From the tor off the mountain there wereý rnagnificent views of the rug- ge nd snow cavered maun- tain Peaks, thie city off Lucerne and Lucerne Lake.

It is not that is inflationary but on a sparsely supplied That sparsely supplied xists whether we in- idividuals spend or not. If gov- ernment, well supplied with tax tmoneys, spends in our place, is there any reason to believe that the result will be different? Then there is the argument that, because of its obligations, government cannot afford to re- duce taxes. That argument is not saund. The facts are that a reduction in tax does not neces- sarily reduce tax incarne. Take the small concession made on the excise tax on cars at the last session of parliament. Actually it was a mere 5%7, but it was offered by a sober-faced min- ister, as if it represented a high hazard. The fact didn't turn out to be a hazard. Indeed the ex- pectatian is that the reduced tax will produce perhaps $8 million more than the higher tax. In 1954 the majority of income tax payers were given tax re- lief averaging a cut of about 12%. Again there were sober faces, but in fact the immediate improvement in business and industry that resulted provided more income than was lost by the tax eut. Indeed there is very little proof that reduced taxation relief secured at so littie hazard? the country.
