Phiramdas Daulatram, India's' minister lor food and agriculture, watches a modern tractor at work pn the Ganjja Khadir Colony reclamation -project sponsored by the government of India, in an effort to grow more food and rehabilitate refugee families.

But j they paid taxes averaging The Lumber Situation TO BE UNEXPECTED is the lower price NOT development in the lumber market which was " told about in a week-end dispatch. Prices for some time have been exorbitant. Indeed, much major building activity has been deferred or even cancelled because of the high price situation, not only -'-in lumber rjut all building materials. Now, in spite of the great need and desire to build, something of a buyers' strike has been developing. A price re-. cession was, therefore, bound to come. If all concerned in the production and handling of lumber from the raw material to tbf finished product are reasonable about the matter and cooperate towards economy of production and marketing, an orderly movement from producer to consumer may still be maintained, sustaining employ-' went or reasonable profit for all those who benefit ;;.frpm the industry which is of major importance, particularly in the economy of British Columbia. There is a great demand and market for lumber from a vast need for construction not only in this .',rcountry but throughout the world. A gradual and , orderly scaling down of prices would appear to be essential if it is to be taken advantage of fully. ' There is no need for a panic but there will have to :be a readjustment from abnormal profit and wage conditions which have prevailed in lumber production since the war days when it was a case of "lumber at any price." SALES TAX ON NEWSPRINT TiERE IS an eight percent tax on newsprint in Canada and the request has been formally made Jay the Canadian Daily Newspaper Association Ji;that it be removed. This request has been made TTfout without reason. The tax does not apply to magazines published in Canada or periodicals from the United States, or eornip and pulp fiction pub- : lications. But it does apply to every daily and week--ly paper in Canada and, from the standpoint of .necessity and usefulness, the latter are considered J more essential than the other.
