The policy of the Government aims at curbing both individual and national extravagance. The increase in income tax, the cuts in civil service and the pay exemption reduction will deprive thousands of people of the money which they now spend on harmless luxuries and small amonitics. - The higher senle of Amusement Tax and petrol duty will bave the same effect, and, no doubt, corresponding economies will be enforced upon wealthy people by the additions to the super-tax.
