FOR NATIONAL SAFETY
£160,000 FROM LADY HOUSTON LETTER TO CHANCELLOR (United Press Association--By Electric Telegraph -Copyright) LONDON, 14th April. Lady Houston has written to Mr Neville Chamberlain offering a cheque for £200,000 instead of a cheque for £40,000 due as income tax. She proposes that the extra amount go towards the cost of adequate army, navy, and air forces which Lady Houston considers requires an additional £5,000,000 in the coming Budget. Lady Houston adds that if nineteen others do the same the paltry sum required to ensure national safety will be found.
