REDFEARN Schedule Subject to Change "You Need Colborne Stores as Much as They Need You" Few Changes in Taxation Are Included in Budget Following- are highlights of this year's Budget presented at Ottawa: No Increases in major taxation No changes in tariffs, for the first time since 1912. Deficit tor il937-3S--the fiscal year ending March 31; last--$13,775,000 and the estimated Budgeted deficit for 1938-39 $22,900,000. The 8 per cent .sales tax remains in operation, hut the list of exemptions is1 "widened to take in all major materials used in house construction. Other exemptions are designed bo benefit farimers and fishermen. No change in excise tax rates'. Tax will not apply to tines and tubes when used ae original equipment of cars, traetorsv trucks, trailers and motorcycles. Reason for no tariff gotiations for bilateral trade treaties between Canada, Great Britain amd United' States must be concluded first. Gove raiment believes Canada should try to reach 'agreements rather (than pursue an isolated policy of unilateral tariff 'reductions. No change in income tax rates for indivildluiails of corporations, but the gift tax is raised all along the line amd one exemption widened. Attempt imadte to catch tax-dodgers who set up foreign residence or use foreign companies to evade income tax. iSmlalll loan companies to be supject to full income tax rates!.

Unofficial estimates of Canada's national income for 1937. $4,830,000,-000, an increase of 13 per cent over 19®6. Mr. Howe Versus Canada Reprint from the Oshawa Daily Times Tuesday, June 14, 1938 The principle of democratic govem-menlt, badly shattered in Europe, is being seriously endangered in Canada by the whipping through Commons of Hon. C. D. Howe's Transiport Bill. Mir. Howe's Bill, which would let the railways make individual bargains with chosen skippers, has been vigorously opposed thy representatives from every Province. Farm journals have thundered that it would injtuire the farimier because he is a small shipper, and the "Agreed Charges" would put him at a disadvantage as against itlhe larger shipper. The Canadian Manufacturers' Association lias IpneBlemitied a. 'brief to show that rwiban business, big and small, is thoroughly opposed t)o the Bill because it would-throw freight rates hack into a state of chaos. The Maritime Provinces have cried against the Bill. The Western Brovi ncies, represuted by the (. nnadian Millers'Association and plea ded for in no uncertain terms by the Wiinnipeg Free Press, have stood out strongly against Agreed Charges. The Car.'Lidan and the Ontario Automotive Transiport Association have' contended that the Bill would ruin highway transportation. The Industrial Traffic League, representing a. cross-~ section of all Canada, has entered1 a brief. A number of other organizations, including the Chamber of Cam-m'erce, Toronto, and Hamilton, have made formal protest. Besides the Winnipeg Free Press, a score of other dailies, of all shades of political cp'nion have carried pieces in their editorial pages to show the unwise features of Agreed Charges. As an example, the Prinice Albert, Herald. Independent Liberal on April 13th last reviewed the case against the Bill Weekly papers in all provinces anld irrespective 'of party have stood solidliy against the Bill because the weekly press is conioeirn'ed mainly with the affairs of small urban business and of the farmer.. Yet in spite of this practically unanimous opinion against the Transi-pot Bill, Hon. C. D. Howe has steered it through the Common's. It now comes 'b'Fifi'f, The Senate, which killed a somewhat similar bill of Mr. Howie's laslt year. Ironically enough, the cause of responsible, d'emocnatic government in this Dominion tor the iniccn-eiut rests in the hands of the muoh-maligned Senate. Ask Co-operation In Weed Campaign Every person owning a square foot of ground should be interested in weed eradication, says Ontario Department of Agriculture in opening a determined drive on weeds. A determined drive to wipe out weeds in hojtth country and city Is being inaugurated 'by the Crops. Seeds and1 Weeds Branch of the Ontario Department of Agriculture. Educational meetings which have been attended by officials, weed inspectors and intelrested citizens have been held in every district of Ontario. Weed inspectors have been told to be firm in enforcing the Weed Control Act and to use! good judgment in all their dealings with the public. However, Ito be successful, the campaign must have the enthusiastic backing of every householder and farmer, officials pointed out. Judging by the interest nVsplayed and letters received by the Deipartment of Agriculture, weeds will be fighting a losing battle this year, with complete eradication the goal of the Department One neglected patch or plant this year may lead: to .serious infestation next year. Careless and indifferent citizens can do much to undo all the good work of their neighbours in fighting the weed menace. A weed inspector needs the assistance of every individual. Give him your support. Make your comimunity free of weeds.

Every weed destroyed means death to thousands, of weed seeds. Will you, Mr. Citizen, please do your share in this worth-while campaign. Liberal! members of Parliament have decided to ask the Government to bring the Pairmlens" Creditors,' Arrangement Act to an end in Ontario. And 'after the decision to ask and the rociaion to act, how long will it take to get results? Surely Ottawa can ishow a little speed occasionally. The House has been in session for five months now and what is there to show for the $1,200.00 the country pays tori this gathering of 245 members.? One session could not be held because only 17 memibers were pres-sent. The "boys" were watchine a parade outside instead of attending the country's business.
