In vain the genial president of the Green Chamber has tlubwn public works staff and protective staff officials out of their offices on the ground floor of the build- ing and put mcmbQs in their places. The clamor still goes on and Dr. Fauteux protests that he is not an architect and even if he were, doesn't see how he could make 245 offices from 155 rooms.

Britain And France Sign 50-year Treaty

(By Joseph E. Dyuim)

DUN UE, France, March 4 -(AP)—A treaty binding France and Greet Britain to act jointly against any possible future aggres- sion by Germany and pledging the two countries t9 a 50-year alliance was signed here today by Foreign Mlnﬁsters Bevin and Bidault.

The pact also calls for mutual action by France and Great Bri- tain in the event Germany de- faults‘ in any of the economic ob- ligations imposed in he_i- surrender orirl the forthcoming Gelwnpii peace settlement.

The two countrl-ss, under the treaty's terms, also will “take all possible steps to promote the bros- perlty and economic security" of eucli other. e

All the pacts provisions, the text stated explicitly are subject to the provisions of the charter of the United Nations,

BevI-n and Bidault affixed their signatures. to the Dact in the tiny

Dunkcrquc sub-prefecture build- ing, the largest structure still standing iii the devastated c.ty

where, in i940. the German army inflicted on BritaI-n her greatest defeat of the Sect-ltd World War.

Bldault has announced that the same treaty provisions would he offered to "the other great Allies" and to the Netherlands. Belgium, Poland and Czechoslovakia. Th:- treoty also has been described as a possible forerunner of a Big- Four pact. such ‘as thatoproposerl last year by the former United States Secretary of State. James FEByrncs. to cement Alli-ed acwrd in relations with Germany.

At the ceremony. Bevin mid: an allusion to this, expressing pleas- ure that "unlike 1919, the United Qiates 1s ready to develop further treaties and further commitments on behalf of ivorltl peace."

Thousands of Dunkerques citi- zens gathered in the Plaza outside the small building where the 34- minute signing ceremony W“ W0" ducted. Only about 50 witnessﬁi could be crowded into the sub- prefecture salon.

Bidault declared that the cere- mony replaced an unwritten t}!- lianee wl-th a written one, "provid- in; destiny in common for the next 50 years."

Help The +Red Cross i

UITAWA, March 4—(CP)—~l"in- once Minister Abbott announced today in the Commons that the Government, in an effort to rio- vide taxation relief for the gold mining industry, has decided to increase the depletion allowances of mines and to extend encourage- ment glveii to new mines.

Mr. Abbott, explaining that gold production had dropped 47 pct" cent since 194i, slid the taxation relief proposals were three-prong- ed and \vould:-

1. Increase the depletion allow- ance foi" gold mines from 33 1-3 to 40 per cent of profits earned on and after Jan. 1, 1947. This, he laid, would apply to mines the value of whose output is to the extent of 70 per cent or more gold.

2. Increase from $2 to $4 an ounce the depletion allowed tow- grade marginal mines. This pro- vl-sion, applicable to gold produced after June 30, last, would be of benefit to every company wilﬂsC profit marlin an ounce is lens than 810.

3. New mines. now given a three- year tax exemption, in addition

that made them, for iaxatton pur- poses, write-off depreciation and pro-production expenses during the tax-free period.

The new mines now will be able lo delay the write-off; ti-rtil the end of the tax-free period. The mite-offs lhlls will apply against a mines income in a year when it is paying taxes. Complaint against the cxlstinl! plan was that it for- ced new tnl-nes to apply the write- offs against incomes in years ivhen they did not have to pay taxes.

Mr. Abbott said the Government had given careful and sympathetic consideration to a number of other raiggcsttons which had been made. For instance, there had been some t-ilk ln tlic press of an out.- rlght subsidy for gold production.

"It is significant, however, that this was not urged by those who speak on behalf of the industry as a whole," said Mr. Abbe-it. “In the Government's view, at a time when subsE-dies on essential foodstuffs and other commodities arc being withdrawn, it would be molt, ln- a ropriste to embark upon a pol- icy of subsidizing gold-mining oper-

with 31.610.000.000 for the current: fiscal year. Normal expenditures were estimated at 81.304.459.601),

Lesa for Defence. Veterans

Mr. Abbott, i-n a press statement issued after the estimates-o 680- page blue book jammed with fig- ures-were tabled, said that all demobilization and reconversiori services showed substantial re- ductions. For instance, it was ex- pected that the total expenditures of the Departments of Defence and Veterans Affairs would be slashed by approximately $300,000,000 each.
