The Federal authority s Deci Sion revolves around whether to hold tight now and face Tough demands after the expiry of a proposed two year tax agree ment or sweeten the offer now in the Hope that later demands will not be so High. The two expensive offers the Federal government has put Forth Are Transfer of four Points of personal income taxes and one per cent corporation in come taxes to help pay for higher education equal to about half the operating costs of universities and other Post secondary institutions. An improvement in equalization payments to have not provinces Worth about an other next year under new formula.

Sharp said no previous i j the following assertions for the Nance minister had exercised such regard for the British North America act and responsibilities it finds Dis tasteful this is Good for a cheer. On the other hand if a province marches to Ottawa being promised Little or nothing and ends up grab Bing millions that too gets a round of applause unless of course it is. Quebec and that is called a this sort of thing can get out of hand when people Start airily contemplating hundreds of millions As if they were peanuts instead of dollars. And the haggling Over tax Points this week has been brisk to say the least. We Don t want to Levy the toll any says Ottawa to the provinces. So take 17 Points Here another five there set the taxes yourself and Well talk it Over again in two if you insist groan the but we need More Points to do the if one keeps in mind that the going rate on one Grade a equalized Federal income tax Point is roughly 000 the exercise Borders on madness. The main Point is that next Spring when the receiver general sends around his personalized income tax forms it won t matter who has what Points or who levies what taxes. The Money comes from the same Humble pockets from Newfoundland to Van Couver Island. It was this very Point that a weary Mitchell Sharp Felt compelled to emphasize to weary newsmen before they banged out More extravagant stories about the sue China fires nuclear missile maps hit Wilson on tragedy London of parliament from both major parties accused prime minister Wilson s government Friday of trying to choke off Public com ment on the Coal slag disaster in Aberfan. Attorney general sir Elwyn Jones told the House of com Mons thursday that newspaper or television comment on the disaster could result in contempt of court proceedings. He said such comment could interfere with the work of the tribunal named to investigate the cause of the tragedy. Sir Knox Cunningham a conservative said newspaper invest to Gabon of the disaster would help to prevent similar occurrences. Sir John Hobson a former conservative attorney general said Public comment could produce information help Ful to the tribunal. Arthur Lyon a Laberite said the Legal profession would receive the attorney general s Rul ing with great regret. He said the tribunal was not Likely to be swayed by newspaper or television comment. Sile flew and the nuclear warhead hit the target at the appointed distance effecting a successful this statement which was repeatedly broadcast throughout i think Amr.

People s liberation with would be greatly strengthened and encouraged by China ceases s e t c k s of various premiers at the remember what we Are talking about is the said professor Sharp. We Are about Federal government distributing largesse and Are not talking about the provincial governments distributing my main objective As Canada s finance minister is to see that the interests of the taxpayer Are adequately protected. We must always remind ourselves that when we Are talking in terms of Federal and provincial governments it is always the same in other words when people Start referring to the provincial taxpayer and the Federal taxpayer Don t fall into the. Trap of thinking these Are two separate groups of canadians. There is Only one tax payer and it is you and it hurts. But there is no Point in throwing a Tantrum be cause governments make such financial demands on the citizenry. Municipalities provinces and countries need More Money. They need it to provide the e d u c a t n skilled training old age Security and medical care that individuals require and expect in the Complex society of this rapid Cen Tury.
