In spite of the cult of taxation and the belief

that the proverb of "the more the merrier" applies to taxes, we believe that the people of Britain still maintain their old healthy instinct in favour of allowing men's money to fructify

in their own pockets. The eulogists of single taxes, super- taxes, land-taxes, mineral-taxes, death-taxes, and life-taxes make a great deal of liaise, but the fact remains that the Government that renders the burden on the citizen easier is the Government best liked by the..tieople. Of so-called social reforms the benefits are always doubtful. There can be no doubt as to the benefits of reduced taxation.
