LADY HOUSTON DONATES £40,000 TOWARD DEFENCE
-By Telegraph — Copyright)
LONDON, Friday. Lady Houston has written the Chancellor of the Exchequer, Mr. Neville Chamberlain, stating: "Your refusal of £200,000 which I offered to lessen the shameful cut in Britain's defences has decided me to send a smaller sum of £40,000, which is the amount of the income tax due by me if I was domiciled in England instead of in Jersey. I hope you will not he too proud to accept it."
