FOUR BILLIONS
Secretary of Treasury Mellon
Asks Ten Changes of
Congress.
WOULD PUT LEVY ON AUTOS
Declares Suggested Revenue Reduc-
tions Can Be Made Safely Only if
Government Expenditures Are
Cut Down to the Limit.

Washington, Aug. 6.-The cost of
running the United States government
for the fiscal year Of 1922 will be
S4, $50, 600, 0O0, according to revised es-
Inmates placed before the house ways
and means committee by Secretary
Mellon.
He estimated that receipts would
yield S350,00o,00o and customs $780,
100000, leaving $3,830000,000 to be
raised in taxes.
For the fiscal year 1922 the present
law would yield $3.50, 100000 in in
ternal revenue and customs. The re-
vised laws would yield $685., 900, 600,
Mellon said, if the revision of the cor
poration, income and excess prohts
taxes is made effective January !,
1921.
sThese figures do not include the
estimated receipts from the suggested
1-cent tax on first class mail matter
and 2-cent tax on bank checks" he
said. .sThese, it was estimated, will
yield Sill, 100000 a year, or $1,000
600 from stamps and $45,O0OOOO from
bank checks"
Mellon suggested as substitute Tor
the excess profits tax, rapidly becom-
ing unproductive, an increase OF Q per
cent in the present 10 per cent cor
poration income tax rate, and repeal
of the $1,000 personal income tax ex-
emptiOn.
He recommended reduction OF one
half of the freight and passenger
transportation taxes by January /,
1922, and repealed totally by January
/, 1928. The loss of revenue would
be S62, 900, 900 in 1922 and S1SO,OOO,OOO
in 1923.
The ice cream and fountain tax
should be repealed, as also the excess
price taxes on wearing apparel. Inc
loss would be less than S25,O0O,OOO
He said the tax on perfumes, cos
metics and proprietary medicines is
evaded and is irritating and should be
switched upon the producer or i'm
porter.
The secretary recommended dou-
bling the present rate of documentary
stamp taxes, increasing the revenues
by $4,000, 600 for the fiscal year 1922
and s70,O0O,000 for the fiscal year
1923.
He suggested the 2-cent stamp taxes
on each sight or demand check and
tax Of / cent on first class postage as
a convenient method of taxation
An annual federal license tax upon
motor vehicles averaging $40, graded
according to power, would yield $780,
100000 in 1922.
He suggested an increase in tax on
cigarettes from S3 to So thousand
and slight increases on other tobacco
products to yield additional revenue
of S25,OoO,0OO in 1922 and $57,000,OO0
in the fiscal year 1923.

be relatively small payments to rail
roads in 1928 as against the S545, OOO,-
