The Government would raise the re- quieed money by floating a loan, thus throwing on. the future -and eft the returned soldiers -a burden the stay - at -hones should bear. For such work as this eve should pay as we go. The government control would mean double, and its seine 1 cases treble, taxation. Municipalities all over the Dominion are taxing themselves for the Fund. So ate many prcrrinces. It would not be fair to re -tax these bodies, while other ' districts were escaping with only the Federal tax, Tile governmental cantrol would re- duce the amounts the ricin now con- tribute to the Fund, and place a heavier burden on the shoulders of the poorer men. It would take from all, rich and poor, the privilege of', doing something of their ewu free will, and, through acts of self-sacri- fice, assist in winning the great struggle. And it wruld, by stifling the out -pouring of pithlic spirit that has been so conspicuous, work to the distinct disadvautege of the com- munity. News -Record Means News -Leader.
