As the pric of wheat went down, and it would go down owing to the large production possible by the use of modern machinery, It became more and more a competitor with rice and would be consumed in the Orient to a far greater extent than today. This would mean the greater development of western ports. Stanley Burke, president of the D. C.

Stevens and Brady are telling us that the Liberal Government has increased taxation bemuse Canada now esslleeU more taxes than when the Liberals came into power. This Is a half truth and Is worse than a whole lie because It is made with the Intent to make the electors believe the rate of taxation has not been reduced. Mackenzie King says very jusUy that he Is entlUed to commendation for having continuously reduced the rate of taxation during the last six years, though the amount of revenue collected has increased materially. As a country prospers and business increases more taxes are collected although the rate may be greatly reduced. Mr . Brady once taught mathematics. Let us give him a simple problem in arfthmetlo: 'If a business man on a $80,000 turnover pays a 6 business "tax or $1200, what tax will he pay on a $800,000 turnover when "the rate is reduced to 1? The answer of course Is $2,000. More "taxes, but rate reduced 'from six to one." The Mackenzie King' Government reduced the Sales TJa f rom 6 in 1023 t6'K4"in'l924; to 4 In lD2T;'tb'3 In 1928:-to 2 in 1929 and to 1 in 1930, and all our other taxes have been similarly reduced by the Liberal Government and yet Messrs. Stevens and Brady continue In their attempt to deceive the electors Into the belief that their taxes have not been rrduced. They cannot meet the government squarely on the big issues of the day such as the Imperial Preferential Tariff and the Econom ..: Conference but fritter away the time of the people In discussing "five cent pieces" and "when Is a tax reduction not a tax reduction."
