May bs Recommended for an Increase,
aud Reduction on Distilled SPirits.
WASHINGTON, D. c.. April 3o.-It IS
very probable that the secretary OF the
treasury soon Will recommend to Con-
grsss material reduction OF the inter
nal revenue tax on distilled spirits, and
an Increase In the tax on beer. This
action will be taken on the ground that
the present tax OF 81 10 per gallon is
above the revenue producing point
Just what reduction will be recon-
mended Is not known. but there are rea-
sons FOR believing that ninety cents, the
rate collected under the Mckinley bill,
will be fixed upon.
No definite conclusion has yet been
reached as 20 what the accommodation
as 10 the tax on beer shall be, but IT IL
altogether probable that an Increase
will be advised.
