OTTAWA. May l-t-The resolution providing for taxing sales and trans- fers of shares of stock, after a tam- pestuous passage last night, was fin- ally reportcdcut of committee as amended and stands for second reading. The proposal was to reduce the tax on stocks from one cent on s sliding scale and even that was opposed vigorously fbom all sides ex- repl by the Liberals, and had a nar- row squeeze of 52 to 44.

The debate, which losted through- out the evening, was featured by a slashing attack on the proposed tax by lfalcohn Lang. (Liberal, Temls- kaming South).

A carelessly thrown lighted match, or n. cigarette stump or even lighting may cause a blaze which will destroy a whole "bush." Another more insidious danger was brought to light, when it became known that slash is great breeding ground for most of the diseases and insect pests that attack our woodlands. A little extra work in gathering and burn- ing slash will repay itself in added security from fire, diseases and wood- boring beetles.
