Canadians Hail Move
For Average D Pei.
Cut in Income Taxes
BY the Assoeiuted Press

OTTAWA, April 30.-MoSt Ca
nadians greeted with enthu-
siasm today news that the pro-
jected 1918. Federal budget
will trim their income taxes an
average of 90 per cent, but ex-
pressed disappointment that
sales and luxury taxes will re-
main unchanged.
Some labor officials were critical
of the fact that the new budget
which calls for expenditure of ST.
0o2, ,000. 900 in the new fiscal year
proposes removal of the excess
profits tax and maintained that If
that levy could be removed lower
bracket income taxes should have
been eliminated entirely.
Galleries of the House of Com
mons were jammed last night when
Finance Minister D. C. Abbott pre-
sented the budget and members on
the liberal (government) side ap-
plauded the announcement of the
Federal income tax reductions by
banging loudly on their desk tops.
Surplus to Apply on Debt.
The Finance Minister said the
surplus, first, since 1890, compared
with a deflc't of $2,123 ,043 900 in
1856 and would be applied against
Canada's s13,0oo.0 100000 debt. He
said the surplus reflected the fact
that the Dominion is enjoying a
degree of prosperity never exceeded
in living memory
Opposition leaders were quick to
point out that Canada's sales tax
OF 8 per cent still applies to all but
such basic commodities as food ano
farm implements as do the luxury
taxes, ranging up to Is per cent, on
tobacco and liquor.
The budget, which is expected tc
win approval without serious diff.
Guilty, would leave income taa
exemptions at $3.50 for a single mar
and $500 for a married man. Ex.
emptions IN the United States are
$500 for a single man and $1,000
for married man.
Cut 81 Per cent in Lower Brackets.
The new tax schedule ranges
from 10 per cent in the lowest
taxable brackets to 30 per cent for
persons earning in excess of $3.50, 900
year.
Mr.. Abbott said nine out of 10
Canadians would find their income
taxes lowered an average of 20 per
cent under the new budget, with
cuts totaling as much as 81 per cent
in the bottom brackets. down to 6
or 7 per cent in the highest incomes.
The Finance Minister said the Is
per cent excess profits tax would
be eliminated December 81, 1947,
but that the 80 per cent corpora
tion income tax would be retained.
