Questions by staff correspondent Ottawa May Hearty vote of thanks is due to the Western unionist caucus under the chairmanship of or. Cowan of regina., for having brought before it r. Breadner Federal Cor missioner of Taxa Tion and for having elicited from him practically the Only information regarding the Workings of the income tax which has been furnished to the Public since the enactment of the measure in september 1917. The vote should be All the More Hearty because of the fact that the Western members threw the meeting open to members of the parties and also welcomed the press.

Over four thousand of the persons addressed had replied and two Hundred had been found taxable while. 200 More were still in doubt. The income tax says or. Breadner is essentially Urban tax.
