MIDWAY MUST The action of the town council at Waterloo by giving a midway comâ€" pany permission to pitch their tents, ferris 4 wheel, merryâ€"goâ€"round, and other apparatus on the town hall square brought forth strong proâ€" tests from some of Waterloo‘s leadâ€" ing citizens. As a result the council held a special meeting on Monday night and by a vote of six to two decided to ask the midway company t The choir of St. Saviour‘s Church, Waterioo, journeyed to Hespeler on Thursday evening where they took part in the Ascension Day Services of St. James‘ Church.

CHOIR SANG AT HESPELER LEAVE ON FRIDAY \ ‘"The greatest difficulty," said Mr. lEuler. has developed in regard to customs. in that department there ihad developed two great leaks, that ,o:’ smuggling, and underâ€"valuing and | misâ€"description _ of _ importations, | which are equivalent to smuggliing. | We have our teeth into the law by | way of heavier perialties for the comâ€" mercial smugglers. Under the law [as it is now, the man who smuggles $200 or more may be sent to jail for a period of from one to seven years. This has had a tremendously }delerrem effect. It is declared that . smuggling is equivalent to theft, and ‘so it is. The man who brings merâ€" chandise into the country without payment of duties is robbing the txreasury of the country of what is | due it. Law Will be Enforced|* new government dispensary, 1 would like to suggest to him that 1 have about 2,000 applications for positions in the Preventive Service and, as 1 have now made all my appointments in Ontario, I am quite willing to let him have his choice of the remainâ€" der. 1 hope he will not regard it too much of a drawback that most of these men are violent "Grits." Address by Mr. Euler Mr. Euler at the outset pointgd out that the Department of National Revenue collects practically all of Canada‘s revenue, which last year amounted to $314,000,000, and emâ€" ploys about 5,000 people, 500 of whom are at the head office in Monâ€" treal. The speaker stated that he learned upor assuming office that too much of the work had been "tunnelled" to the Minister, whether it was large or small, and the latter was therefore swamped with a mass of detail which made it impossible for him to deal with matters of polâ€" icy and principle and to exercise a geyeral supervision of the whole department. It was on that account that the department was divided inté three chief branches, wtih a commissioner, . virtually a deputy minister, in charge of each. Courts Must Coâ€"operate "If I may step aside for a moment with regard to the application of the law in a criminal way, 1 would say,. with all due respect to our courts, that unless the latter coâ€"operate with us it will be impossible to obtain :akes a long time to obtain cision. "When I took office it was found necessary to conduct certain proseâ€" cutions. In a large city a. certain official had misappropriated some $§20,000, and despite efforts which were made to the contrary, criminal prosecution was ordered. The court found the accused guilty, and senâ€" tenced him to one day in jail. In another instance one of our western oficials had stolen $1,200. There was no doubt as to his guilt and. there was no restitution. Prosecuâ€" tion wix ordered, but the court dis< missed the case, and rather censured the department for being so harsh." Stop Smuggling ~ In recard to smuggling, he said, afer outlining the preventive steps recently taken, "I appreciate that we may not be able to stop it all, but we are going to make the life of the commercial smugglers so uncomfortâ€" able it will not be worth while for many of them to continue. Our prime purpose is to stop commercial smuggling in a large way, which has done so much, not only to rob the treasury, but to deal a heavy blow to legitimate business in Canada. the beneficial result in full that we ought to have. Moreover, it usually "I realize that there is a strong sentiment in the country that our people should be permitted to bring from the United States purchases we may say to the amount of $50 or $100 without the payment of duty. as is the practice in the United States. I have some sympathy with that desire. and the law may possâ€" ibly be changed in that direction, but that is a maiter of policy about which f can make no pronounceâ€" ment. Loss by Undervaluation "The practice of undervaluation in my opinion. causes fully as great a loss to the country as the practice of direct smuggling. We have re cently sent to Europe experts in the value of merchandise. We have similar men in the United States, so that soon the department wil} be in a position to ensure the valuations on which Customs duties are paid are the correct ones. â€" I am quite sure that when our plans are fully worked out the reâ€" venue of Canada will be a heavy gainer and Canadian business men will be rid of much unfair competiâ€" tion." Liquor Problem ‘ Dealing with the liquor problem, he said:â€""It is not within the power of the Government to refuse clearance papers to any vessel conâ€" taining liqnor if it is genuinely deâ€" stined for and sails to a United States port. May I also say, in passâ€" ing, that when it is realized that from Canadian ports there was exâ€" ported to the United States liquor valued in the neighborhood _ of twenty millions in one year, all of which was reported by us to . the United States authorities, in mccordâ€" ance with the treaty, one might well have some doubt as to the effectiveâ€" hess of the effort made by our neighâ€" bors to stop the violation of their own claw.

Lorenz of Baden, Rev. C. 8. Roberts officiating. ‘They will reside at 43 Bridgeport Road. HOME ENTERED;: SECURE OVER $225 On Saturday night the home of E. J. Hohner, Kitchener, was enâ€" tered biy a burglar who secured a zold «watch, a cheque for $27.00, and camsh, totalling altogether over $225. It is believed that the burglar conâ€" sealed himself while they were abâ€" sent from home on Saturday evenâ€" ing as no trace of a foreed entrance could be found. The police are inâ€" vestigating the case. Mrs. Christian Baetz Following an iliness of three months, Christina Baetz, widow of he late Bathold Baetz, passed away on Friday at St. Mary‘s Hospital in her 57th year. Three sons and three laughters survive. The funeral was held Monday to St. Mary‘s Church hence to Mount Hope cemetery. Sales Tax in Arrears ‘"Unfortunately, it is true that the :ales tax is over four million dollars 1 arrears. Some two thousand busiâ€" ness firms were in arrears six months ago. This number has been educed to about 1,500, and is lesâ€" ening rapidly. Of the amount outâ€" tanding two millions is owing by he breweries and distilleries, part f which is in dispute and in the ‘ourts. Every dollar owing will be ~ollected. Our auditors are now preâ€" paring to make demand, and if neâ€" :essary to take legal action. "It will be naturally asked why loes not the department take legal ciion: to collect all these old arâ€" ‘ears. May 1 say. that 519 cases are 1as paid excise duties to the Governâ€" nebt. &s to the shipments to Cuba ‘nd other impossible ports, I may ‘ay that under the present regulaâ€" ions these shipments have been enâ€" irely stopped. hipped to the Unfiled St_alefi ports ow in the hands of the law branch, 26 firms are in liquidation, and the alance of 76 are being collected as ‘apidly as possible. "Unfortunately, it is found that in ases where a large amount is still ‘ue theenforcement of the decision: f the court would send these firms nto bankruptey, and the departmeni vyould receive very little. if anyâ€" hing. In these cases it has been hought wise to nurse the accounts n the interest of the revenue of the ‘onntry. While this is necessary, the ‘epartment has taken such steps as vill make any further addition to he arrears impossible. Also from une 1. $ per cent. interest will be harged on all overdue sales tax. very collector now has instructions ‘c see that payment is made prompt y. failing which the matter will be aken to the cours. Income Tax Also Behind "The income tax branch is also in irears, but these, too, will he col ected promptly. Following the steps Customs collections the past year were fifteen million greater than he year before. Sales tax collections we up 16 per cent.. and income tax i per cent., the latter two despite the act that the rates were reduced Indoubtedly @& good portion of this hich have been taken for the more rompt collection of all taxes. our "You, of course. know that 10 per| ‘ent. reduction was made in the inâ€"| ‘ome tax, yet we find that this yeflrf ve collected since April 1 three milâ€" ion dollars more in income tax than vas collected in the same time lasi cear. These results speak for themâ€" selves. We have made a geod start. ‘nd have no doubt whatever that vhen the department is functioning ully and completely under the new »rganization the revenue will be much increased. Increased by $30,000,000 "I do not like to make predictions, mt I shall be very much disappointâ€" ‘d if for the present year our (-nl-J ections of taxes will not amount to more than twentyâ€"five or thirty milâ€" ‘jon dollars more than the year beâ€" ore. The department is making proâ€" wess, and if the public is not too imâ€" vatient as to the results I believe hat the outcome will be generally satisfactory to the people of Canada. "Let me say that it is our aim to ‘nforce the law, that where we find ‘axes have been evaded or overâ€" looked, it is our full intention to make collection without regard to »arty, class or anything else. Department Means Business 1 have heard it said. occasionally, that perhaps the Department does not mean business, that possibly we vill gradually revert to old condiâ€" tions. I am reminded of the answer i attributable to increased busines hroughout the country, but‘ ther s also no doubt whatever that th reasures pow taken have led t he diminution of smuggling and t reater revenue by Customs dutic ‘nd closer collections of sales an ncome tax. f Mr. Theodore Roosevelt, given inder similar conditions. Mr. Rooseâ€" velt before his entry into national politics was Commissioner of Police n the City of New York where the forces of progress and reaction are constantly at war. The enquiry was addressed to Mr. Roosevelt as to whether he intended to enforce the lawsâ€" His answer was "Yes. If it was not the intention to enforce the ‘aws they should not have selected i Dutchman for the job." "I have outlined in a very incomâ€" plete way some of the work of the Department lof National Revenia What does this all mean to the Minâ€" ister himself* It means much hard work and some criticiem. It means he loss of friends and the breaking ff of old and valued associations, but these are the things which a man foregoes when he accepts the ~esponsibility of Cabinet Minister. "In conclusion, I take it that flm% Priime Minister was in earnest in his declaration that the Department | should be placed on a proper basis. I take it that Parliament was in earnest when it voted a milHion dolâ€" ‘ars last sessfon for the purpose. f take i that the people of Canada are in earnest when they say that Lorentz â€" OBITUARY and h U man shuall escape taxation at the ense of others. and 1 assure you t the Minister is in earnest in his eavor to carry out the law.
