TAXATION IN NEW ZEALAND
MR COLIN CLARK’S OPINIONS A REPLY TO “THE PRESS” In a special message to “The Press,” Mr Colin Clark, the noted British economist, who was recently interviewed by our parliamentary correspondent on the subject of taxation in New Zealand, replies briefly to questions raised by “The Press” in an editorial article of which the views expressed in the interview were the subject.
Mr Clark says: “Thg income figures were compiled on a basis strictly uniform with that used in other countries. I have been working throughout in collaboration with Mr F. B. Stephens, of the London School of Economics. His previous estimates of farming income, based on voluntary returns of income in the 1926 census, are demonstrably too low. The Government Statistician’s figures only refer to a limited field. My figures do not include indirect taxation.”
