SOAKING THE RICH (Toronto Telegram) There is little doubt that foecaose of heavy taxation the springs ol pri- vate charity will dry up. The levies on gifts and inheritances over che de- cade or two will dissolve the largest fortune now in existance, and the high level of income tax has spelled the doom of new accumulations, oif wealth by one family. Consequently the outlook of private institutions and charities dependent upon the o'enerosity of large contributors is none too bright. What we may Ul- timately see is the dependence of those institutions and foundations on other than charitable aid. Charities maintained chiefly with money provided by wealthy benefac- tors have accomplished a tremen- dous amount of good. They have as- sisted the victims -i misfortune, pro- moted science and relieved the public purse of heavy e.xpenditures. The disappearance of their sup- iport would necessitate the govern- ments coming to their aid with State funds from taxation -• -f ^^aWHf "The army must be reinforced . . , must be kept up to strength . . . and It Is the first duty of the people of Canada to see that it Is General McNaughton, speaking in Owen SoHnd. On Feb. 5th you have a vital choice to make, and all Canada looks to North Grey to choose rightly. For this choice affects the war effort of all Canada. You are going to give one of three men a seat in Parliament, where he can have a free voice. If you send Mr. Case or Mr. Godfrey, they simply become one member among 238 others. Neither one can be Minister of Defence. If you send General McNaughton, he is Minister of Defence. He is pledged to support the Canadian Army which he built. Although he is Minister of Defence, he needs a seat to have a free voice in Par- liament, or he is badly handicapped . Many issues have been brought up, which cannot be settled until the General Election. But the matter you must settle now is this:â€" Will you give Canada's Minister of National Defence a seat in Parliament â€"or will you deny him this help? // VOTE FOR McNaughton - feb. sth Canada Needs McNaughton AND SO DO YOUR MEN OVERSEAS iMued by Authority of the Korth Orey Liberal Aasoolatton The puiblie health is the foundation upjn which rests the happiness of the people and the welfare of the na- tion.
