Gerard Laprise (Creditiste- Chapleau) jumped on the $740,- 000,000 deficit projected by Mr. Sharp. Terming it "a leapfrog budget," he said that although sales taxes were being trimmed from drugs and production ma- chinery, general tax increases would come in the fall after lease Thursday was made after 1,137 of the city's 2,000 second- ary school teachers tendered their resignations, effective) Aug. 31, Wednesday.. : set te yer cat or ae' poe no disruption of school during|because Ontario's sales tax TORONTO (CP)--The general]had quit at some schools.

"All in all, a singularly bland budget with only a few mildly redeeming features so far as in- dustry is concerned,"' said R. A. Engholm, president of the Cana- dian Manufacturers' Associa- tion. "Apart from the earlier-than- planned scrapping of the six-per- cent sales tax on production machinery, there is hardly any relief for manufacturing indus- try, which continues to carry one of the heaviest tax loads borne by any industry in the Western world.' | A. J. McKichen, general man-| ager of the Retail Association of Canada, described the budget as "stand pat'? and what the council had expected. He doubted whether the fi- nance minister. had much scope fer changes in corporate and personal income tax because of "the economic situation and be- cause we are on the eve of con- sideration of the Carter re- port." CALLS BUDGET HEADACHE C. A. Pollock, president of Dominion Electrohome Indus- tries Ltd., Kitchener, Ont., said it was "a real headache budget." He invited the minis- ter and his colleagues to sit be- hind the manufacturers' desk and attempt to meet the fac- tory payroll. The finance minister rejected suggestions that he remove spe- cial excise taxes on television sets, radios, phonographs, jew- elry and similar popular con- sumer goods. Mr. Pollock said to "'continue a war-time luxury tax which provides your primary competi- look for quick action later if the economy showed signs of need- ing a simulant. However, he added: "While we appreciate that the minister of finance sees the problem of determining priori- ties among government expendi- tures, nevertheless the chamber continues to be concerned at the trend toward ever - higher government spending and we are disappointed that the budget does nothing to alter this trend." D. S. Woods of the Automotive Parts Manufacturers' Associa- tion of Canada said the indus- try is delighted with the re- moval of the six-per-cent tax on production machinery. "This is the headline as far as we are concerned," he said. "We have been pressing for its removal since it was started by former finance minister Walter Gordon in 1963." . to date.
