Consequently, Mr. Abbott has not left himself trio vulnerable by producing a financial plan which, for lack of a more, exciting description, might be penned a tourist budget. In banishing the 13 per ;etit excise tax from a number of consumer goods, iiiid reducing it to 10 per cent on a variety of others, lie has paid recognition to the fact that Canada has lost its favorable balance of tourist trade. Canadians spend more in other countries tbkn visitor. -ido here, a situation that must he caused to some extent by higher Canadian prices. Mr. Abbott strengthens his careful case still further by extending tax concessions to a certain class of industry to reduce exploration costs. In an age of growing need to develop Canada's natural resources, such a move can only be regarded as necessary to keep in step with the times.
