The Wingham Advance-Times, 1983-05-18, Page 31PRODUCT OF S. AFRICA GRANNY SMITH 196 APPLES O9* Ib. Page 6—Crossroads—May 18, 1983 As So that was the budget that was supposed to restore Liberal fortunes. However good or bad it was. as a budg- et has, at least for the mo- ment, been lost in yet an- other episode which displays Liberal bad judgment and insensitivity. What Marc La- londe did on budget night, by fiddling with the figures un- covered the day before by a cameraman's zoom lens, has re -confirmed the lingering suspicion held by many tax- payers that this government has adopted a rather cava- lier attitude to our money. If Marc Lalonde had stood in the House and said, "what's another couple of hundred million," he couldn't have confirmed the suspicion more clearly. Budget day in Ottawa was a disaster from beginning to end. Inflamed by the budget leak and the Prime Minister's off -hand response to it, one Tory Don Quixote after another mounted his charger and hurled himself at the formid- able figure of Mr. Trudeau, he bent their lances for them and back -handed them off their horses. You don't play the Prime Minister's joust- ing game unless you have something heavy to hit him with. Never mind poking at him with lances. If you haven't got a howitzer, for- get it. The NDP fared no bet- ter than the Tories, despite the fact that all their chargers were the tradition- al white. The problem for the challengers was that the budget ...leaks .weren't. really . _—much -of-an-issue:-As-Mare . ,--LalondementioneUun _h s .:: own defense, serious budg- etary leaks involve the pre- mature disclosure of tax matters. As it was, having a deficit figure before them that was just about what all the experts forecast, the markets hardly seemed to react at all. In other words,. despite the ham -handedness, no serious damage was done, and there would have been a good deal of sympathy for the finance minister if he had decided to tough it out. The Tories suggested after the leak that it would be despic- able if the Liberals changed the figures to nullify the un- fortunate pre -budget secur- ity breach. They were right. But if the economic recovery program had been reduced a little, to preserve integrity, that would have been less dispicable. To add to the deficit by a hundred million dollars while preaching re- straint was a piece of soul - shattering idiocy. What does that expensive stroke of the Liberal pen do to the morale of taxpayers, who despite their objections to shovelling money into a bottomless pit, insist on filing an honest in- come return? Mr. Lalonde's unjustifiable last-minute changes are an invitation to all of us to steal and cheat. And it is a hammer blow to the spirit of 6 and 5 and the public cooperation that Mr. Lalonde courted so ardently in his speech. The Liberals haven't restored their for- tunes — I'm afraid. They seem to have squandered the last few pennies they had. BOOK REVIEW THE LITTLE PRINCE. Written and drawn by An- toine de Saint-Exupery. Academic Press Canada, Don Mills, Ont. 7 by Ss/4 in. 96 pp. Paper $6.75. Reviewed by PERCY MADDEX -The Little Prince" is not a prince at all as we under- stand the word. He was a boy from a small planet, maybe an asteroid, and because he came to earth he got into a book by Antoine de S'aint- Exupery translated into English from the French by Katherine Woods. The boy's age is not given. In the desert of Africa he meets an aviator, who tells us the story. Itis a very ima- ginative tale told in a unique way, a sort of modern fairy tale. The author of this tale was born in 1966 and died ht Imo, one year after the hook first appeared in English transla- tion. It deserves to he re- garded as a classic. Now it is available in paper cover. Those who saw the moving picture wig he especially charmed with this narrative,. S N SCHNEIDERS BEEF STEAKETTES r-� Specials in effect until closing Tues.
