Lloyd Georges New Tax Raid.

In his sixth annual budget Mr..
LLOYD GEORGE. the Chancellor Of the
ExcheQuer, has provided Great Britain
with n sensation. but, 1t appears not
exactly the one which was expected.
That there would be a raid on taxable
values was foregone conclusion. but
1t was expected that the object of at
tack would be the landed interests. IN
stead the existing imposts. the income
tax and death duties, are lacked up"
Land taxation is postponed. That it
Is not abandoned is shown by the
scheme of national valuation foreshad-
owed in the budget statement.
Thus the British taXpaying classes

ing an unexpected blow but they do
not even yet know the worst. They
