TAXES CUT IN CANADA
 ANNOUNCED

OTTAWA, March 23.-P- The Canadian government has moved to cut taxes sharply and provide more consumer goods for the peo- pie.
 A 32-per cent reduction in income taxes and liberalized exemptions striking the names of 750,000 in- come taxpayers from the rolls are features of the program.
 It also calls for a cut in taxes on earnings of small business firms; repeal or reduction of a variety of other levies; removal of price con- trol of many commodities; and re- taxation of import restrictions on long list of commodities.
 Announcing the program, Finance Minister Douglas c. Abbott told parliament that at least another year of almost unexcelled prosper ity" lies ahead of Canada. He said the danger of imitation seems to have been passed, and prices have begun to recede to more healthy levels"
 Swift approval of the program is expected. Prime Minister Louis st. Laurent's National Liberal par ty has a majority in parliament and he is prepared to take the tax cut issue to the people in general election.
 The program would Top $270,000,- O00-about 32 per cent of last years tax revenues-from the national in- come. Abbott estimated.
 He said the government can still wind up the fiscal year l949-50 with budgetary surplus of S87,000,- GOO after expenditures of $2,390,OO0,- 900 despite the tax cuts. This is possible, the Finance Minister ex- plained, because of the countrys prosperous condition and the $574,- 100000 budget surplus piled up in the current year ending March 31.

Mining Laborer
Literally a
"PrisOner"

NEW YORK (ANP)- The
sapartheid" (segregation) policy
of the South African Nationalist
government under Premier Malan
is a very efficient and all encom-
passing thing. It goes so far as to
make prisoners of the native popu-
lation.
Particularly is this outstanding
in the farm and gold mining in
dustry. Native migrant workers
are recruited" and r Immediate
~ tossed into what might be term
ed "a jailhouse existence"
The moment an African miner
puts his signature or thumb print
to a contract of employment, he
is virtually a prisoner Of the in
dustry. The 100000 employees Of
the gold mining industry are pri-
soners in the same legal sense that
they are sent to Jail for nine
months or a year.
The prisoner cannot say he is
tired of prison and prison food,
neither can the African miner.
The moment he signed the con-
tract, he is compelled to live in a
compound. If he goes out on a
weekend, he can only do so with
the permission Of the compound
manager, who is acting for the
gold mining industry.

BY r. Luther Zuber, Md,
The conversation Of teen-agers
is always interesting. I passed a
group Of them onthe street re-
Gently and heard n young man
tell a companion that, for some
reason or other, his friend was
going to be "as popular as a cold
in the head"
AS | walked on, I reflected that,
joking or not, the smile was an
apt one. For I can think of few
things less popular than a cold,
both with the sufferer and those
about him.
The victim of &C old is miser-
able, with his running nose and
eyes, and occasional coughing and
sneezing. His capacity for work
and general enjoyment of life are
weakened. His food doesn't taste
the same and he might even lose
some, sleep because of his cold.
His friends and associates, and
even his family, avoid him be-
cause they know a cold is catch
ing. They have no intention of
looking and feeling as miserable
as he, eventhough they might mis-
takingly believe that a cold is a
passing annoyance, rather than an
illness.
But a cold actually is an i'll
ness and should be treated as one.
A cold is an infection which
weakens the body's resistance and,
If neglected or ignored, can lead
, to serious complications. Colds
which are not checked or properly
cared for can make the body vul-

They were born May II to
Mrs. John Jones, 38, who is
mother of nine other children.
Doctors say it was a miracle"
she had been able to carry the
infants in pregnancy.
Their heads are attached to the
crown, thus causing their feet to
point in opposite directions. When
one child lies on her back, the
other lies partly on her side.
The medical director at General
said that no attempt will be made
sin the near future" to separate
the twins. They are too young to
undergo thorough examination to
learn if they can be separated.
He said if the brains are join
ed or if theinfants are other wise
vitality joined, successful surgery
would be improbable. Parts of the
skulls would have to be replaced
with surgical plates.
Similar twins born in Indiana

26 days. Death also came after

copied them.
Only II colleges refuse Orient
ais, two white and nine Negro;
but no junior college, school of
theology, nor university refused
them. None of the schools reject
ted Jewish Students, but some
maintain a "balanced" enrolment.
Schools accepting Negroes Stu
dents are located in the North. 1t
will be very difficult, the survey
said, to have colored students ad-
mitted to schools in states with a
discriminatory policy. 1t related:
"Where state laws prohibit equal
rights it seems easy for the schools
to state clearly their policies, but
in many other cases is seems that
there is a desire to keep actual
policies hidden when the school
itself must be responsible for the
discrimination. Many southern
schools expressed regret at the
law; a few are at the point of
doing something about it,"

Methodist Youth
To Seek End of
Bias in Church

GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. (ANP)
Methodist youth leaders last week
quietly planned a campaign to
end segregation in church spon-
sored schools after revieweing a
survey which revealed that about
half of the Methodist schools in
the country Disseminated against
Negroes.
This program will be carried
out with very little publicity, a
spokesman for the group said. The
decision was made in connection
with the 1949 meeting of the Met
hodist Conference on Education.
The survey causing the action
revealed the following facts:
Of IS Methodist colleges, only
81 accepted Negroes students! of
seven junior colleges, three ac-
copied them, Of four theological
schools, one admitted Negroes and
Of II universities, only three ac-
