Hr said his party would set up such a plan on the basis of 60 per ct-nl federal pa . - lion and to per cent by the prov- int-rs.

At a fcdt‘ral level. paymrnt would come from general reve« our and the provinces could sr- loci their own methods of rais- inlt their share.

Financing would not be a problem. he said. By haying a planned economy and putting everyone in work. the Gross Na- tional Product could be in- crcascd by uncommon an- nually. This would increase the government's revenue by about
