MELONS PLAN
TAX REVISION
Secretary Of Treasury Will
Appear Before Senate
Finance Committee

Washington. d. c., Sept 7,-Secre-
tary Melons suggestion for tax re-
vision. abandoned by the house ways
and means committee after the inter
vention Of President Harding will come
up again tomorrow before the senate
finance committee. MIR. Mellon will be
on hand to discuss those suggestions.
the estimates as revised after the
White House conference August . and
the tax bill as passed by the mouse.
The senate committee completed pre-
liminary consideration of tho house
measure today but decided TO postpone
decision on the changes made by thC
house until after the secretary had
been heard.
Suggestions originally presented TO
the house committee by Mr.. Mellon
were built around an estimated tax
yield requirement of approximately
81. 700 100000 next year. or some $780,
100000 more than provided for in the
house bill. They contemplated new
sources of revenue such as a one cent
increase In frst-class postage, stamp
tax of two cents on each bank check
and graduated license tax on auto
mobiles to average $40 yearly for each
machine, and increased levies on Gig
arets, and tobacco to yield an addi-
tional s5o,000,o00 annually.
Tho original total tax yield as given
by Mr. Mellon is approximately that
which some members of tho senate
committee believe. will be necessary
next year.
Others and particularly tho Demo-
Gratis arc OF the opinion approximately
four billions Of dollars will have to be
raised.
Some committee Democrats indicated
today that they desired to question the
secretary as to tho purpose of the au-
thorization contained in the house
measure for the treasury to issue an
additional $500. 100000 in short dated
securities. They desire to know they
said. whether this authority was re-
uucstcd by him in the belief that tho
deficit under thu house tax measure
would total that sum. After Secretary
Mellon has been heard the committee
will get down to revising the house
measure and considering general 1ues-
