Wednesday May 29, Ron Chalmer's "Money Matters" column on the front page
of the business section of the Edmonton Journal.

"Tall tax tale isn't kosher"

Kosher Question: Can I claim a $300 kosher tax deduction for buying Saran
Wrap, Mr. Clean, Sanka and other products that have been blessed by rabbis
and identified by secret symbols?

Answer: No. This old and vicious rumour is based on anti-Semitic scapegoating
that tries to b;ame Jews for highr prices - to pay the rabbis - then claims
Jews are the only ones who know the secret symbols and claim the kosher
deduction. It's all false.

End of quote.
