INLAND REVENUE PAYMENT EVADED
BRITAIN TAKES MEASURES By Cable.—Press Association.—Copyright LONDON, Monday. A lengthy debate took place to-day in the House of Commons on the clauses in the Finance Bill which concern the so-called inquisitorial powers it is proposed to grant to the Inland Revenue Department to deal with cases of supposed evasion of payments through the operation of the law relating to private companies. A number of Conservative members, including Sir Robert Horne, were highly critical of the clauses. Finally the Chanceller of the Exchequer, Mr. Churchill, promised to make concessions. Thereupon the objectors withdrew amendments they had moved. In justifying the clauses Mr. Churchill was emphatic that he would not allow the revenue to be defrauded by men who had full control of companies and placed excessive amounts to their reserve. —A. and^N.Z.
