Last year $1,573,000 was spent on educa- tion, He said the estimates made nm provision for a tax increase and reflected a "slight reduc- tion" in the tax burden on for- est industries, aimed at increas. ing competition in world mar- kets. Mr. DesBrisay said a tax in- crease was ruled out because "the current heavy burden of taxation relative to income sug- gested that income, both indi- vidual and corporate, must be further expanded before addi- tional taxation could be justi- fied.

YOU'LL FIND CHICAGO (AP) -- Floods which have driven thousands of persons from their homes and caused widespread property damage and inconvenience to millions in four states appeared to be easing in some areas to- day. However, the threat of fur- ther overflows remained in many sections of the flood- Stricken regions of Ohio, West Virginia, Pennsylvania and In- diana. And cities in Kentucky along the surging Ohio River were possible danger spots. The floodwaters from rivers and streams swollen by heavy rains and melting snow were blamed for at least seven deaths, including four in West Virginia and two each in Ohio and Indiana. Outside the major flood belts, a man was drowned in a rain-swollen river in cen- tral Tennessee. Hundreds of roads throughout the four-state area were closed. Many towns were isolated and schools and industrial plants were closed in some communi- ties, AID VICTIMS National Guard troops, civil defence groups and Red Cross disaster units joined in aiding the flood victims. The chief bright spot in the flood picture was the tapering off of heavy. rains which have pounded the region for the past several days.

"I would hope,"' he said at a press conference, '"'that the United States and Canada, hav- ing been drawn together by na- ture, would be able to co-oper- ate." This was his response to a question on Canada-U.S. trade relations in the light of reports of some feeling of anti-Ameri- canism in Canada. Kennedy made a brief refer- ence to what he described as "constant communication" with Canada and other wheat-pro- ducing countries to make sure that special U.S. wheat deals-- including barter and local cur- rency deals--do not disrupt tra- ditional wheat markets. He also said the U.S, has been able to give Canada some as- sistance when Canada _ experi- INSIDE... Pickering Farm Sells | For $214,000 Page 3 | To Reopen Bilingual! School Study .,....

The food index rose 0.3 per cent to 129.4 from 129, mainly as a result of price increases for most fresh fruits and veg- etables.

Negotiations with the Soviet Union still have a considerable distance to go, Kennedy said. It is not only a question of the r of on-site inspections but also of the whole range of inspection arrangements to en- sure adequate safeguards.

But the perfection of detec. tion techniques, the president said, has not reached the point where on-site inspections can be 1
