REVENUE RETURNS
WE1.,1. MAINTAINED IN BRITAIN. (British Official Wireless.) RUGBY, February 7. So largo was the response to the request of the Chancellor of the Exchequer for early payment of taxes that there is now a slackening of the rate at which revenue is coming in. Nevertheless, last week total ordinary revenue amounted to £47.759.985 and total expenditure. £32,882,932. compared with £46.799,409 and £18.009.847 respectively in 1939. Income tax realised £34,763,000 as against £32,590.000. In the eight remaining weeks £211,028,821 has to be collected so that the weekly average can fall considerably before there is danger of the estimates not being realised.
