It is highly improbable that anything 1i will occur in Canada but there is a strange set ing up here in connection with steelworkers‘ effort. Because of high defence costs, Canadi naonatime tax loads. The steelworkers, much directly into CeEDCE EUV M OT SNT D UC ol Es brod [ trial earners, are asking that their wages be brought up equal to wages in the U.S. steel industry. If this demand is met the price of‘ steel will skyrocket, the cost of our defence effort will rise proporâ€" tionately and the tax load presumably will get that much heavier. While the country as a whole strains under a heavy defence burden, the steelworkers prepare to throw on a little more weight. As the belief in wi in Massachusetts, it car wisdom.
