Rotary Told Canadians Are Prepared To Ra "in my travels from one coast to the other I have come to believe that Canadians generally want to improve their standard of living." w.F. Iougheed, consultant econo- mist to the Canadian Bank of Com- merce. told the Charlottetown Rot- ary Club Monday. "And". he added they are quite prepared to do some- thing about it." He observed that demand for goods and services is gxpsnding and influencing and encouraging the expansion of pro- duction. Using the growth of a baby eleph- ant as an illustration. however, he cautioned against too ready ac- ceptsnce of the tmthematicll PM jection of economic trends. In order to have continued economic srowth you have to work for it. In primary production and in agriculture fewer people are need- ed to produce increasing quanti ties of products. This means that to maintain full employment we must turn to secondary industry and services. involving many pro- blems of protection. The recent economic growth be- ise Standards time to discuss whether we should have it or not. It came in so many ways; in engineering; in. techno- logical fields: in foreign trade; in investment: and so on that no one group could interfere too much. It has opened up so many avenues for further exploration and develop- ment that only the intellectual capacity of our people can rest- rict it. said Mr. Lougheed. point- ing out the importance of educat- on. The best way to encourage growth is to establish an economic climate in which growth can take place. "One thing we do not want to see established for posterity- even by way of experiment-is that growth can be retarded by fiscal or monetary measures or other bits of bureaucratic benevol- once. "The Canadian economy is I nique." emphallxed the speaker. cautioning against introducing such things as punitive income tax. cap- ital gains tax. or subways. Just because Britain, the United States or Russia happen to have them." Rather we have to f ' .. Can- gsntncanadabefors psoplehadsdianpoiiciss CENTRAL BUSINESS SITE :,v-' .

Most of the the government may take advan- tage of the defence debate sched- uled next week to feel out the Commons' reaction to selective service. HIGHLY UNPOPULAII. The government has. shied away from selective service as certain to be highly unpopular. Less than a year ago Prime Min- later eden said in an address to the Conservative party couven tlon that he did not believe a sys- tem of selective service or bal- loting would be acceptable to the people of this country." The government. however. is faced'with the problem that reg- ulsr recruitment is unlikely to produce a force to match the country's military commitments. Last February the government announced a series of pay 'in- creases designed to stimulate re- cruitment but response has not been up to expectations. The alternative method of a straight cut of six or seven months in the present two-year period of service is not expected to be introduced.

'5. .1 t "Election Ba No Denial Tax Cuts Planned OTTAWA (CP) - The govern- ment was accused Monday of starving the provinces to produce a big surplus for "election bait" tax cuts next year. Donald Fleming (PC--Toronto Eglinton) made the statement in the Commons. He got no denial that tax cuts are planned. Mr. Fleming, in a debate on legislation to implement the new federal tax-sharing proposals to the provinces. reiterated the Op- position demand that the prov- vinces should get a bigger slice of national tax revenues. He said that, barring extravag- ant spending or juggled book- keeping, the government will end this fiscal year with a surplus of S500,000,000 or more next March Finance Minister Harris. who has budgeted for a S113.000.000 surplus, shook his head vigor- ously. Mr. Fleming continued: "The government apparently has decided that it prefers that the provinces and the municipal- ities be starved. that they should be compelled to remain in a financial strait-jacket. in order that the federal government may put on s grandstand show next spring and use tax reductions fol- lowing this enormous budget sur- plus as election bait."

Fisheries Minister Sin- clair ssid use of federal surpluses would be an uncertain way of financing the provinces. and pluses to reduce the national debt ha"... y 1. .' moneyyn the. ut political praise was more likely to result from spending public funds than from collecting those funds from taxpayers. Social Credit Leader Low said the new tax-sharing plan falls far srort of giving the provinces enough to meet their needs. He suggested another attempt be made to reach a more accept- able solution. LIKES PRESENT PRINCIPLE CCF spokesman Harold Winch sided with the other opposition speakers in urging a better deal for the provinces. But he in- dicated his party prefers the prin- ciple of the existing tax rental agreements. which expire next March 31, to give the central gov- in the -army. ernment greater supervision an! added that it is better to use sur- 11'? riucascp arves It" control over the economy. Under the new tax formula. taxpayers could deduct l0 per cent of -federal personal incosns tax. nine per cent of corporation income and 50 per cent of suc- cession dutles to cover provincial levies in these fields. The prov- inces could assess higher taxes. but with resulting double taxa- tlon. The federal plan would provids unconditional equalization pay- ments to the provinces based on their per-capita income from the 10-9-50 share of the three tax fields. The payments would be calculated to bring the income in the less wealthy provinces up is the average of the two highest- Ontario and British Columbia. IMPOSES FLOOR It also would put a floor on provincial revenues in those fields. guaranteeing the provinces 95 per cent of the average income of the two preceding years. Mr. Sinclair said the new pro- posals will provide the provinces with 20 per cent more-an extra s115.000,000 - than they would get under a continuation of the present tax-rental plan. them to sign agreements 0- all would receive the equalization payments. .

Eden Offers To Deal With Russia On H-Bomb Tests LONDON (AP) - Prime Minis- ter Eden. in a shift of policy, to offered Monday to bargain with Russia on the limitation of hy- drogen bomb tests. Eden's announcement came in a House of Commons review of international affairs. He conceded that the Stalin- levelling campaign behind the Iron Curtain should relax world tensions. but cautioned against expecting too much. WAR THREAT RECEDES The threat of war. he said. has receded-lar ely because every- one includin the Soviet leaders. now recognize the if-bomb could destroy the human race. He de- clared he was "sure" now that no nation would risk starting a nuclear war but that he could not be "equally sure of 0m forever." The R t and some sectors of British public opinion. have been pressing for a ban on nu- clear test explosions. So have Japan and India.

But Britain. in considering a cut in her armed forces. never will make "some sudden or abnipt decisiol which would throw the whole mil- itary gear of our Western unity to confusion." A few hours before Eden spoke. Soviet Ambassador Jacob Malik asked to see British Foreign Sec- retary Selwyn Lloyd. British sour- ces said that during a 15-mlnuts meeting Malik conveyed a mes- sage from Soviet Foreign Minister Dmitri Shepilov on the general question of banning all nuclear test explosions. Shepilov last week proposed an American-British - Russian pact- in or out of the United Nations- to halt nuclear tests.
