clared to-day.
His announcement is understood 10
represent the almost unanimous view of
Republican leaders OF the House. Mr.
Mondell asserted that already the Amer
lean people have paid much greater
percentage OF their war debt than other
nations and that these payments should
be slowed up so that greater reductions
In taxation may be made.
Ii Ia generally recognized that this
policy must be followed In regard 10 the
floating debt and that the Victory notes
which mature in 1928 must be refunded
into long term bonds IL any considerable
reduction in taxation is made. Mr.. Mon
dell indicated that the Republican lead
ers favor allowing the floating debt. rep

tiflcates or Indebtedness. TO run along
until the Victory notes mature In 1873
and then make one general refunding.
The Republican leader estimated that
BY July | Treasury certificates OF in
debtedness outstanding will be about
81 500, 600, 900.
There will not be a sales tax passed
at this session for two reasons, said Mr..
Mondell. First. a sales tax cannot be
justified except as an emergency
measure and. second, the country needs
and is demanding a lifting and not a
shifting OF the tax burden. Therefore
there should be no additional taxes.
The country Is not getting back TO
a pre-war basis. but 10 postwar basis.
and the time has come when the floating
debt must be considered as part of the
war debt and treated as such. Then. J
am convinced that the excess profits and
other taxes regarded as unnecessary and
Injurious to proper and legitimate bust
ness can be repealed without addition
of any new taxes"

which prohibits betting on horse
races was granted today TO Mayor

Saturday. In the meantime. the
management announced il would ap-
peal Judge Forans decision.
