TAXATION BURDEN
HEAVY IN NEW ZEALAND. THE PROSPECT OF PRODUCES. MAINTAINING PROSPERITY. (United Press Association—Copyright.) (Received This Day, 1.40 p.m.) LONIDON, November 18. The Hon. Edmund Parker (chairman of Directors) at the annual meeting of Dalgety and Co., Ltd., said that with a further period of settled Government ahead and given good seasons there was no reason why the present proSPperous times should not be maintained. It was true that the price of wool had fallen sharply and that the market was unstable, but the prices to-day were still remunerative.
Taxation in New Zealand and Australia was a very heavy burden with little prospect of relief. In fact, New Zealand bids fair to become one of the most heavily taxed countries in the world.
