The Ontario government should introduce a special education tax on income to replace the present system of education taxes on property, Ontario Federation of Agriculture President Gordon Hill told a news conference Tuesday. The proposal, outlined by Mr. Hill, calls for an education tax of 3.27percent on personal income, and 11.61 percent on corporate income, based on 1969-70 figures. Taxation at these rates would raise the $735 million derived from municipal taxes on property in 1969-70. This proposal is the latest move in the Ontario Federation of Agriculture's campaign for education tax reform in Ontario.

Last fall, the farmers' organization encouraged property owners to withhold the education portion of their property taxes. It was protesting the fact that property owners must pay almost half the costs of education. The Ontario Federation of Agriculture advocates a system in which education costs are distributed on the basis of ability-to-pay. Said Mr. Hill, "Our proposal for a special provincial tax on income for educational purposes is a serious attempt to find a way out of the current dilemma. `That education taxes on property are obsolete and inequitable, there is no doubt. We recognize, on the other hand, the difficulty the provincial government has in removing plays. A Student Council dance, which will be open to parents, wilt wind up Education Week Friday night. The Exeter Public School also has plans for the week. School will be open to the public March 9, 10 and 11 when parents will be allowed to come into the classrocims.to observe the class in session.

Our figures show that the province would lose $122 million to the federal government if it paid all education costs out of general tax revenues." Education taxes being a deductible expense for farms and businesses, taxable incomes would increase. The province shares income tax revenues with the federal government. "Our proposal for a special education tax on income overcomes this difficulty. This special tax would be a deductible expense for regular income tax purposes. Thus the province would not lose tax revenues to the federal government." Mr. Hill said that the Ontario Federation of Agriculture would present its proposal for education tax reform to the government of Ontario for consideration. "We believe this is a completely workable and acceptable proposal and we look forward to its early implementation." TAX TROUBLE?
