THE PASSAGE of the tax reduction bill in the
House in the shape in which it was put by the
committee will give general satisfaction. As
passed it makes reduction of about S40,-
900, 900 in the taxes This is 100000 600 more
than the President and the Secretary of the
Treasury recommended but the measure, OF
course, will be accepted by the President if it
reaches him in the present shape. Just what
shape it actually will have after going through
the Senate can not be foretold, but there is
reasonable presumption that the Republican
leaders in that body will take steps to prevent
the Democrats from cutting the taxes below
that figure The House Democrats endeavored
to make cut of s70,OOO,O 900. but were beaten.
It is we'll to try the 100000 cut for year
or two. and then if further reduction can
safely be made, let another cut be had.
