These do not affect fox feeds, which are already exempted, nor the general Sales Tax level, which like other tax and tariff rates remains unchanged, at the exor- bitant 8 pct" ccnt established in the first year of the present Liberal regime. Premier Campbell and his colleagues in the local Legislature used frequently g0 express their “amazement” at the high taxes imposed by the Bennett administration. The tax revenue col- lected by the King Government last year was greater by something like a hundred million dol- lars than the collection for any Conservative year. It \\'il> 65 per cent greater than the reve- nue for the y-ear 1932-33, when the world de- pression was at its peak and the Bennett Gov- ernment had to find ways and means of finan- eing the counlr_v, in face of the most bitter Lib- eral criticism and opposition to every remedial frieasitrc, including even the Empire trade pacts. What a sorry showing the King Government fwould tiialcc today, despite hugely increased tax collections, if it were not for the sheet-anchor pf Empire trade! Soaking The Taxpayers i’. , .' The most significant feature of the year's financing at Ottawa, according to Finance Min- ister Dunning! statement, was the enormous increase in tax collections, bringing federal reve- riues up to an all-time high record of $516,629,- ooo, an increase of $2,538,000 over the preced- jing year, and $55.835,o0o higher than 1928-29, flie previous record year for Dominion revenue. l In the fiscal year 1935-36 Income Tax collec- >, ions were $82,710,000; last year they amounted Si2o,3r3(3,0o0. lint a still greater dispropor- Qtion is shown in Sales Tax collections. The King Fovcrnntctit boostctl this tax from 6 to 8 per ‘cent and the result last year was a collection of _$r3S,o5.;,o<.>o, as zigainst $77,552,000 in 1935-36 i—-an inert-roe of about ninety per cent in a tax pvhich in 1935 w-as denounced by every Liberal jandirlate as “exorbitant”. ‘t lYhile a suli<tntttial surplus is shown on cur- ient account, Mr. Dunning is at pains t0 point out that this is of no real consequence. Cer- lainly it is no indication of governmental econ- “pmy, for we find an increase of three-quarters jbf a million dollars in ordinary expenditures last jet-it over the preceding year. ‘t It is siguilicatit that this increase points chiefly Ii growing bureaucracy at Ottawa, while basic dustrics are being handicapped by reduced penditures. For example, ordinary expendit- res for Agriculture, which totalled $9,399,000 I035. were reduced last year to $9,017,000; ‘hnical Education expenditures were cut from £900,000 in 1035 to $49000 in 1037; Public Works from $12.945,000 to $0,385,000. On the other hand, for the same periods Civil Ser- i vice Commission expenditures increased from $250,000 to $350,000; House of Commons from $i.486,orio t0 $1,516,000: Post Ofifice from $31.- 438000 to $33,762,000: and Prime Minister's pffice from $1,290,000 to $1,450,000. In addition to increased tax collections, the ' flovcrnmcnt ntztrlc a saving of 551700.000 by flrefunding and rcinvvstitig tltc last of Canada's war-time tax-free bonds. Another saving of " $16,342,000 was vlfcctrtl by other refunding op- erations. Notwithstanding these windfalls, the. Govorntucnt canto out with an over-all deficit of $13.775xir>o.

Mr. lluiuiiitig stresses increased trade figures, ~~but it is signiiicrutt that while our export trade increased $27.oo0,00o over the previous year, -i the increase for the same period in import trade v-—in the value of the commodities bought from other c0u1itrics--\v:is $127,000,000. This is equivalent to a falling off of $100,000,000 in our favorable trade balance and cannot, by any argument, be construct] as representing an en- couraging frond. Mr. llunuiitg indicated clearly that he was opposed to 1noncl:it‘y' rcform in the shape of inflationary proposals. a stand which he has con- sistently adopted and which also applies to the sound moticv [lftllCV of his predecessors in office. All will liopc that he is correct in assuming that thrrc arc favorable indications, at home and abroad, which will enable the, Government to make a better showing next year and give relief to our ovr-rhurrlcncrl taxpayers. who will find little to rejoice at in the speech he made yesterday; Election And Party If an election docs come in the near futine, or whenever it comes, ii union of all non-Social Credit parties in the West ought to be efiecteil ll the surest tnrzns of overthrowing the Alter! hertiC-ovcrnntctit, says the Montreal Gazette.

And The Moose jaw Times-Herald devotes a special and says that thousands of staunch Conserva- fives throughout the province openly joined the Liberals in putting out the Aberhart prairie fire, which, as the voting results have shown, might have done very serious damage in Saskatchewan. The Liberal party, according to the Times-Her- ald, owes a debt to the Conservatives of the province who placed the interests of the province before those of their party. It is equally true to say that Saskatchewan Conservatives were fighting a national battle, which the successful Liberals were not, and if they have sacrificed x00 per cent. of the representation which would otherwise have been theirs in the new Legis- lature, they have won in return the gratitude and respect of all their fellow-citizens. If the Times- Herald is right, these provincial Conservatives. under a total eclipse, have more reason to be proud of their service than has the sticcessful Patterson Government or its political father confessor, the Minister of Agriculture at Ot- tawa. r Editorial Notes r Battle of Bunker's Hill this date, 1775. n- o i: u Fortunately, most people are fair.

"A reduction of 25 per cent in the number of taxpayers means an increase of 33 per cent in the burdens, which they will have to bear, if our Budgets then are only on the same level as the Budget of today. All these things cost money atid effort, and only wise expenditure and a bold policy can meet the situation with which we are confronted.

Beginners and expert-s alike can share in these pleasures - provided reasonable care ls exercised. The experience of the past shows all too well that such a warning note must be sounded. Bathing and swimmln tragedies each year mar wha start out to be pleasant relaxation or enjoyable outings. Swimming and diving in waters of unknown depth or unknown currenfl. too soon after meals, when over- heated, or venturing too far from shore when alone, all these are dangers which should be recol- nized and avoided.
