This year the amount raised by taxation would amount to £570,000,000, ed that the Government had in- creased the fatal smount by sbout £400,000,000.. Nearly the whole of that increase came from direct taxation. In financing the war the Government, and thoes TC- sponsible for advising the Govern ment, bad tried to get the largest amount ont of taxation compatible with mainisicing the financial security of the country. There came a limit in increasing taxation“ when they might give up all hope of raising money by loan.

The measure before the Eouse was to enable the Government to meet debts that had been incurred.
