Homeowners and Tenants

YOUR TAXES
CAN BE

CUT BY NEARLY $40

ONE way is by convincing City Council to find NEW
sources of revenue. The following method would
SAVE residential property taxpayers nearly $40.
APPLY THE GENERAL PURPOSE MILL RATE
TO THE MACHINERY ASSESSMENT (now ma-
chinery is taxed only for schools.)

Machinery Assessment (1962) .. ... $92,049,000
Taxable Assessment (75'/) ---._ —.. 69,036,752
Taxes yale mills: | ok 2,761,470
Each residence (approx. 71,000) saves $ 38.89

Join in the effort to keep taxes dwn by clipping and
mailing the following to Mrs. Effie Jones, President,
Civic Reform Association, 5038 -Sherbrooke St.,
Vancouver 15.

I hereby protest to City Council the annual increase
in residential property tax and urge you to tax
machinery for general purposes, aS a means of
raising money for the city and at the same time
decreasing the load on homeowners and tenants.

Jackson to speak at
city May Day Rally

The Vancouver May Day Committee has announced

that the featured speaker at this year’s May Day Rally
will be C. S. Jackson, Canadian President of the United

Electrical Workers Union.

Jackson has for many
years given consistent and
militant leadership to _ his
union and to the entire Cana-
dian working class.

The committee has stated
that May Day this year must
be a huge demonstration of
labor against attacks on liv-
ing standards and trade union
rights, to prevent destruction
of the human race by nuclear
war and to extend the fight
of the employed and unem-
ployed to take advantage of
the machine age for a shorter

- work week.

Form new Cuba Aid Committee

A Canada-Cuba Friendship
Committee was established in
Toronto on March 27 “to
work for the development of
friendship and understanding
between the peoples of Can-
ada and Cuba’”’.

A statement of purpose de-
clared that friendship  be-
tween the two countries
would enable Canadians “to
accept the expressions of
goodwill toward our country
offered by the Cuban people
and their government, espe-
cially through their Institute
of Friendship with the peo-
ples of the world (ICAP).”

Among the activities the
committee will undertake
will be encouragement of
closer direct contact between
Canada and Cuba through the
exchange of delegations of
trade unionists, students, farm

“It’s very nice, but since we’re
the only ones in the neighborhood
with one, don’t you think it should
have a revolving turret on top?”

- provide factual

organizations, professional
groups, writers, artists and
sports groups,. as well as
through the development of
more travel by private citi-
bens as individuals.

The committee will also
information
about Cuba and will work to
enhance the possibilities of
mutually beneficial trade. ~

In addition, the committee
will work toward practical
expressions of support t0
Cuba and will assist and c0-
operate in the efforts of other
Canadians who wish to ret
der moral and material assis
tance to the Cuban people.

Further information abou
the plans of this non-partisan”
committee may be obtained
by writing to its chairman
Rolando Nunez, ait 32 March
mount Rd., Toronto, Ont.
