AUSSIES GET TAX RELIEF IN BUDGET Canberra, Nov. 14--(OP Cable-- Prime Minister Chifiey today pre- sented Australia with' an "anti-in- flation" budget which made no changes in high income rates but sought to increase the purchasing power of the small wage earner by the reduction of the sales tax on household essentials and clothing, the price of which had risen as a result of the war, It provided for the expenditure of $1,400,000,000 with revenue expected to be $200,000,000 less and followed the introduction of a measure to extend a variety of anti-inflation- ary controls such As wage prices and rent ceilings. These controls were applied during the war by National Security Regulations which expire next month. Although income tax reductions have been promised as they become feasible, it is reported that none are provided in the new budget be- cause the government is awaiting the outcome of its case for a na- tion 40-hour week, now being con- cluded before an Australian Arbi- tration Court. The court also is due to take up the question of revising the coun- try's national minimum wage sche- dules. Treasurer Chifley said that in the last two years the government has cut taxation by a total of about $200,000,000. Most recent cuts--an- nounced last July--averaged 11 per cent. At present rates, a man with dependents pay $50 on an annual wage of $1,000 and $700 on $3,000. The 7% per cent sales tax on clothing is eliminated by the bud- get and with the reduction of be- ween 2% and 15 per cent in the higher rates on household articles Mr. Chifley said the government's concession would amount to more than $60,000,000. Yank Army Raiders Find Huge In Jewish D.P. Camp Frankfurt, Germany, Nov. 14 (AP)--United States military police raided a Jewish displaced persons camp at Zeilsheim today and arrested eight men described by army officers as leaders of one of the biggest black market centres in Germany, operating in the camp. Black Mart Lt.-Col. Provost Marshal, said the raid fol- Jowed investigations which indicat ed the camp, housing 4,000 homeless Jews, was the centre of large-scale black market operations extending throughout the 'American occupa- tion zone of Germany. About 5; automobiles, several thousand of dollars in military scrip and forbidden American and English money, as well as hundreds of thousands of German marks were seized during the dawn raid, .carried out by 100 army military policemen and 25 agents of the Army's Criminal Investigation Di- 'vision. : No resistance was encountered .and no violence was observed by correspondents perinitted to watch the raid. . Within 10 minutes 25 American 'Army Criminal Investigation agents who accompanied the police an- nounced they had arrested the chief black market operator. He was not immediately identified. Col. Connolly said a bakery shop was the headquarters of the black market activities in the camp and : was the chief objective of the C.I.D. agents. ~ Road blocks to prevent move- ment of trucks were set up on all { roads leading from the camp, which occupies an entire German village about 10 miles from the centre of Frankfurt. The M.P.'s were given authority to search persons on the streets for concealed weapons but were ordered not to manhandle gny of the camp occupants, most of whom come from. Poland. House-to-house sear- ches for contraband were conducted by the C.I.D. agents, Military police said they staged the raid after receiving reports that many varieties of food were being sold at sidewalk booths in the camp at black market prices--such as oranges at 100° marks each ($10 at the legal rate of exchange). 'They said they also had been in- formed that "operators" in the camp had dealt extensively in auto- mobiles, some built with secret compartments for carrying contra- band cigarets tp Cologne and other . German cities. Redmond J. Connolly, Fine Soloist Singing Here On Week-end The Salvation Army Songsters are extremely fortunate in having as their guest soloist this coming week- end, Mrs. Douglas Murray of Tor- onto, For some years Mrs, Murray has won fame and renown for her singing.

Since 1916 she has mever missed an opportunity to sing for the soldiers and veterans of the Empire. To the men of Christie Street Military Hospital who fre- quently hear her full, thrilling tones, she is "The Angel".

More than 125 firemen from 15 stations battled the flames and am- bulances from hospitals stood by. An elderly couple who resided in the Presbytery were reported safe. Situated in west-central Montreal, the Church recently celebrated its 60th anniversary and was noted as one of the most imposing Protes- tant churches in the city. For a time the fire threatened to spread to adjoining buildings, Scores of policemen kept hun- dreds of late theatre crowd specta- tors away from the blaze. Many firetrucks were delayed in getting to the fire as they made their way through thick theatre and night- club crowds which jammed neigh- boring streets. Some 25 streams of water were poured on the roaring mass. Built in 1879, the Church was the result of the amalgamation of the Knox and Crescent congregations, Women Fined Consuming Potent Brew Charged with consuming rubbing lotion for a beverage, two Oshawa women--Mrs, Margaret Carroll, 113 Simcoe Street North, and Mrs. El- len Harrison, 324 French Street, were each fined $100 and costs or three months in jail by Magistrate F. 8. Ebbs in court this morning. Two men involved in the case, Ed- gar Trimble and Edward L. Mullen, both of 218 Dearborn Avenue, had their charges adjourned until Nov- ember 28. Bail for the two men was continued at $150 each. Evidence of Constables George McCammond and Chérles Stainton was that they had been called to the vicinity of Memorial Park about 7.45 in the evening of November 6, had seen the four persons near the bandshell in the park and had watched their activities. According to P. C. Stainton they were using filthy language "that I wouldn't like to repeat in this court." They also saw one of the four go away to a barber shop, return with a bottle and proceed to mix its contents with a drink from another bottle. The four were arrested and tried to throw the bottles away. Analysis of the contents of both bottles revealed they contained al- cohol of the denatured type used for body use. Police said that both women had a smell on their breath similar to that in the bottles which was not the smell of beer or whis- key. Neither Mrs, Carroll nor Mrs. Henderson had any evidence to give in defense of their plea of not guil. ty, except that Mrs, Carroll denied that she had drunk from the lotion bottle or that her breath smelled like the contents. Chief Owen D. Friend said both had several convictions against them for either drinking face lo- tions or being drunk Would Quadruple Sydney's Water Sydney, Australa, -- (CP)--The New South Wales state govern- ment hopes to quadruple Sydney's water supply by the erection of the largest dam in Australia at War- ragamba Gorge, 70 miles from the capital, The $20,000,000 dam which will take seven years to build will be 380 feet high and 250 feet long with a 30-foot highway, across its top.

Case Proceeds With Accused Not Present er ------ The case of Arthur Carl Bell of Toronto, charged with careless driving following an accident near Bfooklin October 4, was carried on in' absentia in court this morning with evidence of the Crown witness- es taken. Mr. Bell had been in court on October 25 on the charge but had. asked for an adjournment un- til today. After today's testimony was heard, the magistrate set the case over for one yee to hear Mr. Bell's side of the story. The accident occurred on High- way No. 7, about a mile west of Brooklin, at about 3.45 p. m. when an auto driven by the accused col- lided with the rear of a parked car, owned by Mark Lockyer of Brook- lin, and skidded into a ditch throw= ing Mr. Bell's wife out of the auto uring her. and IE statement t Provincial Constable Gordon Keast, was that his car skidded as he applied the prakes, smashing into the car which was parked on the shoulder of the road, careening across the road and ended up backwards in the opposite ditch, Mr. Lockyer, who was sitting in his car, said he saw the auto skid- ding past and saw the woman fall out of the front seat to the road.

Democratic Socialism Program Well Ahead Most Empire Countries British Commonwealth of Nations are well on the way with their pro- gram of democratic socialism," stated Ford Brand to the C.CF. Public Forum held in the Genosha Hotel last Sunday night, Mr. Brand chose as his subject "Socialization of the Necessities of Life", This, he said was the basic object of the C.C.F., that all things necessary for a full life must be produced for use and not for profits. Public ownership is not the bogey as presented by our "private enter- prisers" who are profiteering by the exploitation of the farmers and workers of Canada, but is actual fact accepted by the Canadian peo- ple. "Canada," he said, "has many examples from varying degrees of socialization either under public confrol or administered on a co- operative basis." He cited several types of socialized services in Can- ada today and also referred to the growth of public ownership in New Zealand, Australia and Great Bri- tain. Some countries he said, water is still being sold by private com- panies. Our hydro system, although not administered by those who be- lieve in the extension of public ownership, is able to provide electric power 3-5 times less than in other places under private enterprise, "Canada's No. 1 need," said Mr. Brand, "is housing. We need thous- ands of modern low rental units. These can only be made 'available through public housing projects." He then {illustrated what New Zea- land and Great Britain were doing regarding public housing. He point- ed out that apartments, which in Toronto would rent for $120 per month, are available in New Zea- land for $4. per week, "In England," he said, "there is no Juxury build- ing, that four out of every five houses built are by public housing authorities and no unit can be built costing more than $5,000. He dealt with many other forms of social ownership, such as milk, fuel and medical services. It was announced that the C.C.F. public forums will be held every second Sunday evening in the Gen- osha Hotel. The speaker for the next meeting which will be held on Sunday, November 24, will be E. B. Jolliffe, Ontario Leader of the C.CF. Mr, Jolliffe has spoken in Oshawa before and it is expected that a large number will be present to hear him again, Antemeridian And Postmeridian Parties Woo Pupils At OCVI & A 4 Monster posters deck the assembly hall and blotters, hand-shakes and other good-will enticements are being handed out in profusion at the Oshawa Collegiate and Voca- tional Institute these days as the campaign for the Student Council elections next Monday and Tuesday is now in full swing. : The campaign got off to a rous ing start as the supporters of the rival parties--the Antemeridians and the Postmeridians--gathered in the auditorium between 12 and 2 o'clock yesterday to hear the cam- paign speeches of their respective standard-bearers.

Then they will know it's time to leave or place another penny in the slot, since city council passed a re- solution Tuesday substituting $2 as the maximum fine for the second and subsequent offences. Previously It had been planned to make the maximum $10 for the first offence and $25 for the second. That anyone should be liable to a fine of $10 for overtime parking was branded "ridiculous" by Alder- man Byron and his supporters. Al- derman D. Chown, who spoke against the amendment, felt that it would be a grave mistake to limit the magistrate in the imposing of fines, The amendment carried by a nine to six vote. The question of parking meters in general still occupied a good deal of the session, before the by-law to provide for the installation, opera- tion, and supervision of the gadgets received its third and final reading. On question of Alderman Russell McCullough, it was made clear that all installation costs were being borne by the meter supply company. A time limit had been arranged for rarking on streets adjacent to the parking meter areas, Alderman Mc- Cullough was told in reply to a fur. ther question.

Four study groups were SAY COMPANY DWNED TOWNS HURT GROWTH Toronto, Nov. 14--(CP) = The status of many of the "company towns" in northern Ontario may rest on a decision of the Ontario Municipal Board which today con- tinued consideration of an applica. tion from Calvert Township for the annexation of the Town of Iroquois Falls, some 175 miles north of North Bay. The town is owned by the Abitibi Power and Paper Company, Limit- ed, and Reeve Elmer Lefebvre of the Township sald the object of the application is to place control of the town in the hands of the people, rather than the company. "Iroquois Falls is not guided by the wishes of the people living in it," the Reeve said yesterday as the board opened its hearing, "A com- pany town should not be dominated by the company that owns it but should be controlled bv the people living in it." He said a senior em- ployee of the firm who retires on pension at the end of this year will not be permitted to stay in the town "where he made his living for a generation, or a generation and a half." Abitibi directly or indirectly pro- vided employment for all residents. Relations between Town and Town. ship had been harmonious although the Township felt the company could give better rates for water and electricity. Schools, library and recreational facilities provided by the Town were available to Township resie dents but in many cases the dis- tance was too great to make much use of them. 'The Reeve said he felt that ine dustrial expansion of the area might be blocked through company ownership of the Town and large areas around it.
