A CORRECTION.
TO THE KI>ITOIi. OF THE NEW ZEALAND TIMES. Silt,—lu my speech on Friday evening last in reforring to an income-tax, I stated that such tax should only atfect incomes from £l5O to £'2oo a year. This expression no doubt failed to catch the ear ot your reporter, whose verbatim report of my speeon is generally spanking very accurate. Mv meaning, I think, is obvious, that a,sum from £l5O to £2OO a year should be fixed, as the limit of exemption from iucornota. My opinion has always been that the sum required to purchase fully all the necessaries of life—whether that sum constituted the whole, or part of, an income—should be free from any income-tax.—l am, &c, W. GI3DORNE. Wellington, December 4.
