But she remains anonymous to
most taxpayers along with the
hundreds of other employees of
the income tax department. Her
job is to sort out the income tax
forms that demand a rebate—
and there is $60,000,000 to be
refunded to Canadians who
overpaid for 1951. The depart

F Of A Requests
Beef Price Review
Directors of Huron County
Federation of Agriculture have
gone on record as requesting the
Ontario Federation of Agricul
ture to ask that the flooi* price
set for beef be reviewed May 3
for July and August.
It, was felt by the directors
that the short term floor price as
set at the present time could
have a harmful effect on the
farmers who were interested in
holding their cattle on the farm
until later in the suinmer.
For Hospital
Recent voluntary donations to
the Hospital Fund are: George
Hicks, Centralia, $20; Mrs. J.
