Phone 268 Should be Watched We see by the papers that the estimated deficit in Dominion finances |i is to be $100,000,000. That's a lot of money. In accounting for this deficit the Conservatives naturally say that it is the result of the bad administra- tion of the Liberal Government, The Liberals in turn say "We ggve you a good budget and had you lértuns in office there would have been no'gdeficit. but probably a reduction in the To neither of these statements can b added Q. E. D. proof of responsibility for such a heavy deficit is not going to be easy to fix. What is much to the point at the present moment, is not who caused the trouble this subject will require constant scientific and non-partisan investiga- tion. prejudice or preconcede ideas to de- cide what shall be the policy of the people. Speaking from the citizens' point of view, it would seem that any government will have to turn many sharp corners in order to meet with ever changing economic conditions that will face the people of the world during the next few years. Here are a few figures that were brought to this office by one of our subscribers. He has made certain statements as to the meaning of these figures. It will be the business of our political lead- ers to find out if these statements are correct. In the month of December the im- ports for Canada were reduced $24, 000,000 over the month of December, 1929; and in the same month of 1980, the exports from Canada were re- duced $22,000,000 over the month off, December, 1929. If this result has been obtained by reason of the extra duties on the Can- adian importations, then it is a fair influence to say that our extra tariff has destroyed a profitable business of $22,000,000 a month, so as to build up an unprofitable business of $24,- 000,000 a month, which could not ex- ist unless many millions of dollars are paid by the consumer in. extra taxation.
