FINANCES ANALYSED
■0 Rise in Incoine Tax May Not be Neeessary (Eeeeived 6, 2.5 p.m.) • LONDON", March 5. With the issue of the Air Estimates all the main estimates are now known. An analysis of finances reveals that, ^ taking into aecount the £80,000,000 wL which the Government is Taising for defences by loan, the net flgure required from extra taxation is only £16,474,000, consequently an increase of slightly over 3d in the pound will meet this amount, However, continued prosperity, trade improvement and increased surtax from the last Budget are exa. pected to account for appr.oximately £16,000,000, consequently there is every possibility that the iaeome tax will not ^ be increased.
