The Lloyd Georqe Budqet.

England is very much upset over a
tax bill which IS pending because the
bill provides for the taxation of land
according TO the just value thereof
Heretofore the landed proprietors have
escaped Il direct tax upon the land
quite effectua.ly The House of Lords
mas been their bulwark of strength
whenever anyone so rash as to suggest
taking the gentry has succeeded in
gaining seat iE the House Of Com.
mons. Nothing in the shape CT effec-
tual land taxation ever lived through
a season in the frigid atmosphere of
the upper branch.
The howl of disapprOval which filled
the air when the Lloyd-George budget
was first sighted was such as to make
from the throats of men accustomed
to nothing more boiste rous than a dull
monotone. In response to this wall of
anguish the bill was so amended that
instead of the gentry paying the ex.
pense of finding out what the land is
worth, the nation as whole will pay
the bill. 1t is considered quite a VIC
tory
The bill as it now stands does not
tax lands under tillage or land which
can be construed to be used for a pub
lie purpose. Rather it aims to reach
the men who are holding land for an
increase in values without making anv
improvements thereon. AS Premier
Asquith puts it, the tax is upon added
future value, realized or realizah,-
that is given to land by social causes. "
meaning by the growth of cities. in
dustries and transportation facilities.
1t is well planned and splendidly d.
dected campaign to take part of the
burden from the middle classes and put
it where it should have been put years
ago.
