Question: When was the American banker on which Revenue Act of 1924 was named born? 
Context: The Sugar Act, also known as the American Revenue Act or the American Duties Act, was a revenue-raising act passed by the Parliament of Great Britain on April 5, 1764.  The preamble to the act stated: "it is expedient that new provisions and regulations should be established for improving the revenue of this Kingdom ... and ... it is just and necessary that a revenue should be raised ... for defraying the expenses of defending, protecting, and securing the same."  The earlier Molasses Act of 1733, which had imposed a tax of six pence per gallon of molasses, had never been effectively collected due to colonial evasion.  By reducing the rate by half and increasing measures to enforce the tax, the British hoped that the tax would actually be collected.These incidents increased the colonists' concerns about the intent of the British Parliament and helped the growing movement that became the American Revolution. The Townshend Acts were a series of British acts passed beginning in 1767 and relating to the British American colonies in North America.  The acts are named after Charles Townshend, the Chancellor of the Exchequer, who proposed the program.  Historians vary slightly as to which acts they include under the heading "Townshend Acts", but five acts are often mentioned: the Revenue Act of 1767, the Indemnity Act (1767), the Commissioners of Customs Act (1767), the Vice Admiralty Court Act (1768), and the New York Restraining Act (1767).  The purpose of the Townshend Acts was to raise revenue in the colonies to pay the salaries of governors and judges so that they would remain loyal to Great Britain, to create a more effective means of enforcing compliance with trade regulations, to punish the province of New York for failing to comply with the 1765 Quartering Act, and to establish the precedent that the British Parliament had the right to tax the colonies.  The Townshend Acts (1767) were met with resistance in the colonies, prompting the occupation of Boston by British troops in 1768, which eventually resulted in the Boston Massacre of 1770. The Internal Revenue Act of 1864, 13 Stat.  223 (June 30, 1864), increased the income tax rates established by the Revenue Act of 1862.  The measure was signed into law by President Abraham Lincoln. The Revenue Act of 1862 (July 1, 1862, Ch.  119, 12 Stat.  432 ), was a bill the United States Congress passed to help fund the American Civil War.  President Abraham Lincoln signed the act into law on July 1, 1862.  The act established the office of the Commissioner of Internal Revenue, a department in charge of the collection of taxes, and levied excise taxes on most items consumed and traded in the United States.  The act also introduced the United States' first progressive tax with the intent of raising millions of dollars for the Union. The Free Port Act was passed in 1766 also in 1766 the Declaratory Act was passed with the Revenue Act of 1766 and more see and the Stamp Act was repealed with the Sugar Act.  The Free Port Act stated that trade could be made with French and Spanish colonies.  The Free Port act was a modified system in use by the French and Dutch. The United States Revenue Act of 1924 (43 Stat.  253 ) (June 2, 1924), also known as the Mellon tax bill cut federal tax rates and established the U.S. Board of Tax Appeals, which was later renamed the United States Tax Court in 1942.  The bill was named after U.S. Secretary of the Treasury Andrew Mellon. The United States Revenue Act of 1948 reduced individual income tax rates 5-13 percent, increased the personal exemption amount from $500 to $600, permitted married couples to split their incomes for tax purposes, made the distinction between community property jurisdictions and non-community property jurisdictions less relevant in the administration of the income, estate, and gift taxes, and provided additional exemption for taxpayers age 65 and older.  The Revenue Act of 1948 was vetoed by President Harry S. Truman, but his veto was overridden on April 2, 1948, by a two-thirds vote of each House of the Republican-controlled Eightieth Congress of the United States. Andrew William Mellon ( ; March 24, 1855 – August 26, 1937) was an American banker, businessman, industrialist, philanthropist, art collector, and politician.  From the wealthy Mellon family of Pennsylvania, he established a vast business empire before transitioning into politics.  He served as United States Secretary of the Treasury from March 9, 1921 to February 12, 1932, presiding over the boom years of the 1920s and the Wall Street crash of 1929.  A conservative Republican, Mellon lowered taxes and government spending in the aftermath of World War I. The Revenue Act 1767 (6 Geo.  III ch.  52) was an Act passed by the Parliament of Great Britain in response to objections raised to the Sugar Act 1764.  The Revenue Act was passed in conjunction with the Free Port Act 1767. Brushaber v. Union Pacific Railroad Co., 240 U.S. 1 (1916), was a landmark United States Supreme Court case in which the Court upheld the validity of a tax statute called the Revenue Act of 1913, also known as the Tariff Act, Ch.  16, 38 Stat.  166 (October 3, 1913), enacted pursuant to Article I, section 8, clause 1 of, and the Sixteenth Amendment to, the United States Constitution, allowing a federal income tax.  The Sixteenth Amendment had been ratified earlier in 1913.  The Revenue Act of 1913 imposed income taxes that were not apportioned among the states according to each state's population.
