MILK DISTRIBUTION
BY POOLING Plan
Adopted BY New England Milk Pro-
ducers' Association at Closing
Session in Boston.

Boston, FEB. 2The New England
Milk Producers association, IN con.
cl,dinQ its. annsaal .convention here to-
day. voted to adopt a pooling plan for
distribution Of its product throughout
this section. A committee was appoint
Cd to work out the details.
In a statement explaining the pro-
nosed plan the association sald-
eITnder this arrangement the farm
ers would own their own facilities for
handling their milk in the country and
would make into byproducts all milk
not needed in the city market. The
dealers would buy of the farmers such
milk as i needed to supply the trade
but would not undertake to handle the
surplus milk
The plan is similar fundamentally
to that used BY the New York Dairy

SPECIAL TAXES
TO PAY BONUS
Is Plan Presented By Sec
retary of Treasury
Mellon
INCREASED POST
AGE ONE IDEA
Increase of Tobacco Levles
Is Also Sug-
gested

Washington, ID. c., Feb. 2.--lbe sol
diers' bonus should be paid out OF spe-
cial taxes, such as increased iirst ana
second class postage and tobacco ieV'
les. Secretary Mellon declared to-day
before the House ways and means
committee.
Secretary Mellon reiterated hls Re-
lief that it would be impractieable 70
depend on the foreign debt for finane-
ing the proposed @fvc way adjusted
compensation plan because the reNe-
nuc from that source Is problematIcal.
These estimates Of revenue from
special sources were made by the see,
retary:
one cent increase in first class post
age. s70,000,O00.
Increased second class postage 70
wine out deficits in that branch q tbe
postofiice department, S3O,OoO,oOo.
Increased cigarette tax, tue increase
amounting to fifty cents on one shou-
SAND, NZ33ANuroHo'
increased tobacco tax, two cents a
pound, S5,000,000.
Increased documentary stamp taxes
S40,000000
TAX Of two cents on each bank
check. $30.000,000.
license tax Of fifty cents a horse.
power on automobiles, Sl00.090,000
The total estimated return IRON
these taxes was $500 100000.
Mr.. Mellon said the bonus wenid
cost S425 100000 year for the frst
two years and told the committee that
Il could extend the list of taxable
sources TO make mp the deficiency. he
made II clear that he was not rec
ommending' any Of the taxes sug.
gested.
The treasury secretary opposed Z
general sales tax on the ground OF
Che cost and difficulty Of administra-
tion.
II should say that we cannot IN
crease the taxes already IN existence,
said Mr.. Mellon. ms they already are
"a iurdensome as should be borne. We
should 90 further and find some broad
class OF a commodity on which rea-
sonable taxes would not be too great
a burden.
Il think that the use Of the for
eien debt for this purpose would bs
impracticable. The foreign debt Is q
very uncertain proposition and % IN
dertake to use il for this purpose
would lead TO great many diffeul
ties. II is problematieal whether
fnnds can be obtained within the time
to meet the bonus"
