Just the same, though this taxation
too, is at a much higher rate than it

Many ways of reaching these ex-

one adopted appealed to us because
Of it's simplicity. We had the means
in existence for ascertaining what
the profits had been in the years i'm
mediately preceding the war and
computed the difference after the
war began. Our income tax records
and machinery removed many of the
difficulties. Practically the only
concerns whose profits could not be
ascertained readily are concerns do
ing too small business to come with

THE man who could not accept it
would be pretty patriot" said the
official quoted. fortunately for the
credit of the British people such
poor patriots are rare.
There has been the suggestion
that all war profits should be con-
ffscated. We believe there is hard
~ room for doubt that this would
discourage industry to a point that
would mean serious injury to our
national life.
America has been doing such
splendid things in a financial way
