Budget debate and tax plans for wartime spending in Parliament
The House of Commons reviews expenditure for the provisional cavalry and army amid war emergency. Chancellor and Mr. Pitt discuss a vote of credit, land and malt taxes, duties on tea and salt, armorial bearings, and a 15 million loan plan. Estimates show modest excess over November figures and proposals to raise 23.45 million in new taxes to service the loan. A slave-carrying bill gains a clause limiting slave shipments by deck contents.
