If the story ended there, eiehe Irish parliaments might find fin- sucingrather difficult. But the United Kingdom will pay back to Ireland what- ever taxes it collects, minus a contribu- outo`Fmperiai liabilities and expepdi- tere and the cost of any, services admin- 'fisiered•in Ireland by the United King- sions government, WWI these deduct time, the Northern parliament and the Stec/them parliament get back the taxes levied within their respective jurisdic- tions.They are also empowered to levy say ether taxes of their own which they -see fit,•so long as these do not come 'within the categories mentioned... Revenue from Land Purchase Acts i'i source of revenue of a type quite ;unfamiliar to Canadians will be that eau= payments under the various land 1patrchase acts. Fifty years ago Ireland wits cursed with a system of land ownership which impoverished the epe sentry at the expense of the land - Hord. Tenants who leased fauns, fences, drains, they were obliged to supply themselves. And when a lease expired ora tenant was a year behind, these im- sroventents which he had made became the property of the landlord. Meas- ures have since been passed which have In various ways permitted the tenants 'to acquire their own holdings and have haus ended the vicious system which formerly prevailed, Putting it in a gen- eral way, the government of the United iiingdom advanced part, and later the whole, of the money necessary for such purchases of land, the tenants repaying the government to annual instalments. Ten and three-quarter million acres lave thus been acquired by 327.000 tenants for £105,000,000. Two and three-quarter million additional acres are near process of acquirement by go,o00 tenants for £18,000,000. The DANDRUFF GOES!

What they will receive.' from other sources is unknown, but it is thought that the twa governments will .haev, between them a' surplus of over seven and a half million dollars for their requirements, after paying their obligations to the. United King- dom. The Imperial Exchequer will de- fray the cost of providing,. the neces- sary parliament and departmental build- ings, For the purposes of the financial pro- visions of the act, a joint exchequer board is established, whose duty it will be to. determine various questions as be- tween the .two parliaments and also as between then and the United Kingdom parliament. Irelands's Imperial Contribution As a partner in the United Kingdom, with members in the British house as well as in her own, Ireland will make a contribution to Imperial finance. It is fixed provisionally. at £18,000,000, of which 56 per cent. is to be borne by Southern and 44 per cent, by Northern Ireland. At the end of the second year it is to be revised by the joint exche- quer board on the basis of taxable cap- acity, and the board will also have power to adjust on this basis any over- payments which the first two years may have involved. Under such an arrangement, Ireland will continue to support the British Crown, the British navy, the British army, and will contribute towards tate debt charges of Britain. Her obliga- tions as an integral part of the United Kingdon remain. But site is given a great measure of self-determination by the creation of her own parliaments,' with funds of their own, and wide. pow- ers with respect to the making of laws, Births.
