MELLON SAYS TO
 REDUCE EXPENSES
CONGRESS IS TOLD THAT IT MUST CUT EXPENSES OR IN.
 CREASE TAXES.

Washington. = Congress has been warned by Secretary Mellon that it must reduce government expenditures or increase the nations tax burden. Appearing before the House Ways and Means Committee, the Treasury head said additional cuts of more than S250 100000 will have to be made in the estimated expenditures of $4,55O,- 100000 for this fiscal year if addition al taxes are 10 De avoided.
 Under estimates of federal outlay for all purposes this year as presented by MT. Mellon, $3,830, ,OO0,000 will have to be raised by taxation, whereas he estimates that the present revenue law would provide $260,000,000 1ess than that sum. due largely to the shrinkage in the yield from excess profits and income taxes.
 The secretary showed that expendi- lures thus far in this fiscal year have actually increased compared with those a year ago. He told the com mittee that ordinary expenditures for July, the first month of the fiscal year, were $322, 600, ,000, against $307000, ,0OO in July, 19920, leaving a current de- felt of $113,O00,000 compared with a delft of $76,000.0o0 in July year ago. Of the total expenditures last month $115,000,000 was for the account of the military and naval establish ments and $32,0000O0 for the Ship ping Board.
 ''If expenditures are to continue at anything like these rates, the estima- tion will be greatly exceeded" he said.
 Representative Mondell of Wyom- ing, the Republican leader, said in $ formal statement that it is entirely practical, in his opinion, ito reduce the total tax levy by at least $500,- 000000 and still meet all proper, nee essary and essential expenses of the government"
 "The excess profits tax and the higher income surtaxes should be re- pealed and nothing substituted for them," he said. "The so-caued nuis- anee taxes and the transportation tax, in whole or in part, should be re- pealed, and some simple, easily under stood tax, as for instance the propos- ed 5 per cent fiat increase on corpo- ration taxes, enacted to provide funds lost by the repeal of these 1ast-men- toned taxes.

LUXURY. EXCESS PROFITS, iN- COME AND suRTAxEs TO
 BE ABOLISHED.
NEW TAXES UNNECESSARY
Income Tax of Corporations Would Be Increased Ten Per Cent Under De- cis:on Reached By Haroing and
 Republican Leaders.

Washington.-An actual reduction in taxation has become certainty as a result of an agreement reached at a conference between President Harding and Republican leaders of the House to effect sweeping slashes in revenue and appropriation esti- mates.
 A program was framed calling for a revenue bill which will raise only SS,075, 100000 from internal taxation or a reduction of $495,000,0 900 from the total of $3,570,0OO, ,000, which ac- cording to the latest Treasury esti- mates, would be the yield of the present law during the fiscal year 1922.
 The total to be raised from all sources, including customs and miscel- laneous, but not including postal re- ceipts, will be $4,034,O00,000, or re- duction of $516,000,OOO from the esti mate of $4,55O,0O0,O0O made under Secretary of the Treasury Mellon in his statement to the House Ways and Means Committee last week.
 The cut of $516,000,000 represents the total cut of government expendi- lures agreed upon at the White House {. conference called by the president upon his return to Washington.
 Republican House leaders won out in their program to keep expenditures down SC as to avoid the imposition of new taxes. As a result of the agree ment the proposed new taxes, such as the $10 tax on automobiles, the two cent stamp on bank checks and three cent postage will be unnecessary.
 The slashing of expenditures also will make possible a smaller increase in the flat corporation income tax pro- posed as a substitute for the excess profits tds. The flat tax probably will be 12 1-2 per cent instead of 15 per cent as proposed. The present flat tax is 10 per cent. The present $2,000 ex- emption on corporation incomes also will be retained, according to present indications.

2 NARROWLY ESCAPE
DEATH WHEN SPAN OF
A BRIDGE COLLAPSES

Tucson, Ariz., July 31.--A wom-
and two children narrowly escaped
death here late today when a span
of a large bridge on which they
were standing, over the raging tor
rent of the Rillito river went out
as the result of undermined pill
lars of the structure giving way.
Pedestrians were able to rescue the
trio when the span started sink
ing slowly.
The Rillito river has swollen
steadily in the last four days as
the result of heavy rains. Inter-
mittent showers occurred here
throughout today.
The Santa CruX river, which also
runs through this city, is not car
rying nearly as much water as the
Rillito. Neither river, however,
has overlooked its banks and no
fears of a flood are held.
