W.F.GOURDIER SOWARDS KEEPS COAL P AND COAL KEEPS SOWARDS SOWARDS CO 4 4 DISCUSSED HERE | At the Meeting of Associated Boards of Trade and Cham- bers of Commerce. The Ontario Associated Boards of { Trade and Chambers of Commerce to meet in the Kingston City Coun- cil Chamber on Nov. 5th and 6th will consider these additional resolu- tions: \ Postage Rates to Foreign Countries. By Toronto Board of Trade: lf | Whereas the development of the ex- port trade of Canada is of prime im- portance; and 5 Whereas cheap postage is an im- portant factor in trade development; and Whereas the advantage to our export trade of reduced rates on first-class mail from Canada to for- eign countries would much more than counterbalance any decrease in revenue likely to result thereform; Therefore be it resolved: That the Ontario Associated Boards of Trade and Chambers of Commerce petition the Dominion government to put into force at the earliest possible date the minimum rates on first-class mail to foreign countries adopted by the Universal Postal Union Congress, fn order. that Canadian exporters may be placed on the most favorable basis" with their competitors in for- eign countries. Trade With the West Indies. By Niagara Falls Chamber of Commerce: Whereas there is a large | consumption "of tropical products in Canada, and many of these products fl | are grown in the British West In- dies; and Whereas the British West Indies provide a large market for the pro- ducts of the fields and factyrion of Canada; and Whereas it is physically impos- sible for these two countries to com- pete in trade; and Whereas it is desirable that the Seaport trade of the Maritime Prov- inces be developed and increased by the exchange of goods betwedn these British countries: Therefore be it resolved: That the Ontario Associated Boards of Trade and Chambers of Commerce go on record as approving the principle of the recent'treaty between Canada and the British West Indies and urge that the principle be extended until both countries enjoy a free exchange of all products. Federal Taxation, By Toronto Board of Trade: Whereas the taxation imposed upon income and capital by the Dominion government has proven to be exces- sively burdensome; and Whereas such taxation is (a) depriving industry of the re- Sources necessary for expansion and stability; : (b) preventing investment in new industries; (0) destroying Individual tive and efiterprise; (d) producing less revenue be- cause of the Withdrawal of capital from productive business for invest- initia ment in tax-exempt securities or for other uses to avoid the imposition of heavy surtaxes and supertaxes; and Whereas the present rates of taxa- tion imposed upon income and capi- tal in the United States are measur- ably lower than similar taxation in Canada; and Whereas the more favorable rates |, of Taxation in the United States, as compared with Canada, encourages the exodus of Canadians to that country; discourages the investment of capital, either domestic or foreign, for the development of our resources and other business enterprises; and acts as a deterrent upon desirable immigration; and Whereas reduced ' taxation upon income and capital in this country would so stimulate development en- terprises and business generally as to materially increase the revenue from tax collections, or at-ieast avoid further reductions; Therefore be it resolved: That the Ontario Associated Boards of Trade and Chambers of Commerce petition 'the Dominion government fo intro- duce the necessary legislation at the next session of Piurliament to: (8) Reduce the Income Tax rates to, at least, the rates now in force in the United States; (b) Exempt Income Tax paid to countries THE DAILY BRITISH WHIG has remained practically without change since the annual meeting of 1924; and Whereas the expressions contain- ed in the resolution passed by the Ontario Associated Boards of Trade and Chambers of Commerce at that time still hold good; and Whereas it must be realized that there can be little reduction in the income tax or amy other tax until such time as the Government of Can- ade are able to considerably reduce the expenditures of the country; Therefore be it resolved: That the ideas expressed in the resolution of 1924 be re-afirmed and that the On- tario Boards of Trade and Chambers of Commerce should urge the Gov- ernment of the Dominion of Canada to endeavor by every possible means to substantially reduce the expendi- tures of the country to end¥le, in the near future, a reduction of not only income tax, but the abolishment of the stamp tax upon cheques, drafts, receipts, etc., as npw imposed under the Special War Revenue Act; and Be it further resolved: That as a substantial portion of the expendi- ture of the country is under the con- trol (subject to Parliament) of the Civil' Service Commission, that the Government be urged to give care- ful consideration to the various re- ports upon the subject, with a view to creating economies in the Civil Service; and Be it further resolved: That the Government authorize the publica- tion of the rules, regulations and ja- terpretations of the various clan of the Income War Tax Act, together with instructions for calculating the assessments, and that these be plac- ed at the disposal of the tax-payer in A convenient form. Term Contracts for Electric Power. By Welland Board of Trade: Whereas the present policy of the Ontario Hydro Electric Commission, in refusing to grant contracts for power for industrial purposes for a longer term than yearly contract at an unfixed rate, makes it difficult and even impossible to interest capi- talists and manufacturers in locating and investing in Ontario; Therefore be it resolved: That the Ontario Associated Boards of trade and Chambers. of Commerce ap- rroach the Ontario Hydro Electric Commission and the Provincial Gov- ernment with a view to procuring such revision of policy that will per- mit of the granting of term contracts for power for industrial purposes at fixed rates in conformity with the | Policy of private power companies in other parts of Canada. ------------------ Land Tax Discussed. At a rally held here in the inter- ests of BE. J. Sexsmith, Progressive candidate for Prince Hdward-Len- nox, Joseph Haycock of Adolphus- town took up the declaration made a few days ago by the Conservative candidate, John Hubbs, to the effect 'that a man would "be a fool to put forward any such taxation scheme" 48 has been attributed to him. Mr. 1| Haycock stated that when Mr. Hubbs was later confronted with a copy of Hansard, he had to admit that he advocated on the floor of the house that the income and sales taxes be done away with; and that a land tax, collected through the municipalities, be substituted therefor. Mr, Hay- cook showed conclusively that a land tax large enough to furnish an equal amount of revenue would amount to two dollars per acre anfiunally on every acre "of cultivated land in Canada. fi -------------- Chance for Women.
