The Osha Times Published by Canadian Mewspagers Limited, #4 King st, E., Oshows, Ont, Pegs 6 Friday, Merch 3, 196) Ill-Advised Statement On Taxation Prospects Revenue Minister Mowlan recently predicted thet taxes were more ke fy to go wp then to go down, Why the Revenue Minister should have been so discreet as to forecast the tax policy of the federal government in advance of the Budget, is anybody's guess. That his words can have » depressing effect upon both business and employment must be obvious, The government, clearly, can neith- . er tax nor spend the eountry out of the present recession, The prospect of tax fnereases, as forecast by Mr, Mowlan, will discourage investors and eonsumers slike from making eom- mitments for new spending outlays of any kind, Taxes in Canada today sre already #& burdensome cost on the eountry's productive efforts, If productivity is to be increased, as the government has sald it must in order to improve the competitive position of Canadian industry, then the government must have the courage of its own eonvie- tions and ease the tax burden by eut- ting the unproductive eost of govern. ment spending, Tny suggestion of & heavier tax Base Metals From Washington comes word that President Kennedy has asked Con. gress for substantial subsidy pay- ments to that country's lead and zine producers, Higher US, tariffs on lead and zine Imports are also being mooted, If Congress goes along with Presi dent Kennedy's recommendations for increased assistance and protection for UB, lead and zine producers, the consequences for one of Canada's ma Jor resource industries, as well as for this country's export trade, could be serious indeed, The truth is that the United States, contrary to what Canadian advocates of freer trade asserts, has not hesi. tated in recent years to adopt policies brden is enough to send the already depressed Canadian ecomomy into a real taflspin, Mr. Mowlan's utter. ances on tax matters sre both Hl advised and fl-considered, Speaking recently at Waterloo, Do. minion Life Assurance Compsny's president, Alfred 8, Upton, rightly warned thet there "must be sn end to the eonstant demands on govern. ment" if the Canadian economy is to recover its buoyancy and prosper onee again, and, adds Mr, Upton, the pres of Canada, through its comments on the serious nature of the country's economic problems, Is playing sa key role in developing a keener public une derstanding of those policies best suit- ed to the country's needs, Mr. Upton is right on both counts, Demands on government for more so- ealled public services are In fact de- mands on the pockethook of every tax- payer and every consumer in the country, If every demand on government were recognized as a demand on the income and the resources of the ordin- wary taxpayer, the seekers after gov- ernment. handouts would he fewer in number, Threat which are harmful to Canada's ex- port-oriented resource industries, At the same time, the government at Ottawa has confined itself to occase lonal official protests, most of which have gone unheeded in official circles in Washington, Many Canadians wonder, with good reason, why the federal government has not taken more vigorous steps to remind Washington of the fact that this eountry is Uncle Bam's best cus- tomer, With UBS, export trade now a matter of obvious concern to the Kennedy administration, now would seem to he a good time for some straight talk on the subject of US, "resource protectionism" from Trade Minister Hees, Milk Producer Plan A team of three agricultural econ. _.omists has submitted an interesting proposal for improving the system of pricing and' marketing of fluid milk in Ontailo, The proposal Is the "result of a study requested by pros ducer. organizations who seek a prace tieable marketing program for thelr products and correction of problema in the milk industry without brings ing about price Increases to the cons sumer or loss to the producer, The job given the economists was clearly a difficult one, The root of the problem is the variety of prices pald for different categories of milk, At present milk produced in Ontario is purchased for two general uses: quota milk, which is used in dairy deliveries and for which the highest price is paid to the producer; and manufactured milk, used for concen- trated products, cheese, and po on, and for. which a lower price in paid the producer, An increasing amount of milk from the fluid or quota marks et has been diverted to manufacturs ing markets, thereby helping to create a surplus of manufactured dairy pros The Osharon Times Tb WILION, Publisher and General Manage 6 GWYN KINSEY, Bdiver Times sembining The Oshawa Ti and i) hy Gazette of 1863), in published daily ve and statutory halidays sxeepled) € Dally Ni vB 1) IS he Canadian boon, Audit Bureau 9 at he Ontaria Pravineian Dailies Asse an Rg BR Presa in exclusively entitled 0 the we far republigation of all ews despatched nthe wedited to 1 on to The Auociated Prono Re and she teal news published hewn All rights ot special despatches are ale Thameen iding, 438 University Ave rg Bg PR TRG IR i By SUBSCRIPTION RATES Delivered erriers in Oshawa, Whithy, Ales, Pekoring, aowmanvine Brooklin, on Parry, Princes Aleit apie Grave.

Quotas would be frozen at present levels, Quota shippers would receive top price for quota milk and secondary price for milk shipped in excess of quota, but the excess milk, if used as fluid, would cost the distributor top price, The distributor would then des posit the difference between top price and secondary price In an equalizas tion fund to be administered by the Roard, This fund would be used primarily to supplement payments to milk and cream shippers who do not share the benefits of top prices, Other Editor's Views BAILING OUT US, (Windsor Star) A few years ago people would have laughed at the idea of Germany coming to the financial rescue of the United States, Yet, West Germany is putting one billion on the line to help the American in their gold plight, Whe won the war?

Correspondent For The Oshawa Times LONDON Britain's farmers are waiting anxiously for Min ister of Agriculture Christopher Soames to. decide whether French Charollais hulls are to he permitted to enter this eoun- try, and the date on which im- portation can hegin, He has been considering this very im. portant issue for some months, and the farmers are heginning to grow restless for a decision Behind thelr anxiety is the knowledge that the world today is very short of heef, They are being urged to step up thelr pro- duction to help to meet a de: mand that Is growing every year, Crossing these fine French bulls with their own breeds, say the farmers, 18 one sure way of improving British beef pro- duction, In recent tests made in the United States, the French Charollais heat all other breeds for liveweight yield, Reports suggest that the Americans will make increasing use of these French bulls, The Russians, too, are greatly. impressed hy the Charollais cattle, and re. cently imported 1000 of them into the Soviet Union, ANXIOUS FOR SHARE The vast world market, hung: ry for heef is the goal of heef producers' efforts In several countries, They are all anxious to get a share of that market Tussia, Australia and the United States are working methodically to build up large heef herds on their wide open ranges, BOOK CORNER : when, While Britain has no vast, open spaces on which she can expand her beef herds to a great extent, production can he increased in other ways, Pro: gressive farmers are determin. ed to find the breed which will hest produce good commercial crosses, particularly from the dairy herds, These at present supply #0 percent of the home: grown beef eaten in this coun: try Farmers claim that with im. proved feeding methods and modern housing they can hand. le much larger numbers of cat. tle, They feel that with bright and aggressive marketing, they could compete successfully in the world heel market, MUST HAVE FREEDOM One Buffolk County farmer says: "We must have freedom to select the breeds including the Charollais, that will give the results we want, It may be that those of us who fancy this breed will he disappointed, but 1 do not think so, 1 like the look of these French hulls," While some breed societies have voiced objections to the importation of Charollais bulls, and have urged greater support for the home breeds, the Minis. ter of Agriculture does not seem to be impressed by the objec: tions, appear, are agreed that the Cha. rollals should be given a fair trial in this country, Bul they will have to walt batil the Min: ister has decided whether or not they are to be admitted and Mackenzie's Writing Not Stylish But Sharp By THE CANADIAN PRESS William Lyon Mackenzie will never be known as one of Can ada's great writers, but cer tainly he will rank as one of the most explosive, Whether writing for his newspaper, or in letters, his pen was as often dipped in acid as in ink, The fiery little Scot was not all vitriol; In The Selected Writs ings of Wilnam Lyon Macken: glo (Oxford) University Press edited by Margaret Fairley, he emerges as a dedicated man, a keen observer who could see good as well as bad, If most of this volume is heavy with his sarcastic thun. der it is because there was so much more bad than good in his day Possibly unintentionally, he reveals himself when he scolds the Legislative Couneil for spending $12,000 on decorations for its chambers, calling it an "act of plunder, of robbery 1 might say, but 1 like to use mild expressions OPINIONS CHANGED The leaven of his writings is generally found in descriptions of travels through the virgin territory of Upper Canada and the squalid streets of English cities, His mind was flexible = it he chose he would, with no ap: parent embarrassment, coms pletely reverse an opinion AL one time ho refers to Meth. odists as "highly respectable thelr ministers often men of talent , , , who labor uUnceas ingly to promote the interests of morality and religion." Later, © ae says Methodists "+ + wish to make all peaple serious = that is, they wish to kill them here and save them hereafter," "All brim stone merchants should be considered as more dangerous than mad dogs," ATTACKED TORIES His fellow journalists did not escape his barbs, He listed the newspapers of Upper Canada in categories; one group, including his own, he described as 'pa triotie . liberal journals;" the second group he labelled "ser vile Tory papers." The writings in the book, most of which are reprinted for the first time, cover the period from May, 1884; when he first published The Colonial Adves cate, to the eve of his abortive rebellion in December, 1837, While the rebellion was more farce than revolt, it did touch off events that finally toppled the Family Compact and brought responsible governs ment, Considering Mackensie's pros liticacy, Mrs. Fairley has done a remarkable job compiling this highly entertaining book, If she neglected anything it is the Little Rebel's writings while bearing the burden of exile, But that was beyond her intended scope = and that might make another book, Mare than 1,000,000 copies of the new translation of the New Testament will be in print when it is published sis multaneously throughout the world March 14, Published jointly by the Oxford and Cambridge university presses, 30.000 copies will be distri buted in Janada by The Mac: millan Company, Most farmers, it would 1 BY-GONE DAYS #5 YEARS AGO Whithy High School won the Interscholastic debating shield, defeating Oshawa Collegiate in the final debate, Building permits Issued for the month of February amount ed to $16,200, an increase of $7600 over the corresponding mon of 1025, Trustee Mrs, KE, C.
