It is expected that President Roosevelt may visit the Capital before this session ends. We are looking forward to this visit and our hope is that the situation does not become so serious overseas that he will be unable to be with us |has ever been our privilege to hear. He has flown from Australia to Singagore, to Bangkok, to North Africa, Greece and on to England, then by Cllgtper plane to New York and to Ottawa. He has in all these various theatres of war seen the Australian troops in action. One could not hear him without feeling inspired to do the utmost in this war. I am sure that his visit will do much to arouse the Canâ€" adian people to the danger which faces us and to the fact that this terrible situation which has grown in Euro&e, and which involves the whole future of civilization must be trodden under foot for all time. During the week we had the exâ€" treme fileasure of hearing the Prime Minister of Australia, Mr. Menzies, speak to the Canadian Club and also from the Floor of the House of Commons. He is a large, fineâ€"looking man and I beâ€" lieve one of the finest speakers it This will mean that our soldiers will have to pay this increased imâ€" post when travelling back and forth to there homes from the many camgls in which they are stationed. We are not ob}ectlng to the general imposition of this tax on the travelling public, but we do feel that soldiers should be exâ€" cluded from paying this ten per One other proposal to which I and many other members have given strong disapproval is the 10 per cent tax on railway tickets. those who can afford to pay three dollars a plate for a dinner dance at an hotel, or five dollars to hear a symphony orchestra or from one dollar to two dollars to see a hockey match, go Scot free. We are hoping that some amendment will be made to this resolution. which amounts to 20 per cent of the gross proceeds of the theatre. We are well aware of the fact that the theatres will not pay this out of their earnings, but will pass it on to the public This became quite apparent when the Minister of Finance said that he would have to extend the time for levying this tax until M?' 19th so that theatre owners could arrarge to pass the tax on to the public. The feeling is that this is a burdensome tax on the poor man‘s amusement, and one would be inclined to think that individual incomes had inâ€" creased to this extent. Such is not the case. The increase in our naâ€" tional income has been increased due to the fact that tens of thousâ€" ands of people are now employed who were formerly without work. The increase in income is a mass increase, not an individual inâ€" Another question which has caused Wgeflbl" â€"tontroversy is The argument in favor of this heavy tax is that our national inâ€" come has increased by about 1% billion dollars. On the face of it to be made for, after all, it is only thuewhomengmmem- ious enterprises a by the new taxes who are in a position to point out to the Minister some of the discrepancies which are bound to occur. The Budget progals must be kept secret and are wn up by a group of men who do not always understand the intricacies of business. Durlns the week I had the,priâ€" vilege of speaking on the Budget, and dealt gartlcularly with the very heavy burden which I feelâ€" and I believe most members agree â€"is being placed upon those who are least able to pay. The Nationâ€" al Defence Tax, for instance is doubled on married people earnâ€" ing over $1,200 a year, and inâ€" creased from 3 per cent to 7 per cent for single Wfi‘l’ple‘ This is a heavy impost. ile it is true that we must have money to provide the munitions of war, we must at the same time be careful that we do not tax our people so heavily that we lower unduly our standard of living. the Budget is now to be felt lthonlylnexb:g:‘%m directly or indirect! h:nflecudby the Budget have time to give careful consideration to the variâ€" Master of District No. 13, will be succeeded by Fred Kennard of Roâ€" meo Lodge No. 164 LO.0.F., who wned by the municipality are all %uteux{‘:i:lud. nmxym::j ployees to swing the project into a ol pease.

Such a feat is inâ€" conceivable in railroading, but sending three telephone conversaâ€" tions at once over two pairs of wires has been in practice since 1900. Moreover, the "phantom" channel sufl:rimra-zed on the two physical channels not only does not interfere with them, but is itâ€" self a better conductor of â€"voice currents than they are! This apâ€" parent miracle is achieved by inâ€" serting sfi:cinl equipment at the ends of the two physical circuits.
