FREE GIFTS TO UNEMPLOYED.
"Trader's" protest in tlie "Star" does not go far enough. I maintain that the emergency tax imposed on the smaller shopkeepers and tradespeople has in many instances been the cause of many small shops closing up. The relief worker is exempt from the emergency tax. So why shoiftd a small business man be compelled to pay it? There should be some limit to the amount a man may earn before ta*xing his earnings. I know for a fact that a lot of small business people are worse off than the relief) workers, and we can get no help at all ANOTHER SMALL TRADER.
