DOUBLE INCOME TAX.
SIR J. G. WARD'S PROTEST. Press Association—By Telegraph—Copyright, Australian and N.Z. Cable Association. LONDON, April 26. (Received April 27, at 10.15 a,m.) A large and influential meeting, under the auspices of the Imperial Mission, held at the Cannon Street Hotel, resolved on urging the Government to give immediate relief in the matter of the double income tax. Sir Joseph Ward referred to the possibility, after the war, of foreigners paying only one tax and competing -with the British, paying two and possibly three taxes. The fatter ought not to_ be thus handicapped. A British' citizen, in whatever part of the ■Empire, should be a unit, and not made into two persons for the purposes of taxation.
