‘Queer’ People’s Thoughts on Texation
Should Not be Dismissed Very Lightly

The national leader of the Social

Credit party, Robert Th says that
the government is now taking 40 cents of
every dollar. earned by Canadians. He
also asserts that Canada will disintigrate
as a nation if taxation continues to in-
crease at its present rate.

Canadians who might be inclined to
write off these statements as Social Cre-
dit “funny money” policies would be wise
to examine them more deeply. High tax-
ation and high costs are the paving stones
for the road’ to Socialism. This can be
proved from the’ record of history, .. and
the propaganda line of ‘Socialists which
emphasizes that workers are. not getting
their fair share of earned. income and
benefits.

The wage-earner who sees half of his
pay drained away in taxation becomes a
most discontented individual. It is at this
point that disinitgration sets in as the
wage-earner realizes that for nearly half
of his time he is “working for the gov-
ernment.”

It is unwise to assume that all Soci-

Pili Consumption is

As We Mesmerize Ourselves With Them

A news dispatch from Denmark
states that at a medical ward in a hospital
at Copenhagen more patients were admit-
ted through misuse of medicine than from
any other cause except heart disease.
Danish doctors have reported cases of
patients who walk in “a constant daze of
intoxication, caused by munching a mix-
ture of all types of headache pills, seda-
tives and sleeping tablets.”

We are not sure whether North A-
mericans have reached this stage, but
they have a world-wide reputation for an
addiction to pills.

It is part of our fast moving society.
A business man who finds he is under
heavy pressure seeks relief from nerves
with a mouthful of pills. If he feels run-
down in the morning he stuffs himself
with energy tablets to get through’ the
day,-Then-he tries to unwind at night by
taking tranquilizers.

the spectacle of a government commis-

Surely it is. entirely out of context to set
up tribunals to make the great decision
on blameless lives that have just begun.
. Men and women in our western: demo-
cracy have demonstrated beyond all doubt
that they put humanity before efficiency,
that they do not seek to live in precise, an-
tiseptic social surgery in which all but
the perfect are amputated and thrown

a Dangerous ‘Habit

* What this mixture and counter-mix-
ture of pills does to a person’s system is
hard to tell, but it isn’t natural.

There is a proper use for pills or they
would never be allowed on ‘the market.
In modest numbers pills ‘can relieve pain,
act as a stimulus, induce relaxation, etc.
They can be of wonderful assistance.

The trouble is we try to become. our
own doctor, to diagnose: our own condi-
tion, and to prescribe our own treatment
in the form of self-administered pills. _

A danger exists if pill consumption
becomes a habit, and a person has mes-
merized himself into believing that he
can’t move without a pep pill or sleep
without a sedative.
