wa'eiway from the head of the lakes to the St LcWKncc is headed toward early opening and one of the busiest seasons in years as total war bring record demand for the tools to finish the job Wheat from bulging elevators Iron ore from the head of the lakes coal and miscellaneous cargo await tiansit to ports along the 1200-mile waterway a survey by the Canadian Press showed Men and ships are ready Navigation out of some ports has opened while elsewhere the clank of winches and smo' around the waterfront tells the story of preparations Most shipping men expect the big movement will be underway by April 15 the date when marine insurance takes effect Ordinarily heavy freighters don't start until then but wartime demands and unusually mild weather may induce them to take the risk The season opened at Goderich March 21 when Capt Earl Jenkins brought the Imperial Oil Tanker Acadialite into port Lake Ontario navigation started Monday whan the coal carrier Coalfax cleared Port Dalhousie for Oswego NY to pick up coal for Toronto Whether enough men are available for the mighty shipping task is a matter of some doubt in various ports The Canadian Seamen's Union in Toronto however reported

on February 18 when Premier Hepburn admitted he could not proceed with his budget until an agreement had been reached with federal authorities on the tax matter "Made a Deal" Last Thursday Premier Hepburn announced the two governments had made a deal the legislature would reconvene March 24 and validating legislation would be pushed through as speedily as possible so that the province would obtain a certain portion of the subsidies before the end of the fiscal year March 31 Some $3000000 is at present in the federal treasury which will be paid over immediately the agreement is validated by the legislature This amount is part of the $28964-039 which the dominion has undertaken to pay the province annually in return for acquiring sole taxing rights on income and corporations The figure constitutes the revenue realized by the province from these sources for the year ending March 31 1941 Under the arrangement Ontario is also guaranteed the same revenue which accrued from the gasoline tax in that year In 1941 the net revenue from this tax was $26-608290 and should this year's receipts drop below this figure as a result of rationing the federal government undertakes to make up the
