ENGLISHMEN FEAR FURTHER
INCREASE IN INCOME TAX.

London, March 2S-CCopyright, l904.)-
Many persons are awaiting with nervous
apprehension the presentation of the bud
get in the House of Commons when 1t re-
assemblies after the Easter vacation. for
it is anticipated there may be an increase
of the income tax, which already stands
higher than ever 1t has done in time of
peace.
How much the increase will be Is only
conjecture, but in some quarters it is sug-
gested that it will be at least 2 pence,
bringing up the rate 1 shilling and l
penny.
This Idea is reflected at Lloyds. in which
no less than % g~uineas per cent is charged
on insurance against an increase in the
income tax. This is the highest rate made
in any previous year.
