Siside Man Appointed Bank Of Canada Director

Delegation Meets Prime Minister. Cabinet I

OTTAWA, (CP) - A delegation; of Canadian mayors. concerned: over a worsening of municipal fin-A ances, today appealed to the fed-i, oral government to eliminate the 10-per-cent sales tax on municipal equipment and supplies.

In a meeting with Prime Min- later at. Laurent and his cablnet,, the delegation. representing the Canadian Federation of Mayorsi and Municipalities, urged also:

1. Payment of federal grants (in, all federal property in munlclpall-I tla, eliminating the four-per-centl assessme t qualification.

2. Calling of I. federal-provincial conference. to include municipality representation, to clarify the na- tional role of Canada's cities and towns and to find ways of provid-i ink them with the needed revenues to carry out their duties. i

The mayors, carrying to the cab-l inet resolutions adopted at their recent annual meeting. proposed a "comprehensive" national health plan without delay; increase its contribution to the cost of civil defence; make mortgage repay- irents easier; and help pay for education costs through agreement with provinces.

But the mayors are primarily concerned with finances and waysi of easing the local cost l'losd. l

The delegation, headed by fed- eration president .1. C. Asselin of Montreal, said the municipal fili- anclal position is "serious." There was no immediate crisis, but the tfaitustion is bound to worsen and reach a crisis stage." Even a slight recession could have "ad- verse effccts" on the municipali- ties. . , It realised that the federal gov-l emment cannot make direct con-i trlbutions to ease the municipal , make '-tiilbstsntialt tribfi-l tiohs" through modification of fed- eral tax and financial policies.

The federal government now makes grants in lieu of taxes on federal property in excess of four per cent of the assessment of local taxable and federal property com- blned. This representerl a "seri- ous" revenue loss to municipali-. ties. ,

"In justice and equity. the cost of providing municipal services to federal crown property should be a charge against the taxpayers of the" nation rather than those of the community in which federal crown property happens to be lo- cated." l

Eden Cables Washington;

, Urges Acceptance

LONDON, fCP)- Foreign sec- retary Eden was reported Friday to have cabled Washington that he thinks the Western Allies should accept Russia's latest bid for ll Big Four conference on Germany and Austria.

A foreign nffire. spokesman told a press conference that the British

government "welcomes the ac- ceptance of the proposal for s. four-power meeting which the

Western powers have renewed sev- eral limes."

Tliis reaction to the Kmmlln

note, handed to the Big Three Thursday night, differed consider- ably from declarations in Wash- ington by the U, S. stats depart- ment, which viewed the note as an obvious effort to slow down West- ern efforis to unite Europe and strengthen ils defences through in- clusion of West German troops. 'll e I-luesians yielded to the Wests insistence that the Big Four fnl'Pl,'.'l'l ministers meet without pre- liminary conditions. But. they did refer to past conditions and de-.' clared the Western Allies 9venl.'.i-i ally would have to meet with Red China as well as Russia to end world tensions.

Not Worth Arguing

The Soviets suggcsied the meet- ing lake place in Berlin but men- tinned no date. The West had pro- posed Luganm. Switzerland.

British officials are pictured by responsible informants as thinking the site not worth arguing about. But Allied officials in divided Ber- lin see an East-West feud brew- ing on whether the conference should be in the Communist-ruled East. sector or the Allied occupied West. sector of the city.

'Infol'mnl1i5 said British officials think lhn Allies should take the soviet no'c at face value and seek agreement on the long-delayed, German and Austrian treaties.

The qualified support for Laniel rind his cabinet rams in a vote of confidence on it weakly-worded resolution that said: "The Nation- al Assembly approves the govern- ments statements during a for- eign policy debate and asks that the policy of building in united Eu- rope be continued." A total of 100 deputies abstained.

Laniel immediately announced that he will go to Bermuda as planned. He. and Foreign Minister Georges Bldauit will take a plane next Wednesday for the Dec. 4-0 meeting with Prime Minister Chur- chill and President Eisenhower.
