BUDGET  \nThree separate objectives \"….a strong pound,a steadily growingindustrial strength,and full employment\"were the aims of Mr。JamesCallaghan,Chancellor of the Exchequer,in drawing up the Budget which hepresented to Parliament on May 3.Details of the new measures introducedin the Budget are given in the Supplement to this issue of British Record.  \nThe Chancellor made clear in his speech that although the Budget isa major weapon in the attainment of this triple objective,it could notsucceed without the active support of other Government policies and apositive approach by all sections of the nation.He listed,in this re-spect,the importance of(a)\"...the attitude of industrial managementand workers towards..increasing productivity,of getting greater effi-ciency and of abandoning restrictive practices...”,(b)the country'ssupport in\"...carrying out the policy of tying together increases in in-comes and increases in productivity,\"(the voluntary work of the TradesUnion Council—though more effective than some critics allowed—neededthe reinforcement of legislation that the Prices and Incomes Bill mentionedin the Queen's Speech would give--see British Record Nos.4 and 8 of March 4and April 26),(c)the efforts of exporters,and(d)the Government's actionin keeping overseas defense expenditure and aid\"...within the limits ofour strength\"。  \nIn the last Parliament the balance of payments deficit overshadowedother Government policies and became a talking point at home and abroad.The Chancellor had welcomed this because it had made people more awarethan before of the problems facing the country.During that time the deficithad been halved;full employment had been maintained and the level raisedin the areas of less industrial activity;industrial investment had beenkept at a high level.The Chancellor looked forward to the time when,asthe Government's policies took effect,the achievement of his triple objec-tive would enable the balance of payments problem\"...to be relegated to itsproper place,and enable the country to concentrate on other issues.\"New Measures  \nThe Chancellor's strategy of achieving his triple objective combinesa direct attack on the overseas deficit on capital and invisible accountwith a redeployment of domestic resources as to improve the visible balance.  \nThe most striking feature of the Budget is the introduction of a Selec-tive Employment Tax.This tax,by putting its main weight on the taxationof services,which have been hitherto largely untaxed,introduces thenecessary degree of
