More far-reaching results, hw- ever. likely will flow trom last Oe- iober's meeting here of Prime Mil- iiiter St. Laurent and provincial renders ll . Fran: it came a federal sugges- tion by which provinces would II- turn. after a long absence. to the direct tax fields of personal and an income and y ances. It would replace the tax gal, rental .g.eemenia existing widi all provinces except Quebec. Under those the central admlnlstra has been-with one minor tion in Ontario-the sole collect! of direct taxes in nine provinces- Follow-up negotiations have on- iinued. Present rental so don't expire until March 31, INT. ESSENCE OF PLAN The federal ' in involves sharing with provinces III set ratios the fields of pe and corporation income tax and sne- cesslon duty where provinces I0- cept the formula, preventing extra tolls on taxpayers. Extra federal payments would average out provincial go. comes. proportionate to popula- tion, to the level of'0ntarlo and British Columbia. An additional proviso would ensure against any province getting less than under is tax rental pact. Another result, apart from fiscal effects. may be closer relations 5 A the central government and Quebec. which has held aloof from tax pacts and other agree- menis with Ottawa. Premier Du- plessis recently spoke of a policy of co-operation and a desire to extend the "bridge of coopera- tion" so long .as Quebecls tax rights dre left intact. There were two surprises among the seven federal by-elections held this year. Progressive Conservatives scored upset wins in wrestlng from the Liberals Toronto Spadina. on Oct. 24. yand New Brunswlck's Resti- gouche-Madawaska on Sept. 3. Liberals had the Toronto riding 25 years and the New Bruns- wick one 22. on June 20 a Social Credit can- didate retained Battie l1iver-Cam- rose in Alberta for his party. QUEBEC BY-ELECTIONS Liberals retained three Quebec constituencies. Sept. ll-Temlscou ala, Quebec South and Bellcchasse -the last two with" majorities sharply cut by Conservatives. In the last by-election oi the year, Dec. 19, the Liberals again were successful in St. Jean-Pr ville-Naplervllle, a Quebec constit- uency. WEEK OF PRAYER Service to- : ll p.in. Zion Church, Rev. G.

Leaders of. all three opposition pnrties in the Commons made ex- tensive speech-making tours un- matched silica the 1953 election. Conservative le ii d e r Drew crossed the country in two months speaking to public meetings and groups of party workers. CCF leader Caldwell spoke mainly at public meetings-almost 70 of them chiefly -in small centres. Social Credit leader Low concentrated on the Prairies and Ontario. Mr. Si. Laurent and his cabinet members didn't match this burst of public travelling and speaking. While the prime minister could cal an election any time before the summer of 1058, when the five- year life of the present Parliament expires. It is generally believed the next election will be in 1957. Illness and injury hit hard In cabinet ranks in 1955. POSTMABTER-GENERAL DIES Postmaster-General Cote died Aug. 7 after a long illness which followed a heart attack in Fcbni- sry. Veterans Affairs Minister La- polnte was named Nov. 3 to suc- ced hlrn while continuing to hold his veterans portfolio. Mr. St. Laurent broke a bone in his ankle on a northern Quebec fishing trip Aug. 19. He was back at work by the end of the month but wore a cast for some weeks later. Fisheries Minister Sinclair, tour- ing Russia, fractured his back in at fall at Petropavlnvsk on the Soviet Pacific coast and then con- tracted jaundice on a painful trip home via Communist China.

The spceches were followed by an expression of regret by the CCF national executive and the in- cident was considered closed. Later, the QCF Quebec branch changed its name to the Social Democratic Party of Quebec (Part! Social Democratique du Quebec). The reason given was that CCF- Co-operative C onwealth Fed- eration -- couldn't be adequately translated into French. No change was involved in the Quebec braiich's connection with the na- tional CCF organization. cums or Tlliiill(S The family of Mrs. William Weddell wish to thank all those who sent cps-ds, telegnmg, gnu, fruit and treats, also all who vign- cd her and in anyway helped to make her one hundredth birthday I happy one.
