HOW FAR CAN TAXATION GO? ---- --- --- (Globe and Mail) The alarming increases ini Government expendtures-Federal, Provincial and M unic ipal-du ring the past twenty vears are continu- ing. Yet the money speîit came, and cotres, f rom two sources only: taxes and borrowing. Taxes, as the people are painfully aware, are payable immed- iately out of carnings, reducing the amount available for personal and family uses. When a Government cannot extract ail it wishes in this way it uses its authority to mortgage future earnings and requires the taxpayers to meet the interest charges. As was pointed Qut in a prev- ions article, this borrowing has resulted in public indebtedness, througli all Governments, which reached the astonishing total of $7.393,317,- 000 in 1935. The annual interest charge> exceeded $341,00,000-within $10,000,000 of the total expenditure of the Federal Government in 1925, teiu years earlier. The Canadian people ouglit to let this sink in. The interest they paid in 1935 on debt, with about $1 each added, cqualled the cost of operating the Dominion Government in 1925. The mioney cornes from the people, who in the last analysis are responsible for the spcnding programrs and have authority to dcmand curtailment. Perhaps thev tlont understand wvhat a great part of the national incotr.e is being diverted to Guvernmnn purposcs. It should l)e cîcar, lîowever, tilat what they give the Goveruiments thev cannot spend otherwvise. 'Ne take the Federal Government for illustration, not as the worst uffender, but because the statistics are available. In 1918 total revenue cui'iectedl was $260,778,953. Expenditures that year were $576660210; they d<ubled frorn 1915 owing to the war. Ini the same year the wages and salaries paid in ail the manufacturing industries of the country arnounted to $582,457,488. Ten years later, in 1928, salaries and wagcs reached a total of $755199372. It was a boom year. The Federal Government collected revenue of $429,642,577, without difficulty, and spent $378,658,440. The last year for wlich manufacturing statistics arc shown by the Canada Year Book is 1934. Salaries and wages amnountcd to $533,- 594,635. Government revenues wcre $324,471,271, and expenditures $457.968,585.
