WILL NOT ASK
ADDITIONAL TAX

WASHINGTON, Sept. Coon Eres-
sional finance leaders today were greatly
relieved BY Secretary McAdoo's an
nounccment that he will not ask addi-
tional taxes in view of the seven bill
lion dollar increase just asked for the
army They declared however. that his
decision means one of two things with
respect TO the governments finance
policy.
l. Possible abandonment Of the policy
Of raising one-thtrd of the cost of the
war by taxation and two-thirds by bond
?. Communication of estimates sub
mitted TO congress in future upon the
bases Of money actually able TO be ex-
PENDED rather than upon total needs.
3. The tangle into which the presen-
tation Of the new army estimate through
congress has revived among finance and
ways and means members demand that
departments preventing such estimates
after regular appropriations have been
spent and how much can actually be
spent within the year and then be con-
tent with appropriations covering the
additional amount that actually can be
spent.
The war department asks for more
than three billion dollars for ordnance
in the new bill.
