Highlights or speech

In a 7.500-word speech. Mr. Mac- donnell said: 1. The government timed tax re-

later this year. 2. Approximately '15 per cent of

from the personal income tax re- ductlons.

3. Far greater tax cuts could have been given if the government made an "urgent" attack on waste

V and extravagance.

4. A 597,000,000 reduction in cor- poration taxes was long overdue. 5. Abolition of the M50 annual radio licence fee would be welcom- ed, but he disagreed with a pro- posal to turn over to the CBC the revenue from the existing 15 per cent tax on radio and television sets.

6. Somevwere maliciously depic- ting the Progressive Conservative party-as a high tariff party when actually its policy was ' similar to that of the Liberals.

'1. something should be done im- mediately to ease the financial burdens of municipalities.

, "I realise that there are differ- ences of condition, notably that in Britain they have oonscript.ion.but nevertheless after all the adjust- ments an enormous disparity re- mains." -

Mr. Caldwell said his party be- lieve: most Canadians would glad- ly give up the "few minor conces-

ductions for an election, expected sions" in the budget for a country-

wide health insurance program. "The reductions in taxes given to corporations and shareholders." Mr. Ooldwell said. "could have been used to promote this program. thereby assisting..Canadlans from one end of the country to the other."

The outside total of reductions for Canadians makintz 5.000 or less in 1963-64 would be 376.500,- 01!). He said the wealthier would re- ceive reductions amounting to :lB'l,5m,00o, or a proportion of about '10 to I!) in their favor.

The principle of taxation in ac- cordance with ability to pay had been applied in reverse by Mr. Abbott.

"There has been no reduction in the general sales 10 per cent and special excise 15 per cent taxes which beer so oppresslvely on the lowentncome groups." Mr. Cold- well said. "Yet thus indirect and hidden taxes seriously reduce the standard of living of the lower- lncome Canadian."

"Nothing can be more ironical than that a budget should benefit to such a large degree those who are already well off. when there has been no provision to protect our people against the high cost of sickness,” Mr. Coldwell said. "Surely the minister is speaking with his tongue in his cheek when 'soclal divldend' budget, unless of course he had in mind the corporations and the shareholders."

For the lower-bracket taxpayers. Mr. Coldwell said,lt might be con- ceded "generously" that they get the benefits of the reduced cigaret taxes, abolition of the 32.50-a-year radio licence fee, a change in medical deductions for income tax purposes and half the benefits re- sulting from personal income tax reductions.

not complaining about the tax re- ductions as far as they went. But the budget "is all too little and too iate."

He added:

"The trouble is caused by one thing and one thing only, that this government will not grapple with the question of eliminating waste and extravagance...

"In general terms, we in our party say that if a sharp economy ax was used instead of a blunt pen-knife we could have relief for those who are to benefit under the present budget and also for those who have been ignored. "Remember that after all the blare of trumpets about tax re- duction the minister will actually take more out of our pockets this year than ever before-C4,4'73.000.- 000 compared with 54.376.000.000 in the current year."

Under the guiding hands of Pro- ducer-writer Nunnally Johnson and Director Henry Koster, "My Cousin Rachel" comes to the screen exactly as "the famous novelist wrote it, keeping intact the story which became an international best-seller. Scenarist Johnson has made no attempt to solve the mys- tery of whether "Rachel" was ,a murderess or not. Instead. he piles circumstantial evidence all about her exoneratlng her here -- con- victing her there. "Rachel is all things to all people, a charming widow, a scheming murderess, a gold-hungry adventuress, a help- less beauty, a ruthless heartbreak- er and a saintly nurse. Her guilt or innocen is left for the motion picture audience to decide.
