Discusses Taxation

Premier Meighen devoted most

of his time to discussing taxation from all its angles, speaking of tho methods which had been adopted during the wsr and comparing the course taken by the Dominion with what has been done hy Great Bri- tain and other countries. Dealing with the income taxation' he point- ed out 'that while many believed that not enough had been done in that way, there were many things to consider by those who would go

farmers of Canada, he pointed out that the taxes on implements to- day were aboutthe same as had been in force 20 years ago. There has always been a tendency for all

The situation as it affected the

famiers was as good as it had been under past governments. Speaking of the policy of the Government regarding changes in taxation, he said that it was tho intention of the Cabinet _to get from the people the best moms of making changes if changes were necessary, and for this purpose a commission was to visit tho country and seek the ad- vice or the people. He urged that all business msn to give the best

Speaking of the reduction oi’

rural population in Canadu, the premier claimed that the figures showed that even while there had been a 'slight decrease the situat- ion was not nearly so grave as in other countrieaand that there was

no need for alarm.

condition of the farmer was better today than formerly was the ini crease in the value of farm-pr-0. hefty- H0 Dollllqd out thot the sys- tem ot taxation in force could not be unfair to the farmer when in. creased had been as great as an av. Bron of 46 per cent from 1010 to
