Uncle Sam Not
So Hard Up as
Was Reported
Revenue Need Is About S75r-
100000 Less Than ESti-
mate - House Committee
Plans to Raise St50,000,00
(By Associated Press. }

WASHINGTON, May 19.-Members Of
the house ways and means committee
were getting ready today to frame a
bill to- provide about $3.50, 200, 900 addi-
tional revenue for the fiscal year ending
June 80, 1917. by taxing incomes, in
heriJances and munitions. The amount
needed ,as reported yesterday by Sec
rotary McAdoo, is $75,000,000 less than
even conservative members of congress
calculated would be required.
Chairman Kitchin, of the house ways
and means committee announced the
plan to raise additional revenue would
be, shaped within two weeks and the
house would be ready to consider 1t i'm
mediately after the national conven-
tions. He believed that with the reve-
nue. problem simplifed by. the reduced
estimate of amount needed, the entire
legislative program can be completed by
by August 1. Senate debate may pro-
long the session, however.
1t is considered probable that an ON
nibus bill will be drawn to contain all
revenue measures, in accordance with q
plan President Wilson is understood to
favor. This will include preparedness
revenues.
Secretary McAdoo estimated the bal
ance in the general revenue fund at the
end of the present fiscal year would DC
about $3.50, 600, 900. and $1S,5O0,0 900 at the
end of the 1917 fiscal year. He took IN
to consideration probable costs or the
army and navy increases, larger ex-
penditures for good roads. rural credits
and flood protection.
