House Egillildered By Magnitude Of Expenditures

Increased Taxe-s-O-n Incomes, Tea And Oils To Meet Country’s

Vast Rearmament Program.

By GEORGE HAMBLETON

Canadian Press Staff Writer LONDON, April 26—(CP Cable)—Sir John Simon, Chancellor of the Exchequer, struck heavily today at the pocket-book. ' The astronomical ﬁgures of his ﬁrst budget

left the House of Commons almost bewildered with the magnitude of the coming expenditures.

The Chuncellofs increase of sixpence in the standard rate of income tax and his addition of two pence in the duty on tea, both Empire and foreign, sent a gasp around: the Chamber. They will hit every home in the land.

In his closing words Sir John appealed to the dogged determination and dauntless courage of the British race in bearing the new burden. The Government benches cheered. Labor, which had loudly applauded the tighter law on wealthy tax dodgers, equally loudly ‘protested against the increased tax on tea.

Increased Expenditure

Between esttnlated expenditure and estimated reven/ue for the ﬂs- cal year 1938-39 Sir John had a zap of approximately 230000000

The House expected he would By PA! 088i meet this estimated deﬁcit largely by further borrowing. Sir John rejected this “easy way." He warm- ed the House that s iementary estimates for a substan t still were to be broiilht down. These would be met out of bor- rowed money. The present zap of $0,000,000 he proposed to raise from new taxation.

His proposals were:-
