REMOVAL HOPED FOR
Sales Tax “Burdensome, Irksome, Costly” COMMERCIAL VIEW Hopes for the early removal of the eale® tax are expressed in the annual report of the Wellington Chamber of Commerce. “Strong representations were made for the abolition as soon as possible of the sales tax, which has proved so bordensome and irksome and costly in working to the trading community,” says the report. “The tax was originally imposed ae an emergency measure, but the original estimate of an annual yield of £1,609,000 has been greatly exceeded,'and with steadily reviving Government revenues it is hoped that abolition will have early attention from the Government, and the heavy impost on living costs removed.”
