The Rogers Hardware Co. ’ Limited 1*” " Made Seething Continued from page 1 _ former King governmentjor the cle~ itcit and criticized that administra- ion for not forecasting last year the revenue and expenditures of the pre- ient year. Rt. Hon. Mackenzie King, liberal leader, once jumped to his leet in interruption and several-times the Opposition benches thundered lefisnt echoes to the enthusiastic ap- glsuse of the Government side. One such occasion was tvhen the Premier, rising to the height of his redoubtablc oratoi-lcal powers, blazed forth on the question of Canadian National Rsilivny finances. In scri- :ences [lfflillllillll with import, he dc- dared that he would be derelict 1n iis duty if, even at the risk of politi- ill opponents‘ criticism, he failed to ooznt out the menace of the mount- ng hundreds of millions of - debt awed by the Notional railroad to the 390010 of Canada. ‘ Blames Liberals on C.

Mr. Kings protest was "melt audible in the applause oi ‘he Government benches, quickly iillowsd by ansrv cries mm me ‘liberals. 1i “is a scene to remember, this llldgel presentation. There stood the hemier, head bent forward in char- icterislic aggression. Opposite him Ba?» Mr- Kins. slumped back in his chair fumbling his glasses Behmd the Liberal leader was Honorable J. R. Ralston, Oppmitlon fnlarlcial critic, taking notes for‘ the lead he must give the Liberal attack at the coining of the budget debate on Thursday. Back-benchers leaned for- ward or sprawled back into their chairs. The crowded galleries, con- taining several» foreign ministers and all mariner ‘of officials, Blane were ever silent except for the scurring of telellmph boys in the press gallery. The Prime Minister attacked his heavy task systematically. He divided the speech Jnto five parts; First, he spent more than an hour in his de- tailed review of the financial opera- tions of the fiscal year which ended March 31. Then he presented the bal ance sheet as of that date. Next, he went over the trade and commerce of the Dominion during the past year, then he gave his estimates oi the present fiscal year's revenue and expenditures and finally, he an- nounced the tariff revision and new methods o.‘ revenue, tabltng the re- solution necessary to each change, curs“ INDIVIDUAL TAX As the covering motion indicates, th-e income tax reduction provides that exemption to marrif.‘ men or householders henceforth sliiill be $3,- 500 instead of $3,700, and that only one per cent. sliall be paid on the frst $1,000 taxed. Thus a $3,500 a year man pays nothing instead of the former $10; a $4,000 a year man pays $5 instead of $20. and a $5.000 s, year mun, $3] instead of 40.

On all incomes fin excess of $24,000 the tax is stet- ionary at 24 per cent. IMPOSTS ON LUXU-RIES. _'I‘he wealthy man is attacked, how- ever, by increased ‘ r luxuries as yachts and the higher priced mot i cars. A tax of flve per cent. is levied onsll pleasure ‘gm-id, imported or Canadian-made, while imported motor cars, valued at 2,100 or more, are increased to 40 per cent. on the general tsrlffpwhlch is ap- plicable to all United States imports, and 83 per cent. on the intermediate, in place of the 2'! 1-2 per cent. and 30 per cent. respectively, which former- ly were imposed. Import-ant chooses are made in the taxes on corporations. The cor-pom. tlon income tax is raised from eight to ten per cent, and family or per- sonal corporations, which formerly escaped more lightly than public en- terprises, are no longer treated dif- ferently. They pay the some u the others. The cry against double tax- ation,_raised when the Government tsxe corporation income and also that of individual income received from the same corporations. is met by a provision that where anyone re- ceives half his income from a. Cana- dian concern or conerns, such half shall be exempt up to $10,000, from income tax. This is intended to en- courage investments in Canadian en- terprises. ' INSURANCE PREMIUMS TAX Insurance companies, other than life and marine firms or fraternal societies, must pay a. tax of one per cent. on their net premiums, under another resolutionpThis motion also strikes out in the direction of a tariff in favor of Canadian-licensed insur- ance companies by obllglng those who insure their property in com- panies not licensed in Canada to pay a tax of 15 per cent. On their pre- miums. It is estimated that Cana- dians and Canadian companies, chiefly the latter, hold $800,000,000 worth of insurance in British and foreign companies not licensed to do business here. Foreign stockholders in Canadian companies must pay a tax of two per cent. on their dividends. This tax is collectable at the source, that is, the‘ company of trustees must, at the risk of heavy pensllties, deduct. the» a.- mount of tax from the dividend cheque before sending it abroad. NEWSPAPERS AND PERIODICALS Newspapers and’ POTlOdRCElI» both come within the ambit of the Pre- miers revenue raising proposals. Magazines suffer the heaviest. A duty of 15 cents per pound is levied on such magazines as litter evcry news- stand. One well-known U. S. weekly magazine, chiefly devoted to fiction, will cost its Canadian readers 25 cents instead of ten cents, under this duty. it is stated. Religious, edu- cational and literary magazines 61111 be exempted from this City by ord- er-in-Council and it is understood to be the Government's intention to exempt most of the so-called "class" magazines of the forty and fifty cent price level. Canadian daily newspapers others published more frequently than once a week must henceforth pay one and one-half cents per pound postage instead of the present one cent, where they are transmitted more than 40 miles from the place of publication. This applies to all papers and periodicals, except those devoted to religion, the sciences and agriculture, which have a. circulation cf more than 10,300 copies. ANTHRACITE DUTY UP A duty devised both to raise reve- nue and to help Canadian mines is that imposed 9n coal. United States anthracite coal, of the type used so widely in Ontario for domestic pur- poses, will be subject to a duty of 40 cents s. ton. Coke will pay $1 a ton. Charcoal will pay 7.50 a ton, while a duty of '15 cents a. ton under the general and intermediate tariffs and 35 cents under the British pre- ferenoe tariff is levied on bitumin- ous coal such as Nova Scotti: and the Western mines produce. Increased duties on coal and corn. a change in the drawback in sugar, an effort to keep trade in oranges within the Emipire, increases in the duties on several agricultural pro- ducts. a further revision of the iron and steel schedules, of the leather Rvrluco wilili I)\,llrl' Ill .11 hiyyql» \,/‘/{'ill\ll\(i ‘i t‘ ABSORBINE riw-i-ssr-sirehr ‘r: animmfi lllltl 6:0 llllb hills in opq osenoeglftri-"crrsaaove . ce e d. .
