Suggests Taxation For Patriotic Purposes
[Per Press Association. —Copyright] Wellington, This Day. Representatives of 11 provincial patriolci councils are to meet the National Patriotic Council and the National Patriotic Fund Board in conference in Wellington on November 20. The main matter for consideration will be the board's financial requirements for the year ending September 30, 1942. Remits on the agenda paper include: Finance, the next appeal for funds, patriotic regulations, overseas remittances, rehabilitation of members of the N.Z. Forces; mufti allowance to men returning to civil life, and supplementary grants and pensions. The question of raising patriotic funds by taxation instead of by appeals to the public is again to come before the conference. The proposal is that the Social Security Tax be increased by’ 3d in the £ for 12 months, and that the money so collected be handed over by’ the Commissioner for Taxes to Ihe National Patriotic Fund Board and provincial patriotic councils. This suggestion comes from Taranaki.
