AMSTERDAM, June 29.—The pub
lished statement of the receipts of the
Netherlands government, from all
forms of taxation and state enterprises
for the month of April, shows that
while the war is not only increasing
the cost of running the Dutch govern
ment, It is also decreasing Its rev
enues. This is sad news for th^ Hol
landers, who already find the burden
of the expenses of the mobilization
well nigh intolerable, when added to
the ordinary expenses of life. Long
before the war, taxes In the Nether
lands were remarkably high. Every
Dutch child started life with the
handicap of his share In over 1200,000
per day of taxes for expenditures
which are unknown in any other coun
try of the wold. In Holland it is an
existence tax; for it costs that much
to maintain dykes to keep a great part
if the Netherlands from being over
run by the sea.
The annual budget in Holland If
carefully calculated to produce a
certain figure through taxes; when
the revenues fall below that figure, as
in the month of April, extra imposts
are necessary and lead to growing dis
satisfaction among the people who pay
taxes. This year, the month of April
exhibits a shortage of $4,992,804 com
pared with the revenues of the cor
responding month of last year. So
grout Is this deficit In proportion, and
so close have the figures-this year. In
the first three months, run to the
figures of last year's receipts for the
same period, that, with the April
deficit, the revenues for the four
months of 1915 show a loss of $3,
183,709 over tho snme period of 1914
The principal deficits lie in the re
ceipts from the inheritance taxes, and
in the excise on sugar. The former
fall $1,065,600 short of last year's
figures, while the latter fails by
$338,800 of touching the sum received
from that source In April 1914.
The Immense Increase in taxation
B which will be necessary to pay the
1 expenses of mobilization, and the
5 large number of laborers out of work
through the suspension o flndustries
vitally affected or temporarily dis
commoded by the logn continuance of
1 hostilities, makes the outlook for the
1 taxpayer In the Netherlands far from
1 hrlght. Already, the three great
' cities of Amsterdam, Rotterdam and
The Hague, aggregating almost a
f million and a half souls, have estab
p lished municipal distribution of bread
to the needy and Issued bread cards
B to those in want.

MANCHESTER, Eng. June 29.—
The biggest Increase in wnges ever
grunted in any of the coal mining dis
tricts of Ureat Britain has Just been
awarded to the 300.000 miners em
ployed In the districts presided over
tiy the Coal Conciliation Board for
England and North Wales.
The award gives an advance of 16%
per cent from May 5 on the actual
wnges earned by the men on that date.
This Is equivalent to an advance of
25 per cent on the so-called standard
flxod under the Minimum Wage Act.
A colliery owner testified at the last
meeting of the board that many of liis
men were earning $6 a day under the
old standard. It is expected that the
granting of this latest advance will
greatly stimulate production, as the
narrow margin of coal on hand is
causing the government mucn anxiety.
The Conciliation Board, In granting
the increase, added the following
statement:
“The board strongly urges all min
ers' associations to take such steps as,
In their Judgment, are needful to
insure the fullest possible attendance
at their work of all workmen In the
federated area.”
