Taxation Needs , , a of Later Yeah. i Brought Crisis

_ (By Carl Retake) ifianndlan Press sun Writer) OITAWA. Nov. 22-Inadequacy

01 Provincial revenues to meet ob- lllltions, a. defect which may be irflwl in lnrse decree back to the Confederation arrangements, looms large in the inquiry by the Royal Commission on Dominion-Provin- cial relations which begins its hear. inns at Winnipeg the end of this month.

While public attention has been focussed considerably (m the pilghi; of the prairie provinces, a condit- ion has developed in most provinces during the depression which gave rise to renewed demands for a re- examination oi taxing powers and obligations. ‘

At Confederation ihe provinces retained their right to impose di- rect taxation but gave up their in- direct tomes to the federal govem- mcnii which acquired unlimited tax- ing powers for Dominion purposes.

-In return for customs and. excise taxes, which had provided the pro- vinces most oi their revenue, the Dominion granted three classes of subsidies to the provinces: (a) in- terest on debt allowance; (p) an- nual grants for support of provin- clalgovernments; (c) annual grants an c. per capita basis.

The theory of the arrangement In that Confederation would re- duce the cost of provincial govern- ment by shifting to the federal gov- ernment many burdens previously home by the provinces. Advocates of “provincial rights" have since repeatedly condemned the ar- rangement as a poor bargain for the provinces, pointing out that the provinces, gave up $11,500,968 in cus- toms and excise in 1B8’? and got back $2,753,966 iii subsidies. last year subsidies io the provinces to- failed $13,768,053 whle 0118001115 and excise accounted for $118,414.- 35‘! of the Domlnlorfs revenue. The claim has sometimes been made that Confederation took away 90 per cent of the taxing powers of the provinces but only about 55 per

The loiul was carried without ex- treme hardship on the provinces until the depression. The familiar Story of increased expendtures and decreased revenues occurred. Only through direct aid by the Dominjon government were several provinces saved from default. The present financial position of the provinces is sometimes held to be a temporary one that would be solved by one good crop or sustain- ed normal industrial actlvlty. The fact remains that provinces enjoy- ing normal revenue, or better, are unable to balance their budgets. British Columbia last year had the biggest revenue in its history but it could not meet its unemploy- ment relief bill by several million dollars. Manitoba had a good crop this year and at a good price but it has failed to balance its budget by three or four millions a year for half a dozen years. New Brunswick finds it difficult to make ends meet. Ontario has benefitted from sub- stantial windfalls in the form of overdue succession duties and has , an overall surplus. Relief costs have dropped consid- erably with the improvement in business conditions but a large rec- idue of permanent unemploymefll appears to have been left. Evidence generally indicates the inability of the province to finance their present obligations with life!- ent taxation sources-and the bur- den of social legislation 9111011595 V’ become steadily heavier, rather than lem.

Joe Cooper Abdicates As

Ranger Jester

NEW YORK, Nov. 22—(CP)— Joe Cooper has abdicated as jester of New York Rangers’ dressing- room. He had heard threats of a straitjacket. or even worse.

Feeling that things bordered on the funereai since Chlng Johnson, prarlkster de luxe, had gone ovcr to Americans, big Joe set out to add a little sparkle to life. He snipped off the ties of a number of fellow players with a pocket knife. Nothing more serious than loss of the ties occurred until Joe reached Neil Coiville and Neil reached to save his tie.

The knife cut deeply into Col- ville's right hand. It took three stitches to close the wound and Neil was forced to sit on the bench last night while Rangers were playing ail-Ii tie with Montreal Maroons.

"I was just trying to fill in for Citing." explained Joe, who is sometimes called the Dizzy Dean of hockey. "But I guess I'd bet- ter reform."
