TAXES CRIPPLING
AUSTRALIAN COMPLAINT PROGRESS RETARDED (9 a.m.) BRISBANE. Dec. 10. “Australia could not become a great Power in the post-war era while the Federal Government continued to impose crippling taxation and give way to industrial outlaws,” said the Country Party leader, Mr. A. W. Fadden, at the annual conference of the Queensland branch of the Australian Country Party. Mr. Fadden said that instead of adopting a policy to give incentive to greater production, the Government was following a course which financially. industrially and socially must ultimately lead to disaster. Mr. Fadden also complained that bureaucrats were attempting to carry forward into the nost-war era the authority vested them during the war authority vested in them during the war to do so to retain comfortable jobs to which they gravitated daring the last few years of the war.
