THE INCOME TAX—ST. ANDREW', HOLBORN, AND ST.
GEORGE-THE-MARTYR Last night a meeting of inhabf.
t tants of these united parishes was held at the Workhouse,
t Little Gray's-in-lane, to consider the steps to be takell
, "to obtain a remission of the oppressive burden of the
income tax as it at present exists." Mr. J. S. S. 11°P.
wood was in the chair ; and the meeting was addressed bY
Messrs. Lindner, Elliot, Bable, Lloyd, \V. Elliott, 11°b-
son, and Jones. A resolution was passed unaoiraousli
" that the income tax of ls. 4d. in the pound operates op:
pressively ou tradesmen, professional men,
limited income, being a charge of the same amount upon
those classes (many of whom are struggling 021%P°
themselves and families) as upon those who "9 - ac;
quired real and permanent property ; besides which, got
and
'node of assessment is unjust and inquisitorial,
and persona of
unfrequently leads to compelling those assessed to PAT
more for the tax than a fair estimate upon their incom,
The second resolution was also
unanimously a,doptoa,
" That the pledge of the Government to reduce the
property and income tax after the close of the war
should be carried out in the full integrity of the Pero7
raise, and that such reduction should take place frben:
and after the sth April next." A committee was
.. _
appointed to arrange for a public meeting on tio'
subject; . .
