Tax Matters

In both Britain and Canada tax matters are very much in the public attention these days. ()ver in Lon- doil. the impcrturbabie Mr. Butler, Chancellor of the Exchequer, believ- ing that his countrymen have too mlich money in their pockets, is try- ing: to curb their enthusiasm for spending it, by the simple method of raising taxes. hoping in this way to bolster exports, on which the eco- nomic life of the realm depends. Nor is it it more token increase that he has tacked on to the tax formula. It is one so considerable in both weight and scope that not only his political opponents but many of his own Con- servative colleagues are said to be amazed at the provisions of the aut- umn budgct. Regardless of the right or wrong of the drastic action, it certainly has provided Labour mem- bers with a silarp political weapon which, it may be expected, they will use with zest and skill.

In Ottawa, according to usually well informed sources, the tendency is in the other direction. Finance Minister Harris, althougll he has not made any pronouncement in the matter, has not done anything to discourage the speculation of a pos- sible touch of cheerfulness in his next budget. This speculation is based on the likelihood of lower defence costs in the next fiscal year. Just, what the tax decrease-pro vided there is one in the offing-will amount to, or how it. will be distri- buted, no one but Mr. Harris is in a position to say. and for the time be- ing he is keeping his own counsel: but there seems to be at least a 50- 50 chance that a downward revision is being considered.

Sceptics on bot.h sides of the At- lantic will, of coutse. maintain that the economic angle is not the dom- inant factor in either case. They will say that, with an election three years off. and perhaps four, Mr. Butler can afford to be courageous, or even foolhardy; and that. in view of the fact that the Canadian Gov- ernment is now in mid-stream, or perhaps even a little further along than that. it is time for Mr. Harris to begin thinking seriously about the virtue of generosity, always an important piece of equipment in political fence mending. And, al- though sceptics generally are not lulled for infallibiiity of judgment, it must be admitted that in these two liisi.ii1ces their al';3(Llm3il.i'l hzzve a certain--though. no doubt, limIte.i --measure of tenability.

Sell Determination What with United Nations reso- lutions respecting the rights of all pimples to self determinatioll and Sr)l”lTlrl affirmations of llnluzsal freedom in parliaments and con- gresses, the idea has got around that every community on the face of the earth is entitled to political in l--nciirlcilce a n d representative government. In theory, no doubt. the idea is sound. Whether it is real- istic. or even wit.hin the range of pt.-l.-iliility in the present state of tlic worlri. is another matter. The Brit- ish delegate on the Social ('omm- ittee of the U. N. General Assembly thinks it isn't. That, at any rate, is the gist of his reported opposition ' to that section of a proposed cov- enant on human rights that deals with this subject. He calls it "poll- tlcal dynamite in a troubled world." No nation in the world knows more about the problems of colon- ialism than Great Britain, for the simple reason that no nation has had more experience with it. it can -be said. too, that no colonial pqver has done more to prepare its colon-

Yes, it was at once clear that 80 percent of the population of this crown colony is Chinese: and even in that first ride it seemed also discernible that tliinlzs here are not so good. that unrest and uncertainty counted in this city that has jungle fighting and shoal- ini:s within 30 miles of its centre.

RESTFUL INTERVAL

Tonight as I dig in and actually use bureau drawers and have mail from home and require no early morning call to catch a plane-tonight I lunge in the rather oppressive muggy hot night breeze that comes off the sea at my window and there's something of contentment to be found even in letting the drop of sweat run down one's nose-if you know you aren't wrecking a shirt.

Okay, so it is hot, but you're half way round the world and you' re stopping -for a week's breath. You've been in the air eight days out of the last 15. you've flown perhaps 15,000 miles in perhaps 50 solid hoursl you're health is good and you haven't lost either your passport or your temper. YOU'VE been cared for with the greatest skill and kindness by the entire R. C. A.

And besides. you're in Singapore. The word has n ring to it like Samarkand and from what I glimpsed of it as we arrived late this afternoon it in an improbable a mixture and no fantasy-hewn as Lower Slobovla.
