than 100 guests of all shades of

Discusses Taxation
Premier Meighen devoted most
of his time to discussing taxation
from all its angles, speaking of tho
methods which had been adopted
during the wsr and comparing the
course taken by the Dominion with
what has been done hy Great Bri-
tain and other countries. Dealing
with the income taxation' he point-
ed out 'that while many believed
that not enough had been done in
that way, there were many things
to consider by those who would go

of Canada being so close io the

manding position could offer bet-
ter inducements to the investor.

lnplornant Taxn,About The Same
Speaking of the position of the
farmers of Canada, he pointed out
that the taxes on implements to-
day were aboutthe same as had
been in force 20 years ago. There
has always been a tendency for all
for the reason that people began
to import lines of goods which
were free or which carried lower
The situation as it affected the
famiers was as good as it had been
under past governments. Speaking
of the policy of the Government
regarding changes in taxation, he
said that it was tho intention of
the Cabinet _to get from the people
the best moms of making changes
if changes were necessary, and for
this purpose a commission was to
visit tho country and seek the ad-
vice or the people. He urged that

wus left to provide tho nocossary
revenue. From the standpoint oi
the commercial integrity of a coun-
try it cannot’ be done, said Mr.
Meighen.
Speaking of the reduction oi’
rural population in Canadu, the
premier claimed that the figures
showed that even while there had
been a 'slight decrease the situat-
ion was not nearly so grave as in
other countrieaand that there was
no need for alarm.
Not Hitting Farmer
One oi' the best reasons why the
condition of the farmer was better
today than formerly was the ini
crease in the value of farm-pr-0.

tem ot taxation in force could not
