Honey made e strong plea in the House of Commons last week urging the sales tax exemption of plastic netting used in the Christmas tree industry be included included in the legislation to amend the Excise Tax Act. The' Hon. Mitchell Sharp, Minister of Trade and Commerce, Commerce, agreed with Mr. Honey, and thanked the M.P. for Durham Durham County for bringing the question of plastic netting to his attention for inclusion in the provision for exemption as wilt be provided for binder twine, wire, and other tying materials used in the baling of farm products. In presenting a case for the sales tax exemption of plastie netting, Mr. Honey stated that the 11 per cent sales tax adds significantly to the cost of production for those using this material. He said it is a modern and new type of packaging packaging which the government should take cognizance of and encourage.

"In 1001 we exported over 9,000,000 trees to the United States for about $6,200,000, thus providing n source of valuable foreign exchange. About 65 per cent of the trees grown in Canada go to the United States market. Plastic netting ought to nut the farmers and growers using it on the same basis ns those using other materials for their produce," Mr. Honey stated emphatically, (toils TO HOSPITAL Ills many school friends will ho sorry to learn that Alan Crngo, son of Mr. and Mrs. Stuart CrnKo, Prince St., win taken to Sick' Children's Hospital Hospital this week.
