HOUSE OF COMMONS
THE BUDGET DEBATE [ Australian Press Assn. ] LONDON, April 14. The Daily Express lobbyist states that famous bankers, businessmen, authors, Ambassadors, and at least six ex-Chancellors will hear the Budget debate beginning at 3.30. Every seat in the galleries has already been allotted. Ther e will be remissions of breakfast table duties, a rearrangement with the breweries under which the Exchequer will be partly recouped for th e benefits they will derive from derating. Air Churchill is considering an eleventhhour small concession to married income taxpayers, irrespective of whether they are childless. The Budget will have an important bearing on the Conservative election policy. It will provide for fundg for a slum clearance scheme, and Air Baldwin’s unemployment policy is being outlined on Thursday. It is in no way spectacular. It will include proposals for an exchange of visits by trade representatives of Britain, the Dominions and the Colonies.
