A new standard of living is set for Canadians in Income Tax Act changes and the new defense tax. An annual income of ‘$600 for single perâ€" sons and $1,200 for married persons has ibeen esfablished as the minimum on which Canadians may ‘be expected to live, and provision is made so that taxes will not pull any income below this level. But above this range, every wageâ€"earning man and woman will be expected to contribute substantially to the Treasury. The new defense tax will be imposed on all incomes over the minimum figures of $600 and $1,200 and, unlike the income tax, will apply to the whole income, not merely to that porticn exâ€" ceeding the minimum. It is provided, however, that no tax under this act shall reduce the individual net income below the minimum figures set forth. The act calls for a 2 per cent levy on the incomes of single persons earnâ€" ing over $600 armd a 3 per cent over $1,200. Married persons are subject to a 2 per cent tax if their incomes are over <$1,200. A single man earning $700 anually, for instance, will pay a defense tax of $14, even though he is exempt from income tax. A single man earning $610 who is liable to a . defense tax of $12.20, however, will be required to pay only $10, so that his income will not be trought beneath the minimum figure of $600. Those whose incomes are high enough to make them liable for income tax as well as the defense tax, will not be allowed to deduct the defense tax from their incomes when calculating income tax. Thus, a single man earning $1,250 a year ‘will pay $37.50 defense tax, but when calctilating ‘his income tax he must do sc on the $1,250 basis and not on a dbasis of $1,212.50. While the defense tax complicates the tax structure in a degree, especially in that it is collected directly from employvers :or dividendâ€"paying companâ€" ies, that structure is simplified by eliâ€" mination of the old 5 per cent surtax and the 20 per cent war surtax imposed last fall. In the income tax itself, new proâ€" visions will ‘bring substantial increases in revenue from persons in the lower income brackets. The Minister pointed out that, even if incomes of $25,000 and over were completely confiscated, the Treasury would receive only $35,000,000 more than is at present taken through taxation. He went further and said that if the Government were to take over all the income of every Canadian, in excess of $2,000 per year, the increase would be only $114,500,000. With this consideration in mind the new regulaâ€" tions will reduce exemptions so that thousands of persons previously exempt from income tax will be called upon *o contribute. Exemptions for single persons aAre reduced from $1,000 to $750, and for married persons from $2,000 to $1,500, INTERESTED IN YOUR HOME?

T ORDER THIS FREE BOOK Hill â€" Clark â€" Francis TIMAINS taxes has been substantially increased. Instead of paving 3 per cent on the first $230 of taxable income, Canadians will pay 6 per cent. «On the next $750 of income the rate will be 8 per cent., and on the next $1,000 it will be 12 per cent. ‘The scale increases with each | subsequent $1,.000, striking hardest at up to $10,000. _ On incomes over this figure the increase is not so sharp, but the tax burden remains proâ€" portionately heavy. Out lining the effects of the new inâ€" come and national defense taxes, Colonel Ralston quoted hypothetical cases to show how wage carnings in lvarlous groups would be Aaffected. A single man with no dependents, earning $800 a year, will pay a defense tax of $16 and an income tax of $3, or $19, where previously he paid no tax. A single man earning $1,500 would pay.$100 under the new taxes, where ;he now pays only $18. . PREMIER OF ONTARIO N sERIOTs sTATE OF HEALTH Hon.
