TREASURY HEADS
Continued from Page One)

ditions in business as result of aft
er-the war transition and readjust-
ment.
Mr.. HouSton's view of this was said
| to be that tax receipts would be ma
| terially lower later in the present
| fiscal year and that therefore. the
government income under the presen,
revenue laws could not be taken as
a basis for calculating future receipts.
| The Treasury will insist strongly on
| legislation which would produce four
billions for the next year, but the
ways and means of getting it will be
left to Congress, except for the sug-
gestion contained in the Treasury s
report. In fact, the tax law trainers
would be informed that there is no
alternative to voting a revenue act
that will produce the required
amount.
The program for handling the ma
tional debt-and its payment is OBJ
ligatory-can be accomplished only
through annual revenue of four bill
lion dollars. Treasury officials said.
With the Victory notes maturing in
1928 and the War Saving securities
falling due in the interim, and until
1924. it was declared a possibility
that the four billion dollar tax level
might have to be continued even I'M
til the latter date.
Treasury views are expected to
clash with those Of the Republican
majority in Congress on the questions
of ways and means of obtaining the
needed revenues. But with the
changing administration. it was I'm
derstood, the present regime at the
Treasury would merely suggest and
offer little argument in support of
their stand for repeal Of the excess
profits taxes and replacement of the
amounts so gained by higher income
axes.
Meanwhile, the Treasury will carry
on its announced program of short
term financing, issuing certificates of
Indebtedness TO meet current REQUIRE
ments in anticipation of quarterly
payment Of income and profit taxes.
1t was said that the certificate issues
probably would continue on a BIZ
monthly basis until Congress indi-
Gates what it will do in the way of
tax legislation.
