OTTAWA, March 31
r :Five ’ per.A'cent tax on the interest payable on Canadian ; bohds by nonresidents of Canada, as proposed in the Budget, will diet apply to any bond, public or private, oil which the interest ii payable in currency, other than Canadian, stated Mr Rhodes, Minister of Finance, in the House to clear up the" misunderstandings that had arisen over the operation of this tax, which had resulted?gin dealings in Canadian Bonds and certain securities being suspended mi the London Stock Exchange.
Mr Rhodes said that the exemption was granted because, while there wa’s 110 doubt about the power of Parliament to impose such a tax as was done in the ease of other countries, nevertheless misunderstanding might arise in the minds of non-resident investors, who purchased Dominion securities in their own country and which were payable in theii-vCWn currency.
