Post Office Department, Ottawa.\u201d THE ALDERMEN AND CIVIC APATHY From time to time in recent months, complaints have been forthcoming from various members of the Sherbrooke City Council at the lack of interest shown by the average citizen in the affairs of the municipality, This complaint has been particularly noticeable following the recent plebiscite on the filtration issue, when barely eighteen per cent of the qualified electors cast their ballots.To a degree this complaint about civic apathy may be justified, but the aldermen should remember that the maintenance of interest by the ratepayers is a two-sided proposition.If the Aider-men really want the public to show interest in municipal matters, they should make some attempt to show that such interest is appreciated.And certainly, the conduct of the average aider-men, perhaps unconsciously, has exactly the opposite effect.In the recent filtration project plebiscite, cursory efforts were made to get out the vote.Advertisements were run asking each and every elector to exercise his franchise.But, unfortunately, no effective means were taken to explain just who could vote and where the individual was to cast his ballot.Thus many persons who were entered on the list were unaware of their right to vote, while hundreds, or even thousands, of other taxpayers trotted to the polling station where they had been accustomed to vote only to find that their names were not on the list or were on the list at some other poll.Several electors are known to have visited live polling stations before they voted or g-ave up in disgust.Before the ratepayers are called on again to give their views on any municipal issue, the aldermen should take appropriate action to see that recently revised lists are used and that the elector be clearly informed as to where he votes.Another matter which serves to increase public apathy and even disgust with local municipal affairs is the habitual delay experienced in the opening of the regular council sessions.This week's session offers case in point.While a substantial group of proprietors were in attendance at eight o\u2019clock, the scheduled opening time, the clock had passed the 9.30 mark before the aider-men saw fit to emerge from the committee room.This is depressing to would-be civic conscious citizens who seek to gain some information on the conduct of municipal affairs.If the occurrence of Monday night were an isolated instance, it might be excused.But rather, this ninety-minute delay has become habitual.If the aldermen cannot start the sessions within a reasonable delay, ' ment, taking cognizance of tin* reduced purchas- ; of Canadians j expenditures to a point where the taxation burden could be cut as i partial compensation.But the Government .appears totally immune to this change in condi- Press Comment Do You Know?tions, preferring to boost expenditures in the belief that the average taxpayer does not care much as long as the overall expenditure does not exceed the wartime levels.They are encouraged in their spending sprees by the oft-expressed belief that the taxes are paid essentially by the rich and that the mass of the income of the Dominion is in the hands of a few people.However, a recent compilation by the income tax authorities reveals that the aggregate net incomes of the 11,817 individuals in Canada who had incomes of $10,000 or more, even before the deduction of taxes, amounted to only 5.8 per cent of total income payments to all individuals in Canada.Thus it is readily apparent that even if the taxation of higher incomes were continued at its present almost confiscatory limits, these taxes would finance only a small portion of the governmental expenditure.The great bulk of government cost must be borne by the average income earner and there can be no hope for any relief of this burden unless these taxpayers unite and impress upon the government of the day that what is wanted is a return to sanity in federal finance, whereby a reasonable level of taxation will meet the government cost, rather than the thinking up of means of spending-money and new levies to raise it.The following article is taken from the daily column written by Elmore Philpott, which appears on the editorial page of the Vancouver Sun.Mr.Philpott is also known across Canada as a radio news commentator.What he says in this column about the apathy of voters in Toronto and Vancouver applies equally in Sherbrooke where recently only eighteen per cent of the eligible voters turned out to cast their ballots for, or against, the building of a filtration plant -a matter that affected the pure water supply of the city.EDITOR.are not Mr.King and hi* Ministers\tQ\u2014When did the sihof put

Pan-American Air Lines and the British Government offers an effective example of this danger, which may well become more frequent as governments insist upon going into business in the international field.When a Provincial government decides to operate a power plant, or a chain of feed stores, or a line of grain elevators, no one outside of that particular province ii very much interested, except possibly the Dominion Government, whose treasury is losing between $100,000.000 and $125,000,000 through the inability to collect income taxes on businesses operated by various government bodies.When the Dominion Government decided to operate the Canadian National Railways, it was a matter which essentially concerned the people of this country.The general viewpoint was that if the people of Canada were willing to spend nUMe rrpney each year to have a railway system run by the government than they would have to spend if it were run by a private corporation, it was strictly the business of the people of Canada who in the But the minute international business, there is going to be plenty of room for argument between the people in one country and the people in another.In the recent incident,
