Tory Leader Charges
'rompIacency' Shown
In New Labor BUDGET
Hy the Associated Press.

LONDON, Oct. PA Conserva-
tive party spokesman accused Bri-
tain's Labor government today of
showing too great complacency" in
its new financial program and said
the failure to make greater cuts in
wartime expenditures was stagger-
ing.
The statement came from Sir John
Anderson, former Chancellor of the
Exchequer, as Commons resumed
debate on the governments tax pro-
gram. The program effective next
April, provides for reduced levies
on the incomes of small wage earn
erS, a hike in surtaXes on large in
comes and a 40 per cent cut in the
excess profits tax to. be paid by
industries.
Sir John chided Chancellor of the
Exchequer Hugh Dalton for promis-
ing with qualifications" to keep
prices stable. Success in that policy,
Sir John continued, "is entirely de-
pendent upon wages being kept at
reasonable levels"
Although Mr.. Dalton expressed
uncertainty yesterday over the out
come of current British
talks in Washington on financial aid
for Britain, Sir John expressed the
greatest confidence in the compe-
tence of our negotiators."
Conservative as we'll as Labor
newspapers welcomed Mr.. Dalton S
tax program.
The Times declared the Labor
governments budget, presented to
the House of Commons yesterday,
was rather well in line with the
Churchill coalition cabinets white
paper on employment policy.
The Conservative Daily Mail de-
clared the budget should prove "a
tonic for trade"
Debate on the budget is scheduled
TO beginsin the House of Commons
today.
