Mr. A. T. DAVIESasked the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether, in cases of payment of Excess Profits Duty in war securities, he will make a provision that all issues of such securities without distinction shall, in the case of original subscribers, be accepted at issue price?
Mr. CHAMBERLAINNo, Sir. I am not prepared to vary the terms on which, as provided in the various prospectuses, certain war securities are accepted in payment of Excess Profits Duty, or to give such privileges to securities which are not so accepted.
