The War Budget. The country has withstood the shook of the greatest war in his fory expeeding well and, already, Todowing the dislocation of bas iness inseparable from quch in ternational complications, there is an ipproved tone and greater con- fidence than ever in the com- mercial and financial outlook; Production, iny veriqua lines has been quickened, and wages: |bavo" improved, and This has the cffect of counteracting cther adverse conditions. Another favourable sign of the times is an increarod confidence on the cart of investore and this feature of the country's life has not been" overlooked in the framing of the Badget, which is devised for the purpose of accomplishing for pre- sent and future generations that which is infinitely more precious" than mátorial undertakinge name- ly the preservation of national and individual liberty.

President Yuan and Hongkong University.
Though still in its infaroy, the University already has upwards of two hundred students. It is exceedingly well staffed and equipped, is doing excellent work, and undoubtedly offers to the Chinese, at their own doors BO to speak, educational advantages. fally equal to those offered by similar Universitios abroad, and. st very much smaller cost.

There is, as was foretold, very radical changes with regard to the Income Tax. A forty per cant, increase in the rate per poand is announced and the scope of the tax will hereafter affect incomes of £130 instead of £160, which heretofore has been the exemption limit. A coheme by which payment may be made by instalments is mentioned, doubt- | less referring to the payers on the smaller incomes. The daty on sugar, tes, tobacco, cacos, coffee, and chicory is increased and suob imported luxuries sa motor cars films, clocks and musical instro- ments will benosforth have to pay an ad valorem duty amounting 33 per cent. This may bercokoned As a mild triumph for the Tarift Reformers," Against these propo, sala there is not likely to be much; if any, cavilling.
