Principal Chengu

The principal tax changes eu- nounced were: Personal income tax increases doub" ,, the amounts PB able by lower income groups;

creases in the national defence tax from two to five per cent and from three to seven per cent.

Raising the minimum income taxable under the defence tax from $600 to $660;

A high lo on interest and divi- dends payabe outside Qanads;

Increases in excise taxee on automobiles, buses, beer, malt, wine. carbonic acid gas (for soft. drinks), cosmetics and toilet, p". Darations. sugar, glucose, corn syrup and some other roducts;

A succession duty to e imposed in addition to provincial succes- sion duties;

A three-cent per gallon excise tax on gasoline-

A tax on railway, bus end air- line tickets;

A motion picture admission tax and a levy on money wagered at race tracks;

Tariff reductions designed to facilitate the sale of British goods in Canada.

(The increase from one to two cents in the sugar excise tax ac- tually has been in effect for some weeks-since Mr. Ilsley ordered the

rice raised one cent at refineries o stop a. rush of speculative buy-

ing in anticipation of today's budget.) Mr. llsloy announced the

Provinces would be asked to withdraw from the income tax field, both personal and cor- poratlon for the duration of the war. In return the Do- minion would grant them an amount equal to their collec- tions from these taxes In the last fiscal year or the net service on their provincial debt less revenue obtained from succession duties during that period.

'I‘he other major invasion of the provincial tax field was the impo- sition of the three-cent gasoline tax. Mr. Iisley said this was nec- essary both for" revenue and for conservation of foreign exchange. If provincial revenues from gaso- line taxes fall below those received in i940 the Dominion will make up the difference.

Provincial gasoline taxes are e-

bout eight cents a alion. Todays step was the first cderul tax on gasoline.

Reviewing financial operations for the past year the Minister said revenues turned out to be $100,000,- 000 more than that budgeted for last. July by his predecessor, Hon. J. L. Ralston, and reached the un- precedented figure of $871,571,000. This, with expenditurgs of $1,226,- 827000 left an over-all deficit of $395.056-000.

Mz-Rlisley said it was difficult to estimate the amount of the ad- verse balance arising from pur- chases in the United states and fi- nancing of British purchases in Canada. On the basis of present information it appeared "the dif- ference between Britain's deficit with us and our deficit with the. United States will be between $800,- 000,900 and $900,000,000 in the cur- rent year."

Adding to this the amount of the prospective budgetary deficit he er- rived at a sum of 1,418,000,000 to

, 000.000 to be obtained by new taxes and borrowing. with the new taxes expected to produce $300,000,- 000 and increased payments into the treasury in other respects estimated at $200,000,000 about ti, .- 000,000 remained to be borrowed from the people.

“I need not tell you that be raise such en amount will re- quire such u great, increase fn the savings of the Canadian people that. the help of every men, woman end child will be required," said Mr. Ileley.

"It will require also the careful limitation of our commercial end industrial investment to such plant and equipment ee will eid in ou- rylng on the war and es is neces- sary to essential services."

with this in view the Minister announced an order-fn-councii ef- fective ioday to require a pennft from any person or firm erecting buildings for commercial or indus- trial use or installing machinery and equipment end providing in the 01111806 for removal of the exemp- tion of building materials from the sales tax.

starting at 15 per cent on the first 81.000 of taxable income the rates rise to B5 per cent at the top of large incomes, not including ne- tional defence tax.

The Minister said with income

taxes eo high s greater distinction

shoal be made between earned. and investment income. so the present eurtex on fnveetment in- come would be replaced by e new

tax on sll- investment income of

more than $1.500.

No change was made in the eu- cmption or $750 for single and 9i,- 500 for married persons, nor m the allowance of 9400 each for children and dependents

PRINCE COUNTY CHRONICLE

N. Y. paper Opens campaign AgainstFascists

By Leon Edel - Canadian Prom staff Writer

NEW YORK. Apriig29 ~(CP) - The New York Evening newfilmlfiel‘ PM has declared what, it describes as its own “slate of emergency." and is putting out a unique series of issues devoted io answering the

question "The Fascists are still winning . what are we going to do about it?"

With news cut to what on edi- tor described as the “irreduceable minimum," the paper is giving over 16 pages a day to a study of what Fascism has accomplished and the fate that has awaited the nations who have done little to resist its inroads.

Large picture spreads illustrate graphically the points PM is seek- in to drive home.

gaturdays PM had pictures of liynchings of Klu Klux Klan leaders, gangsters, Gemian-American Bund members, and anti-union spies. la- belling these forces as the ones which intimately could be the Fas- cists of America.

An earlier issue, to illustrate the defeatism of Col. Charles A. Lind- bergh. presented a series of pictures of the Dempsey-Firm fight,

fight and yet clinched the victory in a stunning come-back. This was PM’s way of answering Lindberglfs statement that Britain would be defeated.

"We consider the present situa- tion so serious," PM says, "that we gun; in our reporting of the dilly-

-day hows to take stock of it. ,

The newspaper says that these special sections will "go on HD1193!" In until we have had our say.

o full ‘page! of pictures show France waiting behind the Maglnot Line for the Fascists to attack, "how they stayed put and watch- ed to see where the Fascists would corne from."

111911 l, page o! maps, showing the countries which waited for Hit- ler to come, or tried to appease him. starting with Austria and ending with Greece.

A full page illustrated article telils Why "we can't wait for Hitler's vic- tims to revolt," explaining how e tank can command a whole street and e machine-gun hold hundreds at. bay-

Today the newspaper carries the idea e.lo w h two separate spreads“ pictures. The first calls upon the United states to invent and develop new methods and in- strurnents of warfare: the second, under the caption "these are our side as long as Cir-bi, Britain holds out," shows British battleships, British and Imperial soldiers, and the Royal Air Force, all in action.

“What price Beauty” under New budget

i i i

OTTAWA, April 29 — (CP) —1 "what price beauty" had a stemer, nariiflcnnce to Canadian ivomun‘ when Finance Minister Ilsley in his third lvariimc bilzlgct announced todnv an lXICYCJSC from i0 per ccul to’ 25 per cent on all cosmetic and toilet preparations ‘

Many women in the gallery of the Commons, leaned forward expect.- zinily when Mr. Ilsley reached. the mac-me tax and indirect taxes on commodities and service-vchere very single and married Canadian‘ woman knows her personal budget to be involved.

A little mental arithmetic added 15 per cent to every package of shampoo, every bottle of fingr-ri polish, face powder and ivcinkle‘ cream, without counting eycbrwv pencil, beauty masks, CVQIQSJI curl-- crs and a hundred other things which go to make milady beautifu.

“if these taxes mean more sziv-‘ ings," the minister said, “then the‘ government will be all the better pleased."

The cosmetic tux brought an en- thusiastic burst of applause from House members, still digesting an item of three cents per gallon on gasoline.

An increase from l0 to it cents a pack on playing cards \v:ll be felt among the thousands of women who are bridge addicts, While the in- crease from five cents to 25 cents per pound for carbonic acid gas- from which soft drinks are made, will catch business Rirls.

Mr. Ilsiey announced an increase of one cent a pound in the excise tax on sugar but this will not have any new effect on housekeeping costs. The price increase was order- ed some weeks ago by the minister to curb e. rush of speculative bug- irur of sugar in anticipation of t e budget.
