New Excise Tax Collection Method Planned For Cars

OTTAWA (CP)-Finance Minis- ter Harris Thursday announced plans for a change in excise tax collections on automobiles aimed at avoiding a pre-budget slow- down ln factory shipments oi cars.

He told the Commons, however. that his announcement cannot be regarded as an indication oi whether he plans to make any change in the level of the presen 10-per-cent excise tax on cars.

Mr. Harris said that at this time each year. just before presenta- tion of the annual federal tax change budget. car dealers are re- luctant ,to accept deliveries of new cars from manufacturers.

Since the excise tax is collected on delivery. dealers feared that they would have to absorb any re- duction in the tax on cars in stock at the time of the budget. Mr. Harris said his plan would delay collection of the tax until ownership of the car actually passed to the dealer. instead of at the time of delivery from the fac-

tow.

Mr. Harris said the present method of collecting the tax on goods when they are shipped from the manufacturer will continue for other goods coming under excise

tax.

Re did not elaborate on how his plan will work. but it appeared that to be effective it would re- quire some further arrangement between auto makers and dealers covering the time when ownership

A petition to have a Royal Com- mission established to investigate the educational problems existing in the Province was presented to Premier A.W. Matheson and mem- bers of the Executive Council yes- terday afternoon.

At the conclusion of the discu

ions, Premier Matheson told the representative group that he could not promise them a Royal Com- ,mission but gave assurance that line matters brought forth would be given careful consideration by himself and the membe n of his Government. Mr. Matheson thank- ed the delegation and told them that a number of points brought out in the discussion would be help- ful to the Government in dealing with the situation.

The following groups were re presented in the presentation: Prince Edward Island Federation of Home and School. Mrs. .l.G MacDonald. K.A. Parker and Rev. Eric Robin; Federation of Agricul- ture, J. Lincoln Dewar; Women's

It was the general consensus oi the group that there was a neces- sity for arousing public interest in the educational situation on the Island and that a Royal Commis- sion whose findings would be im- partial would offer the best med- lum through which such interest could be aroused.

St. Dunstan's University debat- ing team composed of Ian Gillies and Lorne MacGulgan last night took a unanimous decision over Dalhousie University Law School and Derek Wiggs.

The debate was held at St. Dunstan's University Gymnasium and was the third regularly sche- duled debate of the season. St. Dunstan's has now won all three debates. This assures them of at least a tie for the Maritime Cham- pionship which will be dependent upon the outcome of the debate between St. F.)(. and U.N.B. which will be held on February 15.

UNITED NATIONS. N.Y. (CF) The Egypt-Israeli deadlock Thurs- day night appeared to be back at the danger level again.

Despite almost five days of ne- goiation by Secretary - General Dag Hammarskjold Israel's and Egypt's positions have remained unchanged. Unless some new ap- proach leads Egypt and Israel to relax their adamant stands. in- formed sources say, the UN may be forced to accept defeat.

There were rumors Thursday that External Affairs Minister Pearson of Canada. one of the leaders of the efforts to break the deadlock. will retum from Ottawa to join further attempts at pre- venting renewed warfare.

Pearson did not join the United States in sponsoring the resolu- ,tlons which called again for an Is- raeli withdrawal from the Gaza Strip and the Gulf of Aqaba but left undefined the resulting moves by the UN.
