London, Dec. 15—What can we tax next? is the question which financial advisers of the government are puz- zling over as the time draws near for next year’s budget. With the cost of the war steadily mounting, any pro- posal that bids fair to realize a few thousand pounds per year without in- justice to individuals and without in- creased cost of collection is worth careful scrutiny. The new French tax on all who buy extravagant meals at cafes and restaurants is being favor- ably watched from the English side of the channel, and at the same time even the smallest existing items of public revenue are being examined to see if they can be made to yield more. A writer in the Economist suggests a revision of the numerous license du- ties, 'other than liquor licenses. For example, a manufacturer of wood alco- hol now pays an annual license of 10 pounds, 10 shillings ,while a manufac- turer of petrol or gasoline only pays one pound. “The number of firms in- volved is less than eighty,” says the writer, “but it is believed .that they could safely stand a considerable in- crease in charges. A similar increase is possible in the case of dealers in these commodities. Almost as much more could be obtained by increasing the licensing fees for selling patent medicines from five shillings to a pound. These licenses woreover are at present collected only in Great Brit- 4in, and could be extended without great injustice to Ireland as well. “It must be said,” writes another tax expert, “that so small annual duty as five shillings ought never to have n imposed for any purpose. The cost of collecting such a‘sum once a year is altogether out of proportion to PUTNAM A. Cordier Pays More Than He Earned from Joseph Wulf for Punching Lat- ter—Mrs. W. J.
