.•Ths :Family.
All across • Canada' these days,
municipal' councils have been
wrestling with the arch -villain
Of 'all ,time, a mysterious mons-
ter called The Budget; :
• Although he is. made up from
a combination of concrete things
like.. sewers ;and: schools. . and
streets, .The Budget himself ' is
an•abstract thing •Wis.like The
Devil. Tou 'can't see:bim or hear
him or. even smell him. YOU
can't really understand him, but
you know he is there:' 'a •blind,•
;malignant creature 'that cannot
be controlled... '•
You can fight him and get
a. bloody nose. You can hammer
at him,' ;chisel at him, chop at.
him .— and all you get are a'
broken ' hammer, a 'dull chisel
and a,blunted axe:'
The Budget is lite: an oc%opt's.
Be growsbigger every,year. His
i
appetite. ncreases,. his 'tentacles:
become longer and stronger 'and
more . strangling as he grows. •
• And' when you try to come to
grips with him,:. he exudes a
cloud of black (or .red) ink
which obscures him , from view.
Of ' what ingredients. is. The
Budget composed? Really, he's a
• two -headed monster, a regular
Siamese twin.
On the one hand, it is just a
big bundle of sugar and spice:
new schools. new industries. a
new library or community'
centre; wider streets; better
lighting,' sewage disposal and
snow plowing.',Progress, culture,
civilization, . comfort: At first
glance it appears .'that The
Budget is the, most desirable
thing mah has dreamed up since
The Devil. .
'And ori the other hind, he 'is
snags' and Snails' and puppy -dog
tails. That's what, little towns are
made of. And big towns too.
And the reason for all this, of
course,' is that The Budget, this
big, ugly, 'unmanageable brute
who is impervious to human
feeling, fell in love, by some
chemical accident, while 'a mere
hulking' lunk of a boy, with a'
a girl called Milly Rate. Most of
us know her as Mill,,
•
She is just as unprepossessing
as her husband. 'She is steely-
eyed,, relentless, unscrupulous
•
Taxes Us .All/
• and ' absolutely . without mercy,
'charm, pity, looks, or. any.of the
qualities we norinally associate
' with that lovely creation known
as the ' female of the species. 1 •
• . have known Mill Rate since the
was a' 'girl,. and I aur here to
state, without : apology, .that. she
is 'a•
Pi1K• .
It's .. difficult to believe .that
such. •a bunion could produce pro-
geny. But it did. His .name:. is
Taxes: • • •.
Taxes' career. has been about
what ' you would expect from
such parents,. He was an un
pleasant child from the begin-
ning.
Unwanted, unloved, reject-,,
ed at 'every turn, whiney, > de-
manding.
: He . hasn't changed much, ex-
cept _that .hes ._gr'own, He is now,__`_..
a : big slob, 'over fed, under=
worked,, menacing if he :doesn't
get his allowance right on time,:
sulky,if someof it is held back.
But he has a lot of promise.'
Around.. ' 'election time. He's . .
going to cut the lawn, and wash
the car, and': paint the trim and
.snnarten'the,,old place up so .you. •:
.wouldn't know. it.' 0
But: somewhere along: the: line
something goes haywire. He.cutit
the trees, -paints the : lawn; and
washes the. • lake,. and . figure*,
after one year, that his . allow-
ance Is not' big enough. .
For some. reason -- and it
certainly isn't. his. winning per-
, sonality Taxes has become
the most -talked -about man . in .
town: Mayors develop dyspepsia,,
councilors • coronaries, when
they try to. deal •with this delin=;,
qulent.
• They can't quite 'handle him.
He . ' talks so. glibly of govern -
merit grants on , outdoor toilet
systems under, the 'winter works
program, and potential pot -holes
in the roads, and (with a heart-
rending •sob). of the people on
welfare, that he bamboozles
councilors with eyes like agates,,
-and mayors with hearts; of gran
ite;
All I can say is that the ' mu- • '
nicipal councils have my' bless-
ing as they strive to tope with.
Taxes, out of Mill Rate and The
Budget.
