When 1953 figures are available. increases are anticipated in both instances.

In another article reviewing 1958, we find the following: “‘Sil- ver Fox made the strongest come- back among the more unorthodox

showing as a new favorite for early fall, especially in boa form.’

The above statement was cor- rect regarding silver fox, which, when offered in good quality and attractive makeup, continued to find purchasers. The ~feater part of its success is-due to Fromm Bros., ‘Visconsin, who had ke pt selections from thgir best ‘foxes of years ago; and were ready with good quality skins when the market brightened. They also brought in a new mutation, which looks as if’ it will be a winner.

Huwison Bay Company fur sal-

es in New York states that the attendance was Zood, with the largest representation from over- seas noted during the season. A breakdown of colors shows that Cerulean types were 61 percent sold; argenta types were 51 per- cent sold; miscellaneous muta- tions. 91 percent sold.

Steady Recovery

CLEVELAND (AP)—The steel | adustry continued its steady re- | covery last week and mills turned

j out- their biggest tonnage since October, 1957, Steel Magazine re- | ported Sunday.

j Production was estimated at | 2,108,000 tons of steel, or 74.5 per cent of 1959's. ratel capacity. “| That would be comparable to 7

cent of 1958 capacity.

Steel producers added 6.900.000 | tons of capacity during the past year, boosting the total annual| figure to a record 147,633,670 tons. |

The metalworking weekly said , sheets continue to pace the steel market as automakers, appliance) | manufacturers and other big cus-! | tomers step up their consumption | or replenish dwindling stocks.

The magazine forecast a mod- erate pickup in pig iron prodyc- tidn this year, adding that output will be below the 1957 peak of| 78,375,378 net tons but ahead of the estimated 56,500,000 tons for, the year. just endel. The growth in consumer goods‘sales in spark- ing the improvement in outlook, steel said.

MONTREAL (CP)—Officials of A.V. Roe (Canada) Ltd. and Do- minion Steel and Coal Corpora- tion repert some job vacan- cies, mostly for uffSki work- ers, are open to Springhill, N.S..,

ners. Miners of Springhill have been out of work since the mine dis- aster of last Oct. 23.

The officials said Saturday all the jobs are outside the Spring- hill are

The Roe-Dosco staff, headed by John van Hemert of Montreal, has made a canvass of industries ‘hroughout the country seeking jobs for the miners.

“These men have an aptitude for many*types of unskilled and semi-skilled work,”’ said Mr. van Hemert. “They would be particu- larly adaptable to work in heavy

industry as helpers to such trad- esmen as carpenters, plumbers, pipefitters and others.”

He said company officials, along with government agencies, have also been engaged in-efforts to locate new industries in Spring- hill.

“So far we have come up with nothing concrete in the way new industry, but our efforts will continue,” he said.

A. L. Fairley, J executive vice-president of Dost. said re- garding the 200 job vacancies: “As reluctant as we are to see people leave Springhill — and I think this‘ feeling is shared by Canadians everywhere—We sin- cerely recommend the men take

mace by truly public - spirited Canadians.”

‘Huge Bonus To Oil Industry _May Be Presented This Year

By KEN KELLY Canadian Press Staff Writer OTTAWA (CP)—The Canadia.u »il industry may get a big cash penus this year, perhaps ranging as high as $60,000,000.

The money has been piling up) ‘n the federal treasury during the *st few years while the federal! overnmment and the industry's zgest operator, ' Imperial Oi! Limited, fought out in the courts 2 question of interpretation of

regulations under the Income Tax Act. The immediate issue in-the-

case involves the amount Imper- ial-could claim as a deduction | ‘rom 1951 profits before taxes— the so-called one-third ‘‘depletion allowance.” The oi] cOmpany made two calculations—one set- ting the deductiop at $13,023.000 and the other at $10,334,000. The government argued the proper deduction was $790,067. TOTALLED PROFITS —

Imperial! arrived at its first fig- ure by totalling the profits from each of ifs oil and gas wells that produced at a profit, taking ne account of wells that.produced at a loss or wells that were drilled but capped without getting into preduction. One - third of this profit figure gave Imperial the $13,023,000 figure. ~ |

The second deduction figure was computed by Imperial as

that produced at a profit less the! losses from wells that brought a loss in that year.

The federal government on the other hand .contended Imperial was entitled only to one-third of $2,370,202. which represented the profit from oil and gas produc- ‘ion from all Imperial wells

whether profitable or not.

When the case was decided in the Exchequer Court of Canada, Mr. Justice J. T. Thorson, the court president, ruled that Im- perial’s second deduction figure was the correct one—the figure based on aggregate of profits from producing wells less aggre- gate of losses from wells that lost money.

RULED HAD RIGHT

He said Imperial had a perfect right under the income tax reg- ulations to keep strict account of the profit and loss position of each well individually and use this as a basis of calculating the one - third depletion allowance parliament approved in the in- come tax act

Mr. Justice Thorson forecast an appeal to the Supreme Court on the question, noting that Im- ~crial’s claims a.one for back axes on this question total more han $40,000,000.

A number of éther Canadian oil companies also have Icdged appesis seeking tax refunds, all on the same issue. The tax
