Amusement Tax Proposals Stir London Budget
The London Chronicle reports a proposed amusements tax in England modeled on France since 1850. The plan adds a tenth to theatre and concert tickets, five percent of ball admissions, and a quarter of gross receipts for other gatherings. Paris raised 7.5 million francs from such taxes in 1913, with box offices taking 41.5 million francs. London could yield far more.
