"At the depth of the depression in the Unitéd States there were only about one and one- half million unemployed in the con- sumption goods' industries, as against six and one-third million in the build, ing and durable goods industries." According to the "Report of the President of the United States on National Recovery and Unemploy- ment," only three percent. of those normally engaged in goods for con. sumption are unemployed, as against forty-seven percent. of those engaged in buildings and durable goods indus- tries. : : Do not these facts show the para- mount importance of . encouraging building operations? ~~ The best and most efficient way to do. this is to ex- empt new buildings from taxation for a term of years, say ten. This will involve no increase in taxation, no government interference with private enterprise, and will be the only ra- tional and constructive idea that any government has made to solve the un- employment problem since the depres- sion started in 1929. Will the new Ontario Government give us leader- ship in the matter? ------------re®wosr-- PETITION Premier of Ontatio. - Honourable Sir: The Petition of the undersigned. . as hii BER IE AER OE A NT ELLE is as follows: Whereas the unemployment situa- tion has lasted nearly four years, and whereas all attempts to alleviate con- ditions, in- spite of the expenditure of public money, so far have been prac- tical failures as far as restoring pros- perity and promoting re-employment is concerened, and whereas it is esti- mated that there are five times as many unemployed in the building and allied trades than in all other classes of unemployed, and whereas the volume of building in Ontario as shown by Government reports and the MacLean Building Reports has- fallen off 80% since 1929, and whereas the building and furnishing of 'houses represents nearly 76% of all indus- tries: ) 5 ~~ We humbly pray, that the-plight of the building industry receive the special attention of the Government and that, 'if necessary, a drastic emergency measure, such as an' ex- emption from taxation for a term of years for all new buildings erected within the next three years, be en- acted as soon as possible for it is obvious from the facts presented that to solve the unentployment in the building trade will greatly increase employment and bring about the end- ing of bad times and the restoration of prosperity.
