GOLD STANDARD
Restored Today By Li-
cence '0 f Bank of
England to Export
Bullion
By Associated Press.
LONDON, April 28.-—The gold
standard in England will be restor-
ed dating from today by a special
license to the 132-1111: of England to
export gold bullion. it was announc-
ed by‘Winston Churchill. chancellor
of the' exchequer. in his budget
speech in. the House of Commons
this afternoon. -1
The bank's special license, Mr.
Churchill said. would operate from
today pending the formal lapsing on
December 31 next of the 1920 act
prohibiting the: export of gold bul-
lion.
Mr. Churchill characterized the
yield from internal revenue as satis-
factory.‘ ,
Excess profits and corporation
profit taxes showed a. deficit of a,-
000,000 pounds sterling. but these
were moribund taxes and were more
than counterbalanced by the yield
from‘lncome tax. r and death
taxes.
The consuming power of the Bri-
ish people has been maintained. de-
clared Mr. Churchill.
He said he realized that the sur-
plus of the late Chancellor's estimate
corresponded with remarkable ac-
curacy to the budget's revenue
from spirits. Tobacco had fallen 2. -
000. 000 pounds sterling below the
last budget estimate. but on the
other hand beer had advanced ha a
militia sterling.
Mr. Churchill said he was making
arangements to obtain credits in the
United States for not less than 3300.-
000.000. with possible expansion. ,
a American credits being ar-
ranged for. Mr. Chm-chill- said.
would only be used if and when re-
quired. and he did not expect that
it would be necessary to use them.
