As a clearing house for the ideas of nations both large and small, Mr. Resker felt the UN had done a great deal to encour- and out the cause, but took no action. Mr, McGauley felt the tense situation in the Suez was coused to a great extent by the U.N. through the division of Israel. When Britain and France could get no help from the UN on the closure of the Suez Canal by Egypt, they had taken matters into thelr own hands, ‘The Unit- ed Nations, he pointed out, did nothing, but later sent in troops, the barn door after the horse is stolen,’ or what might be termed ‘locking |- Hospital Meet ‘Continued from page 1} the Honorable Eric Martin, say- ing he thought the Minister an excellent speaker.

Mr, McGauley agreed that the UN does a certain amount of good, and breeds organizations that are good, but pointed out among some of the glaring failures were the Hungarian crisis, where over 2 per cent of the entire population had to leaye homes, posessions and familids.

Let's ‘say your husband paid $2800 for a new automobile. How much is he paying in taxes on the actual price of the car? ‘Enough to pay for your two week's vacation twice over, Sales tax’ on the: car would be $170, and excise tox about $280. Approximate total: $450. Each year, Canadians make out their income taxes, mutter briefly over how much tax they pay on, their salary, ‘and .promptly forget taxes until next year. Few ‘people realize they:pay staggering taxes every time they buy anything from shoes to tooth- paste, and from diapers to laper pins. There is a customs tax, excise tax, sales tax and luxury tox, which makes Canada one of the world’s highest taxed nations. These hidden taxes are so well hidden that most Canadians don’t realize they are paying them. For instance, if you smoke a packet of cigaréttes a doy, you are’ paying. $62.05, in tax to the federal govern- ment — or 17c: on each package. On a $350 electric range, the excise tax is $70,’ The sales tax is another $17. This means that” when you pay $350 for a stove, almost $90 is in * . tax — a tax most Canadians -don’t know exists. 2 1, Goods could ‘be sold,- and should-.be sold, with ; a price tag that: shows clearly ‘the actual cost of the product, and the amount of tax. The sales tax alone on a pound of coffee or tea is 6c; a. pair of $15 .shoes- carries 95c tax;.a $15 dress, 97¢ and a $500 chesterfield costs the buyer $20 in ‘sales tax.
