TAX REDUCTION
Of F25PERCENT
COOLIDGE PLAN
President Sends Special Mes
sage to Congress in
Taxation Problem
INCOME TAX DEMAND
Would Be Authorized Before
March Is Is Plans of
Mr.. Coolidge

WASHINGTON, March 11.-Pres-
ident Coolidge today sent special
message to congress recommending
reduction of twenty-five per cent
on income taxes for 1928 be author
lied before March 15.
The President believes that the
importance of the reduction would
justify the laying aside of all other
legislative business for its considera-
ton.
The text OF the message follows:
ut had been my earnest h ore that
a 25 per centum reduction in taxes
to be paid for the current year
might be provided by law before the
18th of March current.
'sMany people have bee.. expecting
that such would be the case and de-
ferred their tax returns accordingly.
1t is matter of such imminent Inn
portance that have NJ hesitation in
recommending that the public W. :
fare would be much advanced by
temporarily laying aside all other
legislation and enacting resolu: on
for this purpose, which ought to be
by unanimous consent.
'The taxpayers, the business in
terests, agriculture, industry, finance,
in fact all the elements that go to
make up the economic welfare of the
people of America would be greatly
benefited by such action.
"It would remove an element of
uncertainty from the current finan-
cial year at once, which would be q
strong stimulant to busine with ITS
resultant benefit to the wage Garner
and the agriculture of our country.
