The figures were: New Zealand, 18.3 per cent.; Great Britain. 25.2 per cent.; France, 26.3 per cent.; Sweden. 18.9 per cent.; Denmark. 20.1- per cent, "'The increased national income in New Zealand hns resulted in the percentage of taxation actually being lower than it was under the depression Government."
