More than Likely it was the other Way around because like Las vegas the Odds Are stacked against the bettor. Although the Well groomed men who seem to Glide silently among the patrons of the famed Casino Are not known to be talkative one told me confidentially that they can afford to lose 200 million francs without batting an Eye. That amount translated into Canadian Money is about million and no one is going to win that amount. The principality of Monaco with its inhabitants lies in a setting of romantic magnificence. There is much More to do there than Gamble but somehow the Casino is like a Magnet to the North american mind. But you have to be prepared for a slight Shock. It is not the sparkling Hall of beautifully dressed men and women with the look of Royalty. Instead you la now find women in Slacks men wearing sports shirts and Gamb lers who Are More Likely to bet 10 francs two dollars than the. Family bankroll. At least that s the Way it seemed to me but one of the officials explained that there were private rooms for the heavy bettors. My wife and i were escorted to the private rooms the scene was much the same but the stakes heavier. In fact there is a private Tunnel from Here to the hotel so patrons May leave without using the front door. A school for gamblers unlike Las vegas the Monte Carlo Casino has a clock in Plain sight so gamblers know what time it is and they do close for a Brief period during the Day. When this time is May vary because my Casino informant said with a slightly lifted Eyebrow we close when the last Gambler it s not easy to be a croupier at the Casino the men who operate the gambling tables. They must first have worked at the Casino in other capacities for two years then if they seem to have the aptitude Are Given six months intensive training in the Art of gambling. Included in this intensive training is How to detect cheaters. There is a Small town in Italy which has a school teaching How to cheat at gambling particularly directed toward the Monte Carlo Casino. We have men at our doors who usually recognize the students and they Don t get very i was told. Strangely enough the Casino welcomes people with a system for winning at Roulette and Are usually very Happy if they manage to win on their first attempts. This is because the House is certain that they will return to play until they have lost All of their winnings. Kene Guidet who is director of the world renowned hotel de Paris at Monte Carlo where some of the rooms include finnish Sauna Bath facilities was Happy to explain his policies toward the wealthy Pat Rons of Monte Carlo. Slot machines eat francs the International set with unlimited funds like to be treated a certain smiled or. Guidet who is a Mone Gasque. By that i mean he is a native of Mona co one of the rare who Are exempt from income tax by reason of birth most of the other inhabitants were born in France. We know everything about our guests what they like to eat How they want it prepared in fact their most intimate or. Guidet knows All of the world greats from film stars to Oil magnates be cause he has been associated with the hotel de Paris since 1925, despite his Youthful appearance. Americans Are no longer the heaviest gamblers who come to Monte Carlo and despite my research i could t find any Canadian names that rang a Bell with Casino people. Now it is the italians who Are the big rollers and Many have made fortunes in the booming italian Industry and find the trip to Monaco an easy Road to fun. One thing is certain no matter where you stay on the French Riviera the trip in t Complete without a visit to Monaco even though you Are unlikely to see Princess Grace or Prince Ranier. And at the Casino if your taste does t run to Roulette there Are plenty of Slot machines that operate for one franc. You Don t have to speak French to pull the handle just like in Las vegas. Move to halt commercial town names May seek Power to Stop w promotional re naming by Roger Newman the Canadian permanent committee on geographic names May soon seek additional Powers so that it can Stop commercial promoters who try to re name unincorporated Canadian communities.

Paintings chosen will be shown at the National gallery in Ottawa in the summer of 1965 before being taken on a tour of Canada a drastic overhaul of the can Adian tax Structure and better division of governmental Juris diction in major taxation Fields were proposed in Winnipeg tues Day by Charles Mclaughlin of Montreal tax manager of can Adian industries limited. He advocated the principle of exclusive jurisdiction in taxation Fields during a panel Dis Cussion on the developing crisis n taxation in the Royal Alex Andra hotel. The discussion was Jart of the annual meeting of he Canadian chamber of com Merce. Or. Mclaughlin developed his argument by using recommendations from a Brief presented to he Quebec Royal commission on taxation by the Quebec charter accountants. He was a member of the special committee which prepared the proposals that he said were centred entirely on the problem of sharing fiscal responsibilities Between the Federal and provincial governments. Under the exclusive Prin Ciple the Federal government would be the sole taxing author to in income taxes the Provin Cial governments in consumption axes and the municipalities i real estate taxes. Other panellists were d. W. Each Montreal a partner in the chartered accountant firm of Mcdonald Currie co., and d. G. Willmot St. Catharines ont., president of Anthes Imperial limited a steel products com Pany. To Cut taxes the committee s conclusions or. Mclaughlin said were based on the premises that each government within Bounds of practicality should Levy taxes for Only its own needs and any Fis Cal refer study should strive to eliminate taxes of a pyramiding nature. He listed these advantages arising from implementation of the recommendations free use by each govern ment of the taxation Fields Over which they have authority thus eliminating the need for fiscal agreements Between governments and the possibility of encroach ment by one government upon the other. Each government by Levy ing taxes for its own needs Only and not for purposes of Grants to other jurisdictions would bring an end to conflicts arising from joint program. The joint ventures would be abolished. Income taxes exclusively under the authority of the fed eral Gover Simenc can be useful ools in molding economic excision. Provinces by relying on consumption taxes could expect establishment of a More stable level of revenues. Distinction of fiscal jurisdictions would eliminate administrative duplication in All tax collecting Fields particularly in administration and collection of income taxes succession duties and sales taxes. An analysis of the financial effects of these recommendations showed that the Federal govern ment would lose about Bil lion Revenue in excise taxes and duties succession duties and general sales tax. With exclusive rights to income taxes the Federal government would gain about million. But this difference he pointed out would be offset by the Federal government relieving it self of Many expenses which no longer would be necessary namely statutory Grants to the held in flin flon shooting flin flon Man.

The Federal government if the recommendations were implemented would be in no worse a financial position than it is now said or. Mclaughlin. On the contrary it would have a favourable balance of some two crises or. Willmot. Mentioned two crises in Canada s taxation less investment in private business and higher costs and lower economic growth rates. Causes have been the factors of More spending resulting in higher taxes and bigger deficits More taxes having combined to place an additional drag on per Sonal and corporate spending and investment and deficit financing through sales of government ones to the Public which Means government is competing for funds in the investment Market Vith the Economy s private Sec 1n unsound Structure of the in ire Canadian tax system.

We Are penalizing the whole Economy to the Benefit of other countries including the United states with its lower he said. A drop in corporate rates would bring extra income As business becomes More venture some and the second crisis a. Will Mot continued requires restructuring of personal income tax rates. The top personal rate should not exceed the top corporate rate if for no other reason than to discourage exorbitant corpor ate salary payments to1 executives.

Roblin said in a press re lease the government operates on the Low tender Price system and our policies have not been the Premier was commenting on a recent free press Story which said the government was contemplating a new policy which would give a slight competitive advantage to Manitoba buyers of goods. Or. Roblin said however the government plans to adhere to the present Public purchasing act which says provincial buying is to be conducted by the competitive Public tender system wherever possible. The act also says where Price and Quality Are equal Manitoba products purchased if possible. This extra Power is expected to take place next week when committee members gather in Winnipeg for their annual meet ing. The committee a Federal provincial body is concerned be cause the Southern Manitoba Community of la Riviere recently changed its name to Seeka Wye a phonetic spelling for the Call letters of a Winnipeg radio station. And Al though the change does t meet the committee s approval the radio station sky is insisting that la Riviere is now see Kay Wye. Committee members whose Job is to select names for unincorporated places and towns Are drawn from the ranks of Federal and provincial mines resources and Survey depart ment officials. Question but there is some question As to whether the committee has the Power to order companies like sky to desist from Chang ing Community names. E. A. Gauer Manitoba s representative on the committee said in an interview tuesday that As far As he was concerned la Riviere still retains its same name. But he said the committee May have to seek More Powers to ensure that it can Slop this Type of commercialization of place names. Our Only authority comes from orders in Council passed by each of the participating gov he said. We Haven t approved the new name of Seeka Wye but apparently the radio station thinks it does t need our motorists to get saving Premier Duff Roblin has announced that beginning with the new licensing year in february motorists will no longer have to pay a 50 cent fee into the unsatisfied judgement fund. Or. Roblin said wednesday the fee is being suspended because the fund will soon reach the statutory limit of that can be held in Trust at any one time. At present the amount of Money in the fund stands at about the fund was established in 1946 to provide compensation for injury or loss of life through the actions of uninsured or unknown Drivers. The problem first cropped up when la Riviere residents recently approved the name change by a 139 to 81 vote in an official referendum. Since then both the radio station and a television station have been urging citizens to come to see no request or. Gauer said however that no official request for the new designation had come from either the radio station or the town. Our impressions to the change Are he said. We think the proposed new name is contrary to the principles under which our com Mittee or. Gauer said he had Given his views in an Exchange of correspondence with the radio station. However he said the station apparently did t agree with the official viewpoint. As a result the future of see Kay Wye Manitoba will Bably be discussed next Mon Day at the committee s annual meeting Here. The discussion will Centre around possible Steps that can be taken to give the committee enough Power to Stop the commercialization of place Lames. The committee on geographic names meeting will kick off a three Day convention which will be attended by Federal and provincial Survey officers from across Canada. Guest speakers during the latter two Days of the convention will be Federal mines minister William Bene Dickson and provincial mines and resources minister Sterling Lyon. School bus Appeal decision delayed judge Leon h. Benard of St. Boniface county court will Pon Der two sets of Legal arguments before continuing to hear the Appeal of two parents convicted in april for failing to Send their children to school during last Winter s school bus dispute in St. Boniface. Judge Benard heard arguments tuesday concerning the disputed Points from l. R. Mit Chell Crown prosecutor and Wilfred de Graves defence at Torney. Later he said he would need time to make a decision and set oct. 13 As the Date when the Appeal hearing would resume. In april or. And mrs. Roger St. Onge of lot 140, St. Anne s Road St. Vital appeared in provincial police court and were each fined s45 for failing to Send three children to school Between Jan. 28 and feb. 11. In presenting the reasons for the Appeal to judge Benard tuesday or. De Graves said the conviction should be quashed because of illegal procedure in laying the charge and the in Correct wording of the school attendance act under which the charge was Laid. Or. De Graves said the information Given in april to the provincial magistrate s court was void because it was not Laid in the name of the Queen. The information was Laid in the name of p. T. Houston a school attendance offer in St. Vital or. De Graves said. The defence counsel argued that the information ought to have been Laid in the name of the Queen because contravention of the Manitoba school at Tendance act was a criminal offence that demanded punish ment. We Are not dealing with a civil he said. In Crim Inal procedure an individual May 1 a a complaint or provide information but the Crown takes up the or. De Graves maintained the Fine imposed on the parents indicated the act could be enforced Only through procedure used in criminal cases. In his second argument the conviction or. De Graves said the wording used to Lay the single charge did in fact cover two separate and Dis Tinct charges. This duplicity of charges makes the conviction or. De Graves said. The Manitoba school Atten dance act states if a Parent neglects or refuses to cause a child to attend some school the school attendance officer shall make a complaint against the Parent before a police mag Istrate or a Justice of the time to pay Case lawyer Challenge looms a Winnipeg lawyer intends to Challenge the right of the Crown to have magistrate Isaac Rice protected from civil proceedings for false arrest and the right of the1 criminal code of Canada to authorize such Protection. D Arcy Mccaffrey is acting for Silas Albert Mackabee 38, of 126 Lydia Street convicted aug. 31 by magistrate Rice after he had pleaded guilty to a charge of driving while his licence was suspended. Magistrate Rice set a Fine with an alternative three month jail term. When Mackabee a Manitoba rehabilitation Hospital employee asked for. Time in which to pay the Fine re fused him. I he did not have counsel at the trial. Or. Mccaffrey became involved after Mackabee s father Joseph Mackabee visited his Law office sept. 9 or. Mccaffrey went sept. 10 before or. Justice r. G. B. Dick son of court of Queen s Bench and without opposition obtained an order of Hareas Corpus to have Mackabee brought into the court the following Day. At that time or Justice Dick son agreed to or. Mccaffrey s request that Mackabee be released and. Given time to pay his Fine. He now has until april -1 to Duce the Money. The judge accepted or. Mccaffrey s Contention that Magis trate Rice should have specified on the warrant sending Mackabee to jail the reasons Why time to pay the Fine had not been granted. The criminal code sets out that except under certain specified circumstances anyone who asks for time to pay a Fine must have at least two weeks and also that if no tune is allowed the Magis trate must state Why time has been denied. However the code also allows a judge to order that even though a such As Mackabee has been held to have been wrong fully imprisoned no action for false arrest May be taken against the magistrate who sent him to jail or against the police or other officials involved. Or. Justice Dickson was not asked to make such an order two weeks ago the Crown has since apply for this Protection order for magistrate Rice. Or. Mccaffrey has announced his intention to fight the Protection order on behalf of Mackabee but would not say wednesday whether Mackabee has in fact decided to sue magistrate Rice for false arrest. If he did take proceedings against the magistrate this could Lead to the first civil jury trial in Winnipeg for several years or. Mccaffrey said. Or. Mccaffrey will also argue he said wednesday that the Sec Tion of the code allowing Protection orders against false arrest suits is unconstitutional since it deprives citizens of their com Mon civil remedies. Because of this new feature of the Case it will not be heard by or. Justice Dickson until oct. 20, instead of thursday As was originally planned ;
