UITAWA, June 18--(CP)-8cet- tel-ed qbowers and good rain: in some districts have helped to innin- talh the generally satisfactory crop conditions established in the Prairie Provinces last week, the Dandelion Bureau of Statistics re- ported today.

"However,

In the Mnrltimes, the weather he: been cool and during the last two weeks. 8e ing is now practically co leted but nrowth has been slow. fruit crops are

oked for but more rain is neces- sary to maintain the prospects for strawberries. The outlook for the hay crop has declined but pastures continue satisfactory.

Seeding in Ontario is practically

completed and spring grains are growing well in central. south- western and northern parts uf the Province. With the exception of the Mont- real district. seeding in Quebec advanced relpldly during the inst two weeks and now is being quick- ly drawn to a close if not already completed. In many districts. irie cereals are progressing favorasly end for the Province as a whole the prospects are fair to good. As in the case of the cereal crops, the condition of -thc postures varies considerably and the hay crop is considered medium to excellent. The outlook for apples appears to be favorable.

Budget Speculation

Budget speculation in unofficial quarters has been that the Gov-

ot ernmont will follow the lead of

the British Government in re- moving all excess profits taxes, dfective at the end of the calen- dar year. A wartime measure, these tails were reduced in the ‘ dget amid conjecture that they woulchbe eliminated this year. There was siaxulor mecula-

“ tion on the possibility of reduc-

tm in corporation taxes.

It appealed certain that there would be some reduction — lust how much will remain secret un- iii budset niiht — in personal income taxes, which were given a flat iii-spot cent cut in the 1046 budget.

It was considered possible that this year, instead of making an over-all slash in taxation rates.

Additional fields for reduction would be among the taxes on jewelry amusements. soft drinks. cigarettes and other luxuries which were made a source of revenue during the war. l-ostmnster-Gencral Bertrand forecast a reduction in

. taxation on postage at the last

session of Parliament and it was believed this cut — possibly re- ducing the domestic letter mte from four to three cents —might be announced in this budget.
