Assaulted Rooming House Owner An assault upon George Vartenuik by Leeman A. Fletchett was made in front of Constable Barlow of the Timâ€" mins force. Although Fletchett pleadâ€" ed not guilty in police court on Tuesâ€" day the evidence against him was too strong. Mr. Vartenuik said that Leeman brought a bed in his place one night and then did not pay for it the next. When he did not pay his twentyâ€"five conts for the third night he called the police. When hbe tried to assist the policeman get Fletchett out of bed the accused jumped up and struck him on the mouth. The evidence was corroâ€" borated by that of Constable Barlow and the deferdent sentenced to a fine of $10 and costs or thirty days in jail. Mr. Charrette told the court that the fracas in which he was assaulted occurred in the Grand Hotel.

Dr. Minthorn said that he treated Mr. Charretts for a bad black cye and a fractured nose. Then followed a long string of witâ€" nesses for both the prosecution and deâ€" fence. As Mr. Charrette could not positively identify the man who struck him the case evolved into a matter of identification.

Testifying in his own defence, Mr. Alexander said that he had twelve mining claims in Turnbull Township. The man and the woman woere friends of his from Val d‘Or and the other man their friend. Name of the third man was Murray Tremblay, he said. While they were drinking some beer the police made their early morning entry. Ninetyâ€"four pints of ale were found and 48 pints of lager beer. One full bottle of whiskey was discovered. Asked why he had such a large amount of beer on hand the tenant said that he was having a party on Sunday evening for the men who worked with him on his mining claims. Sergeant DesRoches continued. The accused could not name the people in the house nor did they know his namse. In Alexander‘s tbed room were four botâ€" tles of whiskey, He said the whiskey belonged to a roomer, Camille Roy. sergeant Devine told of an earlier raid on Sunday. He and two constables arrived at the house at 2.35 a.m. on SBunday morning. There was one man in the front room. He appeared to have no beer, although some which had been hidden, was found. A man and woman were on the chesterficld. In one bedroom was a man sleeping. His name was Roy. Inside were five men and three woâ€" men ..The accused was at a wash basin. Near it were many glasses which smellâ€" ed of beer and liquor. The proprietor said that he was havyâ€" ing a birthday party. "A birthday party," said the Magisâ€" trate. ‘"That makes three of them."

FLOOR POLISHERS® AND VACUUM CLEANERS FOR RENT 10 CEDAR sTREET NORTH Public expenditures required carefui analysis on the part of those who from time to time requested the government to undertake new projects. Mr. Crerar reminded his hearers that in the fiscai year before the outbreak of the Great War, Canada raised from taxation $112,000,000. The government was critiâ€" cized then, and the sum was regarded as a staggering one. At the start of the war the net debt of the Dominion was $336,000,000. Today the ccuntry reâ€" quires to raise $500,000,000 annually to conduct the affairs of the nation, and the debt has grown to $3,200,000,000. Pensions Take Millions Of the huge amount needed yearly, no less than $133,000,000 is to service thke debt, even although the rate of interâ€" est is low. The war added over $2,000,â€" 000,000 to the debt, and in 1930 the deâ€" pression came and diminished Canâ€" ada‘s revenue from trade and increasei costs of administration. Pensions and hospitalization of exâ€"service men took Responsibility of administration restâ€" ed on every member of the body politic. Every citizen over 21 is entitled to say how tae government should be carrica on, and his concern is to scee that taoas democratic system works and is imâ€" proved. Unfortunately there were many who could not answer intelligently statâ€" ed questions as to government routine, and presentâ€"day problems required a lot of thought on the part of all the people if they were to be solved. There had keen a struggle between two philosophies of government, and although a system of force and dictatâ€" orship had been evolved, there was also a new conception of democracy, which was now approaching the crossâ€" roads. There was no doubt that deâ€" mocracy had brought human progress to a higher state of efficiency. Many achievements of recent years were dus to the dsmocratic states, particularly in sceigcnce, art and literature. Opporâ€" tunities were given to all under democâ€" racy, where individual effort was curâ€" tailed in the totalitarian states. Canada, with a population of only a little over 11,000,000, had attained a degres of prosprrity unequalled despite the difficult times. It stood fourth in exports, and through intelligent deâ€" velopment of its resources, was sixth among the nations in trade. New Partics Mooted Thr world had not yet recovertgu from the economic disturbances of the last few ycears, and in some countries there was a trend toward the dictatorâ€" ship idea. Germany had turned her back on the former form of governâ€" ment, had abolished freedom for the individual, freedom of the press and of religion. Under democracy, however, every one can have a say. There were sizns of new parties being organized, but Mr. Crerar asserted he was not worried by their appearance. It only reflected the desire for somsthing betâ€" ter, and most likely some good results would accrue. War Leaves Impact The world, said the speaker, was passâ€" ing through a troubled period. The Great War had leoft an impact ‘upon financing, upon processes of man never before experienced. There were misâ€" takes made in the peace treaty, but it was of no avail now to dwell upon them. The solution of the difficulties would be found in the sound, honest thinking of men. Mr. Crerar was guest speaker at the first dinner of the year of the Sudbury branch, Canadian Institute of Mining and Mcetallurgy. Hon. C. D. Howe, minister of transport, was to have been the speaker, but owing to illness his place was taken by the mines minister. He selected as his topic "Whither Deâ€" mocracy?" and in an interesting and informative manner reviewed the probâ€" lems confronting democracy of the present day. Canada‘s progress during the last 20 years was remarkable, said the speaks2»s, the development west of the Great Lakes being a vital factor in the naâ€" tional growth. Mining also was Ou;â€" standing, and had been a great conâ€" tribution to the stability of the Dominâ€" ion. Sharp issue with the presentâ€"day conâ€" tention in some circles that the govâ€" ernment owes every man a job, was taken by Hon. T. A. Crerar, minister of mines and resources in the federal govâ€" ernment, speaking in Sudbury Saturâ€" day eveninz. The first business of the individual, he said, was to look after his own future, and if the government poâ€" licy was to assume the duty of mainâ€" taining those who were careless and sniftless about their own wellâ€"veing, i would mean to a large extenwv curtailâ€" ment of the freedom and energies Oo{ the individual.

The unfortunate trend was a tendency to look to the government for support, but it was not the functicu of a government to see that every one was employed. Every individual should Je obliged to look after his own future, to set something aside for the day when he may have no job. The govâ€" ernment and parliament are appointed to conduct the national ibusiness, but that is not something apart from the individual. Every one must rise to the level of his responsibility. Wheat Problem The wheat problem, said Mr. Crerar, was one of the most difficult issues beâ€" fore the country. Prior to the war the exporting countries were prosperous, but of late years the importing nations were consuming and buying less wheat, and the outlook was that importation would still further decline, creating a vexatious problem. It became evident that if the government was obliged to bonus wheat, it must also take steps to regulate production. I{ the fear of war was banished from the world, the minister foresaw bDroâ€" The relief question, he thought, had not been wisely handled from the outâ€" set, despite the fact that governments had endcavored to solve the difficulty One of the handicaps was that too many were concentrated in the large cities. Twoâ€"fifths of the population of Manitoba was in Winnipeg, and 86 per cent. of the relief of that province was distributed in the capital city. Simila«c conditions existed in Quebec, the main part of the population being congested in Montreal. In past years the Lominion was exâ€" travagant in railway building as roâ€" of expectation, probably well based ay the time, that the population was to grow within a reasonable time to 20,000,000 or 25,000,000. (But that hors was not realized, and the railway deâ€" ficit which the taxpayers have to meet is currently around $50,000.000 annually. Motor traffic has largely displaced railâ€" ways and miuch business has been lost from that cause and as result of the depression. The economic stringency reversed the immigration policy, and the number coming into the country has been dropped almost to zero.â€" T ie speaker said, however, that he was not one of those who considered that unâ€" employment and immigration were inâ€" terlocked in the country‘s current probâ€" lems. no less than $60,000,000 yearly. old ag: pensions absorbed $30,000.000 from th» federal government besides additionsl sumsifrom the provincial trtasuries..

The problem was to find markets for the new wealth produced. Great as these problems are, they are not insolvable. The country was worth the strenuous effort of every man. The responsibility, however, rests upon all and not merely upon the governmen‘s. What is done in the next 10 or 15 years may well determine the history of the Dominion in the ensuing cenâ€" tury. Dr. Charles Camsell, deputy minister, who accompanied Mr. Crerar on h‘is trip to Sudbury, said he was much inâ€" terested in the expansion of the nickel industry in the district since he was last here, and in the preparations that hnad been made for the comfort of tae workers and for research and developâ€" ment of the mineral fields. Mr. Wragge says that he does rnot think the matter has been brought io the attecntion of the mining indu:iry at all, and that, to his mind, it is a most inequitable and unfair way of treating a prospector or other owner and receives payment in instalments, or sells any commodity on the insta‘â€" ment plan, and it is obvicusly unfair to That is the latest ruling of the Deâ€" partment of National Revenue as apâ€" plied to a case in British Columnia and one that will drive one more spike into the coffin of prospecting in this country if not modified. The facts are based upon a letter reâ€" ceived ‘by this department of The Glogse and Mail from E. C. Wragge, wel!lâ€" known barrister and solicitor of Nelâ€" son, who encloses copy of the official letter from the Ottawa officials in proo{f of the attitude adopted by the Deparâ€" ment. (From Globe and Mail) "Any prospector who sells a property and is prepared to take any of his payâ€" ments by way of returns from ore miliâ€" ed or smelted, must pay income tax on that income, instead of treating it, as it always has been treated until th»e amendment of the Income War Tax Act. as capital received."

This deduction must be remitted to the Receiverâ€"General, where it is held as a credit against the resident‘s tax to be assessed in the normal course, following filing of a T.1 return by the nonâ€"resident indiviâ€" duals. If the normal individual tax as eventually assessed against the said nonâ€"residents is less than the deposit or credit so created with the Receiverâ€" General by means of the aforesaid deâ€" ductions, then the difference will be remiitted to the nonâ€"resident taxpayer. There is no question of 5 per cent. liability in this case. The 5 per cent. tax is imposed by Section 9B on cerâ€" tain specific payments going from Canâ€" adaian sources to nonâ€"residents.
