POLITICAL NOTES
TALK ON THE BUDGET. V * ~ BV TELEGRAPH OWN CORRESPONDENT. WELLINGTON, Sept. 4. The proceedings of the past. two weeks have shown that the expectations of the continuance of the policy of silence, with which the session was ushered in, were not well founded. .The financial debate is likely to last all this week, and probably there will be considerable further discussion when the taxing Bills are introduced. OpP°" sition to the tax on kerosene, petrol, and other oils is being maintained, and they will probably be keenly contested in committee, if they are not withdrawn. It is now expected that the session will extend into the first or second week in October. The Public Works Statement will be delivered in about a fortnight.
