MORE REVENUE
NEEDED, SAYS
UTAH SENATOR
Revenue Measure to be Chang.
ed to Provide Money, He
Asserts
REMODELING is NEED

Washington, March 6.-The tax re
duction bill passed by the house will
have to be remodeled to provide fol
$lOO,OOO,OOO more revenue, Chairman
Smoot of the senate finance commit
tee, announced on the eve of con.
sideration of the measure by thai
committee.
Basing his calculations on csti
mates reported this week by the
treasury department that the house
bill would cut off $446, 100000 in
revenue in the calendar year 1925
Mr.. Smoot said this would fail by
$l0O,OOO,0OO to provide funds for the
working expenses of the government
alone, exclusive of soldier bohus
bill or other pending extra appropri-
alton measures.
Rate Changes
Mr.. Smoot declared that undoubt-
edly some of the tax rates would
have to be changed to meet this cx-
pected deficit. but expressed no opin-
ion as to what taxes would be af-
fected pending consideration of the
bill by the senate committee. The
principal tax reductions made by the
house were in the personal income
taxes, the miscellaneous or excise
taxes and a special deduction Of rs
percent on earned incomes.
This situation will be presented
to the committee today by Senator
Smoot. when it holds it's first session
for consideration Of the bill.
With tax legislation thus getting
under way in the senate, Senators
Watson of Indiana, a member of the
finance committee, and Moses, of
New Hampshire, Republicans, called
on President Coolidge yesterday to
inform him of the present outlook
for the bill there. They expressed
the opinion at the White House that
the bill would be amended in COM
mittee to carry substantially the Mel
lon income rates. The bill as report
ed out by the house ways and means
committee. carried these rates. but
they were substituted first by the
Democratic income tax plan, and
later by the Longworth compromise
schedslc, which was adopted with the
of the Republicans as a
unit.
Favor Old Form
The Longworth rates in the bill
provide for maximum surtax of
s7E percent on incomes above $780,
BOO while the Mellon rates carried
. maximum surtax of 25 percent
above 100000
Both Mr.. Watson and Mr.. Moses
expressed the opinion that, outside
IF committee, sentiment had not
'rystallized very distinctly on tax
legislation in the senate. This be-
ief was supported by statements of
senate leaders of both parties.
A determined effort, however, is |
to be made by administra-
ion Republicans to eliminate the |
,ouse amendments to the bill pro-
riding for increase in the estate tax
IS, institution Of gift tax, and |
opening of income taxes to certain
committee.
On the sother hand, some Demo-
rats have Indicated they will not
'nly seek to retain these amend
'ents but will attempt to broaden
no scope of income tax return

ually public records.
