‘Tory leader Joe Clark has
come up with a ‘tax incentive
scheme aimed at getting
Canadians “to take their
money out of their socks and
put it into Canadian stocks.”

The plan, which Clark
outlined at a Conservative
fund raising dinner at $125 a
plate in Vancouver Thur-
sday, calls for a tax exemp-

tion for Canadians who
invest their money in
Canadian companies. In
effect, it would eliminate the
capital gains tax on profits
from stocks sold.

Clark also told’ his

audience. that as a further
stimulation, to the Canadian
economy, it is the Con-
servative party's intention to
tefcrm tax laws which would ~

It is estimated that more
than 300,000 guns have
fallen into the hands of
radical gangs and they pose a
threat to the peace and
security of the country.

-Especially vulnerable are
the 7,000 United States
citizens and approximately
9,000 Britons still in Iran.

Plans are being readied by
both U.S. and British
military to airlift these
nationals from the strife torn
country this weekend. Most
of the Canadians had been
airlifted out several weeks

Their situation worsened
as a result of the recent
attack on the United States

embassy in Tehran and the

capture- of the U.S. am-

staff by radicals. However,
they were rescued by Iranian
government forces after a
