The effect of a Fall wheat movement that has shattered all records has not yet shown up in the farmer's income tax and wata't show up until next year. Nor will higher production be translated into corporation tax collections for another six months or more. This means that instead of having to forecast his reve- nues tor 1964-65 eniirely on the expected growth this year he is assured of higher re- venues on the basis of what has already happened. . Mr. Gordon says main asu- mates for the year are $200 million less than had been contemplated two or three months ago. Again this Is cryptic but with defence CAPITAL HILL (ZAPSFLES current years. Because of as nature it will have very mtfe impact on this year's tax re- venues. Through pressures from business that impressed ms Cabinet colleagues, perhaps unduly, Mr. Gordon was iarc- ed to retreat from his original budget proposal tur an 11 pgr cent sales tax on building materials and production ma- chinery. It was reduced to tour per cent as the first step in a graduated scale that reaches 11 percent only on December 31 this year. The amount that this rob: bed him of in the current year's revenues will be re- turned next year with a good deal added. It there were no increase in the current level of sales over the next 15 months his revenues from sales tax would be $166 tml. lion higher than in the Cul- rent year. Canada's gross national pro- duction for 1963 turned out to be one per cent higher than Mr. Gordon forecast last June.

If a teenager is slapped around for throwing paper something is amiss somewhere. De- puty-Chief Murray aid the force had "lost many valuable men" because of discipline. which is also a rather odd statement. If men do not obey, how can they be consider- ed valuable' QUESTION OF THE WEEK. Monday night, Me- tro Deputy Police Chief Murray, Traffic Division, appear- ed on CBC's "generation", a program which delves into the problems at teenagers. One of the youths in attend- ance described how he had been slapped around by the police after he "threw a piece of paper at a football game". The deputy-chief made no effort to solve the matter, he simply asked the boy why he hadn't reported this to headquarters. "You probably forgot about it the next day", he said. If the youth had been treated as he decrib, ed, he cannot be blamed for staying as far away from a police station as possible. And in the women's slalom event. the ABC TV an- nouncer openly cheered the American entries. Not that we blame him for this. but why should we be forced to watch. when we're footing the bill for a national TV net- work that should have been alert enough to have someone on the spot. It probably would have had a morale boosting effect on our athelets as well as providing us with first-hand reports. - In the light of his last statement the deputy-chief may fear the loss of more "valuable men" if he probes too far. A real witch doesn't bother with petty scratching. In a fit of anger a true witch would turn the target of her wrath into a duck billed Platypus or something. She usually did this by passing a potent potion of ground vamnire fangs and werewolf earlobe: to her victim. Let us hope the CBC pr CTV getgqon the ball for the summer Olympics. Someone should tell the TV ivory towers three district girls hold world track records and Bruce Kidd, Bill Crothers and Harry lemme are all among world leaders in their events. FANS IN THE GARBAGE. Toronto "fans" luv. ruched ' new low in thcir effort, to dim a rapport with Dice 1nd Liz. It stems some of them have been rooting about in the refuse receptacles outbid; the door of the coupU's hats] suit: looking for souvenm. A couple of ladies found a discarded bouquet of to“: and went into fits at ecstasy. One of these, a pchool teacher, intends to show one of the rose: to her class. "Ther'lt just about have £31.", she is reported to have exclaimed. " And there dear readers lies the gap in my education. I never had a teacher who cargd enough to rummage around in a garbage can containing the trash discarded by the couple of the moment (at that time it was Ingsid Bergman and Roberto Rosselini) for something to just about give me fits. Ye.s, I'm afraid our teachers. who at that time were grossly underpaid, didn't have the same get-up-and-go as their modern counterparts, who m most cases are over- paid. Our teachers were stern of mien and tolerated no nonsense. They harbored the illu,ion that their job was to teach us. What a waste! Had they known we were secretly yearning for a piece of leftover lasagna from the Bergman - Rosselini dinner table, they would have taken the next sampan to French Indo-China. Those teachers had a sense of values! Richard Burton is one of the three best classic actors, in the world, For this he deserves acclaim. Elizabeth Taylor is one of the three best sex symbols in the world. For this she deserves Eddie Fisher? The idiocity of Toronto garbage grubbers, is exceeded only by the sub-committee in the good ol' USA which recommended revoking Burton‘s visa because his amorous activities are detrimental to the morals of pure-as-the- blood-of-the-lamb Americans. WHICH IS WITCH? Hamilton's football team isrit the only group to bring the city a measure of fame. Last week the police force carved its initials on the treetrunk of posterity by charging a 21-year-old woman with witch- craft. It is believed by all the (food living people of Ham- ilton that this is the first time the charge (Section 308 of the Criminal Code) has been laid in that fair city. Of course in the bid days. witches were burned A the stake. Today they can moke it as models for Vogue mag- azingigr nurses on TV programs. When I was a bit younger the word "witch" set me to conjuring cinemascope, technicolor productions at pow- dered toad livers boiling in a giant kettle of baths blood and serpent venom. A far cry from the candles, egg and saucer of sand involved in the Hamilton case. Let's face itzvit's a poor cemurv for witches. With the main brew ingredients as scarce as they are and all these foreign objects orbitting the broompaths, Witching is going the way of buggywhip manufacturing. . There are some who say there are witches today, ex- cept they've given up their brooms for convertibles and their high hats for houffam hairdos. I can't buy this. These gals may act like witches, but then this is common of the whole female sex. This business of messing around with a crushed egg and a saucer of sand is certainly not the mark of a bona fida witch. I think Hamilton is just train: to grab a big splash of publicity to take the heat off the city's losing battle to keep the football Hall of Fame. OLYMPIC BEEFS. What Channel 0 is yawning off as "exclusive Canadian coverage" of the Olympic games leaves a bit to be desired. This however. is due to the fact no Canadian TV network has any men on the spot, and is not the fault of the American network. which is piped through Channel 9. V On Sunday's show despite the Canadian two-man bob sled team's 4th place finish, not once did the Canadian sled appear on the screen. Instead we were forced to watch the Yankee sleds, which finished fifth and lower in the standings. What kind of a witch brew can be made with eggs? Ordinary chicken eggs, No self respecting witch would be caught dead dipping her claws into something as un- esutic as egg.
