PAGE TWO Most significant aspect of Canadian business ACKMINILY MMIUIB MOOO according to the official D.BS. Statistical Review, was the boom in homeâ€"building. New residential construction in 1953, according to D.BS., was 35 per cent higher in 1953 than in the previous year and is expected to go even higher in 1954. In business and industry, D.BS. figures indicate that there has been some tapering off both in investment and in employment during the latter part of 1953. Indeed, it is fair to say that the trend has continued into the first months of 1954. Business and industry provide the bulk of the jobs held by the Canadian people. It is the postwar investment in business and indusâ€" try which has made possible the great increase in employment opâ€" portunities during the past few years. It would seem obvious, thereâ€" fore, that Ottawa should concern itself with the implications in terms of employment of the declining level of business and indusâ€" trial activity recorded by D.B.S. Instead, however, Parliament is being asked to concern itself with further stimulating the boom in residential construction. Not a word about the effect of cheap imports on employment in industry, not a word about the blunting of investment incentive through high taxes. In these latter problems there lies the danger of real unemâ€" ployment and business recession. Why stimulate residential construction, which is booming anyâ€" L ol ti_t imvce and the outâ€"dated Editorial Comment Why stimulate residential construction, which is booming anyâ€" way, and refuse to recognize what high taxes and the outâ€"dated General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade are doing to employment and job opportunities on the business and industrial front?
