of the bank of montreal s latest monthly business review which was issued this week from the standpoint of its provisions and the economic assumptions upon which they ap parently rcm the b of m says the new bud git stands in decided contrast to that of a scar ago the 1948 budget it point out dcotcd a substantial surplus to debt reduction and pro sided virtuall no an relief it as thus a notable example of the practical application of cscfica1 fiscal thcor to meet an inflationar situation the present budget anticipated only a nominal surplus in the current fiscal period and provided tax reductions totalling appro imately 36 millions on the basts of a full years operations these tax concessions rbe statement notes taken in coniunction with the disbursement of 250 millions of refundable personal income tax and retroactive payments of about 214 millions to western wheat growers amount in aggregate to a very sizeable stimulus to con sumer spending power a significant and rhated fact thebank adds n that with the removal of some 750 000 taxpayers from the personal income tax roll by the raising of exemptions the number of per sons now suhiect to direct levy on income has been reduced to about i 600000 since the canadian working force is esti mated at approximately 5 01x3000 persons it follotva that about two out of every three of these will not be directly sware

equipment which we have collected and put to work during several yeans in the business it was quite convenient to satisfy our interest when a door- way led from the old section of the building in aeten to the new section quite pleasant it wit too on a bright sunny day to slip out into the sunshine and watch progress bat these days of spring are forever chang ing for instance list friday when it seemed that the roof would get on and our heatipg tyatetn protected from the weather it started to rain it persisted until the work had to be stopped then in the week previous came a late snowstorm that last nearly three dayis on monday warmer weather was predicted and it seemed safe to disconnect the boiler and depend on a few electric heaters to msintain a working temperature the weather man missed by several degrees and as we write there arc no thoughts of early spring or summer coming up but the contractors sre msking splendid progress with the larger quarters and it won t be many weeks until the sdvantages will be so many that these inconveniences will be for gotten if conditions sren t normal for a week or so readers youll knov the reason we started our spring renovation a little early and attempted to heat the building rush of summer tiiursnay april th it ladira needed far loo frequently of late the public has been told that something has not been done because of lack of cooperation on the part of one of the three levels of government com ments the financial post spokesmen have announced that ottawa would not agree or this was a provincial matter or it was up loathe municipal authorities there are few countries of comparative popu lation which have aa much government as we have with three different levels municipsl provincial snd federal all supposed to be look ing sfter public affairs one would think that everything possible should be covered but this frequent passing the buck from one gov ernment to anothen especislly on controversisl issues is smple proof that everything possible is not being covered the plain tax paying cititen ef canada is not greatly concerned about the particular jurisdiction of thia or that public authority what he is concerned about is getting things done whether it is cleaning up some petty gambling hystens or clearing the wsy for vital power development the chesley fnterprise holds thst the de partment of education should give leadership in the establishment of large high school dis tricts in support of this position the editor makes the following editorial comment on the subject since ihe chealey board of education has set out to try to establish a larger high school district it has found that the department of fducation has done little more than provide the idea the working out of the scheme is being left to the councils school boards and people with little or no guidance and leadership from the department sac are told by the orangcville banner tor instance that people in that district arc hecom ing impatient with the lack of action on the part of tonship councils u ith the latter dcclin inn to act it has become nccissar to have ever school section decide the matter and bix out of seven have been favorable to forming a larger school district the other one is re maining out of it for the time betnk the point ould seem to be that the department might well provide a regulation whcrcb a majority rules and that if most of the sections decide in favor of a larger district then all sections are to be included but the department docs nothing to provide active leadership it leaves everything to the people in the district the flmira signet also deals with the very live topic of school district and says creat ing a high school area was instituted hy the provincial goveernment but it would seem many difficulties which crop up have to be settled by the representatives of the board who arc ap pointed from the various municipalnes one can t blame every municipality for getting the best deal possible but surely the depart ment of fducation can set don rules rcgulat ions and financial obligations so aft will realize first hand what is expected of them rather than enter into an agreement and then commence to squirm under the obligations kditoiual notes never mind youll get back that hour you lost on a sunday in september the hockey season has gradually merged into the summer pastime
