Forty-three thousand eight hundred and two persons in the United Kingdom were assessed for super-tax in 1918-19. One hundred and six enjoyed incomes of more than £IOO,OO0 —19 fewer than in the year prior, but three more than in 1917. Tho total number of super-tax incomes had increased in tho year by 9402, but this was accounted for almost entirely by the lowering of the assessable limit from £3OOO to £2500. There were 24,713 incomes under £SOOO on which supertax was paid, as compared with 16,707 in 1918. The total wealth assessed showed continuous progress. The figures are: 101(5-17, £261,939.179; 1917-18, £292,673,237; 1918-19, £333,482.427.
