OTTAWA (CP) — The gov- ernment’s legislation increasing worker-employer contributions to the unemployment insurance fund was again raked with criticism in the Commons Tuesday.

Paul Martin (L—Essex East) said the government has evaded its responsibility by “imposing” on labor and industry increased contributions averaging 30 per cent.

He said that under amendments to the Unemployment Insurance Act, contributions to the fund will be increased by some $100,000,000 of which the government would pay $16,000,000. The rest would come from workers and employ- ers whose

When the Liberals had ex- tended henefits under the act, they had replenished the fund out of consolidated revenue, that is, general taxation, But the Progres- sive Conservatives were imposing new taxation on a segment of the population.

Mr. Martin said Labor Minister Starr ‘would not even defend the measure in the Commons. Mr. Starr, in the House, did not reply. The only Progressive Conser- vative who had spoken in favor of the bill was Theogene Ricard, St. Hyacinthe - Bagot, who had contended that the legislation was weleomed by laboring groups.

Yanks Stay At Home’ Campaign Seen Blow To Canada’s Tourism

tourists and keep Amerieans at home will seriously hurt Canada’s multi - million-doHar tourist busi- ness by 1960, the Senate tourist traffic committee was told Tues- day.

John Fisher, executive director of the Canadian Tourist Associa- tion, said a “gigantic program” to ‘promote the U.S. tourist in- dustry is being organized for 1960 with the blessing of President Eisenhower. é

It was being supported by all levels of government, tourist as sociations and large business cor- porations. The aim was to re- verse the post - war trend of

Americans travelling in other countries. Mr. Fisher said 1960 1s heing

billed “as Travel in U.S.A. Year. Arrangements were being made even to facilitate the entry of for- eigners to boost the U.S. tourist business.

SEES DIFFICULT YEAR

The U.S. program to attract tourists will “make our situation much more difficult in 1960," he said.

(The government estimates that Canada’s tourist deficit with all countries last year totalled $192,- 000,000. Canadians also spént $102,000,000 more in the U.S. than American spent in this country).

Mr. Fisher said the federal and provincial governments, private industry and the tourist business should take five main steps to

encourage visitors to Canada. 1
