Defence Pact

Athens, Feb, 20,

Deputies of the Foreign Ministers of Greece, Turkey and Yugoslavia today began talks in Athens to draft the text of a “political pact" which will be signed by the Ministers early in March in Ankara.

The agreement will be on the line of a pact of friendship and close co-operation and will provide a framework for military co-operation.

It is believed that, as a result of the tripartite military talks now proceeding in Ankara, no special military pact will be signed.

Canada Slashes

Taxes

Ottawa, Feb. 20.

The Government, count- ing on $1,000,000,000 bulge in its booming econo- my this year, has ordered an 11 per cent cut in personal income taxes.

The Finance Minister, Mr Dougins Abbolt, in placing the budget before Parliament› last night, said Canada could afford taxos,

to slash $243,000,000 in spend more, and still balance the budget. He estimated the value of all goods and services produced by Canadians will in- creme to a record $24.000.000.000 this coming year, up $1,000,000 000 over the past year. Canada'a mining, forestry and manufac- turing industries are booming.

The Oppoallion Progressive Conservatives assailed the bud- get as an election year bid return the Liberal Government of Prime Minister Louis St Laurent to

to power. Most poll- ticians expect an elections this year, October 5 being the date mont frequently mentioned.

The budget slashed corpora- taxes, cased cigarette taxes by four cents a pack and cut out nuisance taxes on

chenues and on unpopular $2.50 licence fees on radion, besides providing an 11 per cent cut in personal income levies beginning July 1.

M. Mucdonnel, chief financial critic for the Oppor tion, complained that the bud- get gave virtually en tax relief to lower income brackets.

Canadian income taxes in the lower levels tend to be lower than stoltar Jevies in the United States.
