Manning raps tax haste by Paul Jackson Ottawa staff the Man who was Premier of Alberta for 25 years says the Federal gov eminent has shown Complete d i s r e g a r d for the responsibilities of the Senate. Senator Ernest Manning told the Senate wednesday that by asking it to pass the Mammoth tax Reform Bill within a period of about four Days senators have been placed in an untenable position. The government plans to hand Over the 707-Page Bill on Friday. It wants it approved before the end of this year. The Senate which does t sit on weekends would normally recess for Christmas the follow ing Friday. The former social credit pre Mier told the Senate that As far As the Bill itself is concerned it is inaccurate and misleading to suggest that senators can give a Bill of such magnitude and importance the examination it requires in such a Short period of time. It is utterly impossible for us As a Senate to discharge our responsibility with respect to this Bil by the end of the preset year. If it is to been acted into Law i feel we should make it very Clear to the Cana Dian people that this very important piece of legislation did not receive the meaningful in Dorsa Tion of this he snid. Senator Manning said the Best the Bill can receive in the Short time it has in the Senate is ceremonial consent. He said senators could not lightly Slough off the responsibility that rests on each of them to carefully Analyse legis lation they have to vote on. The Alberta senator also said the principle of enacting into Law legislation of High importance while admitting that it is still far from satisfactory from the standpoint of contents and craftsmanship is fundamentally unsound. The government itself acknowledges that substantial amendments will be necessary perhaps As Early As the next British Airport guarded London a British de t e c t i v e s and Airport police alarmed by a machine gun at tempt to kill Jordan s Ambas s a d o r to Britain mounted heavy guard on London Airport today searching passengers for weapons As three jordanian princes flew off to Amman.

Ambassador z a i d Al Rifai whose chauffeur driven limousine was blasted with 30 to 4 sub machine gun Bullet wednesday in a palestinian House of commons session but it still insists on forcing it into Law prior to such amendments being made. Such techniques violate the Basic principle of sound and proper parliamentary proce Dure. Is something the Ca Nadian people have a right to know and to protest against. We have an obligation to pro test on their behalf said sen. Manning. Speaking about taxation re form in general he said the experience Canada has gained in the last few years about tax re form has surely proven that j sweeping changes in the in i tire tax Structure enacted at j one time is not the Best Way to implement such Reform. He told the Senate the Long and rather painful process of. Analysing Canada s taxation system should have convinced everyone that deficiencies could not be ironed out at one go.
