Acting Finance Minister Abbott. sispportcd by 6.61". and Liberal marlbers, said there was no oom- ulsion about the proposal. n»- ough he agreed that a taxpayer who did‘ not apply for allowances stood to lose approximately $12 a year for each child. The budget discussion also was “highli hied by a motion by Dud- ger onne (Ir-Bounce) urging that 0.1.x reductions be made ei- fective this vear instead of next, that exemptions be raised to $1.500 for s le persons and $3,000 for marri and that a lO-per-cent tax be imposed on all retail mles Ruled Out The motion was ruled out of or- der on the around that only can- inet ministers can move motions dealing with experdlures The family allowance discussion arose on a. resolution, later approv- ed, which provides a deduction from income of S100 1hr each child elig- ible for family allowances and $300. for children over l0 and not eligible for al nces. John I-Isokett (PC-Stansteod) objected to putting a taxpayer in e class of a beneficiary _to the state whether or not he wanted lo be in that class.

Ger. don lvl-lcMllian. a director of Al- goma Steel Corp. said his oin- pany's relations with the nion were eneraily good. Mr Axiscn was cr tlcal of the union and said it had failed to fulfill its obliga- tions . in his outline of the company's position he said Dosco was o ed to granting union security the steel union. Later. under question- iflil 17y Mr. Robinette he intimated the company might, accept a plan along the lines of the Rand form- ula which was the settlement of the Ford motor strike at Windsor and which imposed penalles for violation o1’ :he union nsfeemeni. In return the company was to cui- lect union .diies from every eni- ployee whether or not he was a member of the union. In connection with the union's demand for a 40-hour week, com- pared with the present 48 hours, Doscds experience was that short- er hours were not followed by in- creased production as the Union claimed. The ur-lon had opposed introduction of the six-day week in place of seven days at the Syd- ney steel mill. ‘ ‘ The union's wage demands -an increase of 24 1-2 cents at. Sydney and l9 1-2 cents at Ontario mills because the Sydney rates now are five cents lower-would cost Doscc $3,064,000 a year Between 19:10 and 1945 the Sydney mill rates had increased ur. average of 72 per cent, compared with an aver- age Canadian JlCIBBSC of 0'1 per cent. Within the last few months seine 1.400 workers had received an in- crease of 25 cents-an-hour. “The Sydney mill can begiust as surely wrecked by insistence on wages it can't aflord to pay as by eihy other means," Mr. Anson sairL There had Men no understand- ing on the part of Dosco that the recent increase o.‘ So-a-ton in steel prices was to provide for new wage increases. Even with that higher price the oollnpariy would be oper- ating at a loss. Mr. Anson devoted a. large part of his statement. tdouliriing the difficulties under which the Syd- fie-y mill operated. He cited the quality of raw materials with which the had to work, which compared un avorabl with those used in the Ontaro steel mills and the geographical handicap which meant heavy freight charges to reach the main markets in Ontario and uebec. The Sydney general manager was examined by Mr. Robinette on his company's attitude toward union security. He disagreed with the sugges- tion of Mr. Roblnctte that the union might be in a better pos- ition to keep its agreement if it had a measure of union security He stressed the importance of mandatory penalties on the union or its members. Mr, Roblnette recalled the Rand domiul-a pu-ovided for fines and. loss of seniority in the event a union member took part in an 11l- egal work stoppage. ' Mr. Anson said he would suggest the company have the right to dis- miss such workers and if that ac- tion was not taken they could be ined. "I would suiggeot your com/party very cardully consider adopting thiedftand formula." Mr. Robinette sa . » “We ‘lite oolisldering it." Mr Robinetnte said In his earlier evidence Mr. Ari- son said he thought the time had come "when the security of the employer as well as that of the anion should be given considera- on." - Continued llkwn Page i weather conditions promised lrn- rirovement. a ~ SAN FRANCISCO.
