The Brussels Post, 1949-6-15, Page 2► ► THE BRUSSELS POST Canadians have never willingly elected to power a government which has failed to remain faithful to the democratic principle of free enterprise. By their insistence on retaining emergency powers granted for war only, the Liberals have confused and frustrated every branch of our economy by amass of ever-changing orders and regulations. Canada's future, your own future and the future of your children hang in the balance. On June 27th, vote for the Progres- sive Conservative Party which will insist on government being the servant of the people—not the master! HIGHLIGHTS OF PLATFORM TAX REFORMS Income tax exemptions will be raised to $1,250 for single persons and to $2,500 for married people. Allowances for dependent children will be increased by $200. The present heavy sales tax, which cuts the purchasing value of the dollar by more than the tax, will be sharply reduced. All unnecessary nuisance taxes will be abolished. FARM SECURITY We will ensure stability of income to farmers by the enactment of permanent floor price legislation. We will incorporate into the Farm Prices Support Act a definite formula for arriving at floor prices, to be set only after con- sultation with representatives of producers. Floor prices will always be an- nouced well in advance of the production period. SMALL BUSINESS With sky-high taxes owners of small businesses have been left with far too little of their profits to carry out desirable programs of expansion. We will grant exemptions to private business where profits are re -invested in enterprise and expansion. We will also encourage business in general by allowing the Canadian dollar to find its own level. BETTER SOCIAL SECURITY We will make available to every Canadian by a "Contributory Social Security Program; Retirement Pensions at 65 without a Means test; sick- ness and disability benefits; extended un -employment insurance benefits with payment for lost time, due to accidents or sickness. We Further Pledge ® Family allowances paid at the same level regardless of the number of children. O Immediate completion of the Trans- Canada highway. @t A free market for gold. 0 Government extravagance and In- creased spending will be cul. O The development of natural resources to provide lobs for all. These are but a few of the more important features of the Progressive Conservative Program.

Our lathes, dynamos, drill presses, farm combines, tractors, business machines, etc. are producing goods and services which earn dollars. These dollars provide food, clothing, medical care and other necessities which contribute to our security and high standard of living. Every single one of us, therefore, has a very personal interest in the flow of a steady supply of trained workers 'to.industrial plants. These workers will operate machines which are important to our way of life.' We should appreciate, then, the co-operative efforts of government, industry and labour in' the field of employee training. In schools and in factories our workers, young and old, are given the opportunity to develop new and specific skills in every field of business and industrial activity, For instance, every effort on the part of office workers to become pro• ficient in typing, filing, shorthand and secretarial work, will mean greater business efficiency—will help to ].Hake Ontario a finer place in which to live and work, THE BREWING INDUSTRY (ONTARIO) Our Way of Life Rewards Trained Mends Ontario 'workers know they can earn more, have executive responsibility and enjoy a higher standard of living in direct ratio to the skills they ac- quire and the way 'they make use of them.
