The pacts call for higher\nrentals when production and\npopulation increase.\nThis year the over-all payments\nmay total about $320,000,000, down\nsome $2,000,000 from 1954 because\nof the 1954 decline in production.\nNext year the total may increase\nby about $25,000,000 because of\nthis year's rise.\nI{ now  appears  there  may  be\nonly a small decline, in over-al\ndefence spending so that total\nbudget expenditures for 1956-57\nmay be about the same as the\ncurrent year \u2014 approximately\n$4,500,000,000.\nHowever, officials concede that\nwith the general rise in economic\nproduction, there likely will be\nroom for some tax cuts in 1956-57\nthough they feel the government\nmay not make any major reductions fearing it may encourage\ninflation.\nInformants laid It was too\nearly to Indloato Jurt where\n1956 tax reductions will be\nconcentrated, but It appears\nthere will be at least tome decreases In commodity excise\ntaxes and perhaps some tiny\nreduction In personal Income\ntaxes.\nII._________M_.____III_IIII...I_.I-I_..II.__I\nJudge Pitied Him\nMONTREAL (CP) \u2014 The\nChristmas story that John E.\nVarln told touched ^he heart\nof Judge Henri Monty.\nVarln, 40, a barber, Is sober\n364 days a year, he told the\nJudge, but when Christmas\ncomes, pop goes the bottle.\n\"It's terrible,\" he said after\npleading guilty to a loitering\ndrunk charge, \"I take a few\non that day only.

To\nassist them 1he government contributes from 45 to\/95 per cent of\nthe cost of education in the various districts, depending upon taxable resources of each.\nMr. Willlston's statement came\nin answer to the B.C. School\nTrustees' Association resolution at\nthe recent Qualicum Beach convention asking for a check on\ncentralization of school authority,\nand for restoration to local authorities of \"a much larger degree\nof control over administrative\nmatters which as elected representatives of the taxpayers they\nhave previously enjoyed.\"\nThe minister's statement is Included in the annual report of\nthe B.C. School Trustees' Association, now being prepared for distribution.\nIn another statement replying\nto a trustee resolution asking for\nrevision of the present school\nbuilding manual he indicated the\nimmediate objective is to meet\nB.C.'s constant demand for more\nclassrooms and building regulations are designed to that end.\nMr. Williston admitted present\nconstruction standards are \"conservative\", but if more expensive\nschools were permitted fewer\nwould be built and a situatiort that\nis already difficult would be intensified.\n\"Even with existing standards\nit is most difficult to keep up with\nthe expanding school population,\"\nhe said.\nHe invited proposals from\n\u25a0;ehool boards for future revision\nof the school building manual.\nWith respect to a requested increase in number of inspectors he\nreplied that in the period 1948-55\nthe inspectorial staff. had been\nincreased from 35 to 49, with consequent reduction in the size of\ninspectorates.\nBut, he warned, \"It is undesirable and uneconomic to continue\nindefinitely reducing the size of\ninspectorates and drawing off\nhighly qualified principals to the j\ninspectorial staff.\" i\nMr. Williston indicated a new j\nplan involving appointment of\nteacher-consultants by school\nboards, would be offered shortly\nalong with regulations to govern\nthe appointments.\nThe convention had requested\nthat Increases in budgets due to\nhigher teachers' salaries, whether\nby negotiation or arbitration, be\nincluded in \"approved in<rrease,s\"\nCANON YERBURGH\nAnglican Cleric\nAt Fernie To Go\nTo Kimberley\nFERNIE \u2014 Rev.

Everyone concerned with the housing of a rapidly-increasing population has\nbeen compelled to promote better planning\nof all the utilities upon which housing depends.\nNew housing has required not only tHe\nexpenditure (mainly private) or! land, building materials and labor, but a vast public\ninvestment in sewers, water supply, drainage, paved streets and power lines\u2014not to\nmention schools, buses, fire and police protection and a great many other services.\nBeset by demands for such services from\nevery quarter, municipal authorities have\nbeen forced by acute financial stringency to\nintroduce orderliness and foresight into their\nprogramming of public works. Out of thia\nexperience, especially in the areas of most\nrapid growth, has come a determination to\nprevent the development of scattered residential areas which are costly to equip.\nLet us look at the causes of \"fringe development\". In the absence of'controlled,\ngrowth, and faced by a grave shortage of\nhousing, thousands of people have settled\npn unserviced land outside the built-up\nareas\u2014in many cases outside the organized\nmunicipalities. Some just want to get away\nfrom the crowded city. Others of low income\nar* attracted by cheaper land; many of\nthem can build their own homes without\nconflicting with building codes. For many\npeople, the lack of sewers and public water\nsupply may seem, for the time being at least,\nto be minor handicaps compared to the high\ncost* of urban life.\nBut, as time goes on, with the pressure\noif population, the sprawling suburbs become\n^ trying problem for the public authorities;\nSome of them eventually have to be serviced\nfor more intensive use. In some areas, the\nland may be of such a character as to be\nunsuitable for underground utilities except\nat excessive cost. Others, suitable for industrial use, cannot be made available for that\npurpose without the removal of scattered\nhomes already built. In still others, where a\nreplotting is desirable for intensive residential development, the way may be blocked\nby existing uses. Still more expense is added\nby requirements for schools, fire and police\nprotection, health services and other collective facilities. Providing such services for\nscattered communities represents a great\nfinancial waste; and, to make matters worse,\nunder our antiquated system of municipal\nboundaries, the problem of providing the\nservices often falls between two or more\nautonomous local governments, rural and\nurban.\nA* the general state of the Canadian\neconomy ii examined with a view toward\nsustaining a high level of activity, the question \"How are we to maintain the present\nrate of building?\" is a vital one. Among\nbuilders as well as consumers, it is leading\nto a closer study of the economics of urban\nexpansion. Hitherto this has tended to be a\nresidual problem\u2014a headache left over for\nlocal government\u2014while house-builders and\nhouse-buyers went single-mindedly about\ntheir immediate business. An uneasy feeling\nis now developing that the backlog of utility financing left to the taxpayers as such\nmay compel a slowing up in the extension\nof municipal services and put the brakes on\nnew building.\n(These extracts from the Canadian Bank\nof Commerce commercial letter will be continued.)\nPress Comment\nNew Zealand government officials are\nhaving trouble disposing of a vast heap of\nunused war medals. After World War II,\nheroes entitled to medals were required to\nfill in a form setting out their qualifications\nand requesting the medals be forwarded.\nVeterans, however, say \"I couldn't care less.\"\nA clearcut case of too much government\nmeddling\u2014Sherbrooke Record.\nWe don't like toll bridges' and toll highways.

Why a light\nbulb I cannot say, except that\npeople are always excited on\nChristmas Day, and little girls\nespecially.\nTha  Little  Light Bulb\nThe little girl and her mother\nhad gone shopping in the big city\nnear the pellucid waters of Lake\nVoonoit. There they had wandered\ntogether through the large department stores, buying their Christmas presents for those at home-\nDaddy, Big Brother and the dog.\nAt last, their Shopping all done,\nthey were waiting for a bus when\nthe little girl \u2022 (her name was\nSusie) said to her mother: \"Look\nMummy, look what t had gived\nme, a light bulb, a dear little light\nbulb. Santa Claus in the store\ngived it to me.\"\n\"How stupid of Santa,\" said her\nmother. \"What can be the good\nof a ten-watt bulb? It doesn't give\nmuch light. In fact, it is a pretty\ndim bulb. Why,\" she said suspiciously, with visions of incipient\njuvenile delinquency in her mind,\n\"did Santa give you that?\"\n\"I told him I wanted it and he\nsaid I was a bit of a dim-bulb too,\nbut he gave it to me.\"\n\"Well,\" said her mother, \"I guess\nyou can kee\u00a3 it. What are you going to do with it?\"\n\"I shall take it home and give it\nto Daddy or Brother.\"\nSo when the little girl got home\nshe told her daddy all about the\nlittle light bulb and what Santa\nhad said, and Daddy listened carefully and said maybe he could use\nit, but when she had gone to bed\nhe remarked to her mother that\nperhaps Santa was right, and that\ntheir girl was a bit of a dim-bulb.\nThe next day the little girl\nasked her daddy when he was\ngoing to use her bulb (little girls\nare always asking their daddies\nwhen they are going to do something), and Daddy said he would\nput it irvthe porch light, but when\nhe put it in there was not enough\nlight to see if it was the dog or\nBig Brother on the step, so Daddy\nsaid that he did hot think he\ncould use it. The little girl cried,\nand told her brother that he could\nhave it. but he wouldn't take it. so\nshe put it away with her other\ntoys in the drawer.\nLITTLE BULB HELPS\nA day or two later her father\ncame in from his workshop. His\nlight had gone out and he wanted\na new bulb. There were none In\nthe house, and Susie eagerly reminded him of the little dim bulb.\nHe was about to say \"Nonsense\"\nwhen his wife reminded him that\nhe could use an extension cord to\nbring the light nearer.

Not everybody\nloves television quizmasters. A\nmlxtui$ of opera and television\nquiz has exploded ln an international controversy.\nThe 'quizmaster, with 2,500,000\nlire (more than $4000) hanging on\nthe answer, asked his contestant\na tough one\u2014and it turned out\nthat not even the quizmaster\ncould be sure of the answer. The\ncontroversy crossed the ocean to\nthe celebrated American expert\non opera, Italian-born shoemaker\nGina Prato, whose knowledge of\nthe subject won him $32,000 on an\nAmerican- TV show. He had an\nanswer. It didn't jibe with the\nItalian answers.\nThe question: \"In which opera\ndid Giuseppe Verdi first use the\ncontra-bassoon?\"\nSTUNNED  BY QUERY\nContestant Lando Degoll, 36-\nyear - old mathematfcs teacher,\nlooked stunned.\nFor years Degoli had been an\nardent amateur student of the history of lyric music. Like Prato, he\nseemed to know all there was to\nknow. That was why, ln the first\nplace, he had gone so far on\nItaly's \"Double or Nothing\" get-\nrich-quick quiz show. One could\nhave sworn nothing could stop\nthis expert from doubling again\nand walking off with the top 5,-\n000,000-Iire prize.\n\"I don't know,\" said Degoli\nhelplessly.\nThe answer said, \"Don Carlos.\"\nDIG THROUGH SCORE8\nOutraged music experts began\ndigging through old Verdi scores.\nThey announced that the answer\nwasn't \"Don Carlos\" at all. Verdi,\nthey said, used the contra-bassoon\nin the score of \"Macbeth\" a full\ntwo years earlier, in 1865.\nAcross the Atlantic cables\nhummed with the question. Opera\nexpert Prato was consulted. Was\nit \"Don Carlos' 'or \"Macbeth\"?\nBoth wrong, said Prato. It was\n\"Nabucco\", all the way back in\n1842. Furthermore, the New York\nPublic Library's music department said it would go along with\nPrato.\nBut in Rome, maestro Raffaeli\nTenaglia, director of archives at\nCasa Ricordi of Milan, publishers\nof Verdi, said he checked the\nwhole \"Nabucco\" score and found\nno contra-bassoon. He didn't find\nany in \"Macbeth\", either, for that\nmatter, but said Verdi might have\nrevised it later and inserted it.\nWith the newspapers still raising the roof, the Italian state-\nowned radio-television network\nwas'in hot water. It decided to\nname a commission to determine\nwhether the question was fair.\nIf the question is ruled unfair.\nDegoli gets another craek at the\n2500.000-lire question.\nSMOOTH\nSAILING\nALWAYS...
