Prime Minister Churchill post- gémed-until such time as it may in the public interebt~a sched- uled extensive statement on the affair before Parliament. The Press Association earlier had substantially agreed with the Ger- man story that H155 had set a. beeiine for the Scottish castle of the 38-year-old Duke of ilumilton in the notion that the Duke might somehow help him bring about an end of the war, but today quarters declined to confirm the Associat- ion's account. To the House Mr. Churchill ex- plained the 48-hour delay in an- nouncing Hess‘ arrival in Britain by saying that his identity had to be established beyond question and pointing out that it was, after all, a rather incredible business. Asked by a Scotlish member whether German intelligence had been trying to create the impres- sion that Scotlulid-ivlicre Hess landed—was “ready to make a separate peace with Germany," the Prime luinister , recurred:- “Whabever delusions may exist, that is not among them." There was some indication of a divergence of opinion as to how Hess should be treated.

H announcement drew ap iause from the House. gipos tion to the increased nu- vic defence tax rates was initiat- ed bv Conservative House leader Hanson, who d it was too much of a burden on the low-sal- ary classes. But Mr. Ilsley argued it was more fair than a sales tax increase which bore upon all whether they had a taxable income or not, and it meant an additional $80,000,000 revenue which must. be obtained somewhere. Several sections of one income tax resolution were allowed to stand over pending further stud of cer- tain questions by the mtnlster. but some progress was made. Mr. Hanson asked the minister L! he would consider the salary minimum below which. the defence tax is not imposed. Mr. Iisley said the government had already given the question eat consideration. It was impossib get all the revenue needed from the higher brackets. “If the answer is in the negative 1 have nothing more to say.’ Mr Hanson said. When the item was first called Mr. Hanson book the floor at once and said: "I tell the minister ri ht now that I am going to oppose t s provision for an increase. "It is not; fair to those in the lower income brackets. The national defence tax is being raised now more than double and in addition to that you have taken from the wage earner. voluntarily i1 you will though in many cases questionabiy, substantial contributions to the war savin s fund. "O15 top of that. there is the in- crease in the coat of living which people who are in receipt of wages and salaries have to pay. "Many of the people who now are in receipt of wages or low-rate sai- arles are people who. for a long time. have had no steady Jobs. “I suggest that the tax attaches to people who, for the first time in a long period of years, are in receipt of a living wage and of an assured lncorrle." Mr_ leader if he would suggest a higher tax on medium incomes but Mr Hanson retorted that he was not under cross-examination. e minister said. the national de- fence tax applies to all who receive incomes. large or small. It had been increased only after careful consid- eration and as a better choice than increase the sales .
