Special Security Tax

The Winnipeg Iirce Press, disturbed over Mr. llsley's problem of reducing taxes while ex- penditure is so high, forecasts something that well my happen. The something is a special social security tax which would take the form 0f a percentage tax on all incomes.

The FFCL’ Press rejects the theory that soc- ial security measures, things like family allow- ances, in themselves create prosperity. It quotes the Sir-Dir, Commission report as saying that such measures —— "transfer payments” — do not directly add anything to the income of the com- munity as a whole, and afldSiviiTllC (slmlsl 11' port put no credence in the current tendency to regard them as a tiieans of assuming prosperity. As a people we cannot pull ourselves up by soc- ial security bootstraps, however desirable such measures may he in themselves.” ‘ ‘

Tim \Ni11nipcg paper proceeds: "The limit of social security spending . . . is the capacity 1nd willingness of the Dcoplc 1° Dllﬂ "P ti"? money. On the existing tax structure it would appear that the government must either main- tain substantially present tax levcls 0r fi-Cﬂ chronic deficits. But this Outlook Wctuld b6 materially changed if the government were to expand the contributory element already prcs- grit in the unemployment insurance fund. By means of a social security tax, the burden of family allowances at $250 millions per year. ti“, pfQpQ5Qd $30 per month old age pensions, $200 millions per year, and health insurance at, $130 millions per. year. 001110 be tlfﬁﬂtll’ “Sed-

“Such a tax could take the form of a pcr- ccntagc rate on all incomes with very low 5x- Qmptions and a ceiling 53y $3.000 P" Yfal-

This, predicts the Ottawa Journal, is what

we may well come to. The people who kept telling us that all these social security measures were going to increase the national income, and therefore wouldn't be felt, that they weren't go- ing to increase taxes, which would be progres- sively lowered as s00n as the war was over, now lnnow that they were wrong. The)’ ha" dls‘ covered that the production of wealth must precede its distribution, that it is not Possible f0 iticrease national income by having Jones spend Brown's money when Brown would have spent it himself‘, and, in their awakeniul!’ “WY a"? proposing to get out 0f their predicament by the device of a new tax.

Newfoundland’: Surplus

Newfoundland had a. surplus of $4,340,- 000 on revenue account for the fiscal year I945‘ 46, according to an announcement by Finance Commissioner \\'ild, who, howeverysairl he ex- pected a 4mm of .1. least $750,000 for no“ year. Newfoundlands fiscal year coincides with Canada's and ends on March 3f.

Total revenue for last year came t0 $33,‘ 437,000, this being an "all-time high" in the country's history. Ncwfotindlands estimated rcvcuue for next year is placed at $33,250,000, with expenditures expected to rise well in ex- "cess 0f $34,000,000. "

This latest surplus brings the Ancient Col- ony’s accumulated surpluses since I940 f0 $23,- 669,000. Financially at least, Commission Gov- ernment has proved a godsend t0 the people 0f Newfoundland.

The Soviet New Plan

Soviet Russia, while keeping the U. S. O. lively in international politics, is by no means neglecting her domestic interests. The new YSOviet Five Year Plan Calls for bringing up the

Senator Sinclair is to be congratulated on the stand he has taken on the Margarine Im- portation Bil], a measure initiated by a Liberal member of the Senate‘ in tlic sci-called inter- ests bf the consumer. As a inaittcr of fact it is much more likely to be in the interest of U, S. packers and exporters, who wish to increase their market for the waste fat of their pro- cessed productions. It is not in the interest of farmers 0r the consumers of Canada that but- ter should be substituted by a synthetic of in- ferior quality.‘ i I i

The provisional estimatcs of i945 income. earned by and taxes collcctable from,iudividu- als show that less than 200,000 persons carn- iniz from $3.000 to $10,000 annually constituted only about one-twelfth of all personal income taxpaycrs. Yettliey will contribute, according to the official analysis, close to 30 per cent of the total of individual income taxes collectable. The average, tax payable on incomes at these lev-. els is approximately $5300, ranging from four to I2 times as much as the average tax on those earning from $1,000 to $3,000,

London reports on the world food short- age give a very fair and correct picture of the situation, but omit one most important fact. [t is now realized in well-inf0rmcd circles that the U. K. Government deliberately withheld the pub-' lie announcement of the degree 0f the shortage, lest the result should be an increase in the price at which the U. K. has to buy food. This effect, of Government attempts to rig the market, is the inevitable result of Government sale and purchase of important coummoditics.

The British loans value to Canada and the U. K. depends on the intelligence of public pol- icics in both countries. Enough money is made available by it, to take a case, to pay for the entire Canadian exportable surplus of wheat for nearly three years, at the present price. Since the price of ivheat is bound to rise, the value of the loan will automatically alter when this oc- curs. The loan is big enough to give every iii- habitant of the U. K. $30 in Canadian goods, which is not a large addition to the consumptive capacity 0f the British people. Therefore, it is extremely important that the U. K. Govern- ment should conccntrate its buying in Canada on those goods whichrare needed to restore the functioning of the British economy; not 0n goods to improve the standard of living of the British people at once.

I Q i

No war for fifteen years at least is the ‘opinion of Dr. Leopold Infcld, professor of mathematics in Toronto, University. A genera- tion of proper education against the destructive use of the atomic bomb could bring world peace even thereafter in this opinion. Discussing Run- sia's knowledge of the atomic bomb he wagered that the U. S. S. R. would have the same knowl- edge of the bomb in I948 as iiow possessed by the United States. "Russia”, he said, "is not as far behind in knowledge of the bomb as peo- plc would like to think." The opinion of scien- tists on the matter ranged from two to six years. Russia would not think of an aggressive war for the next 15 years. This belief he placed in the necessity of Russia's need for developing its own territory and‘ rgstozlni!‘ W" 55111520 ‘
