Indirect TAXES
Being WORKED OUT
This Is One Way POincare Plans
to Save Franc

Paris, July rs Up - The franc
must save itself" This is the guild
ing principle of the financial re-
Mobilization plan adopted by the
cabinet of Raymond Poincare. 1t
is expected to be carried out prin-
cipally by realizing more indirect
taxes, to the extent of another four
billion francs annually. Among
other ideas is that the business turn
over tax, now variable. will be fixed
at uniform rate of two per cent
The decision to increase indirect
taxes has been motivated by the
clearly and repeatedly expressed op-
position of parliament to having re-
course in credits from abroad. The
governments plan does not neces-
state full powers" and parliament
will be asked to give 1t the right to
proceed by decree only in certain
drastic administrative economies
when NJ. Poincare reads his state
ment of policy and submits his plan
on Tuesday.
The premier will ask the cham
Der 10 postpone QeDdte Oh inter-
pellations on the governments finan-
cial policy until the bill itself comes
Up for debate. 1t will make this
request a question of confidence. NJ.
Poincare at the same time will re-
quest the finance committee to speed
UP examination of the bill so that
it may be debated by the house by
the end of the week and adopted
before August 8. after which parlta-
ment will be prorogued for vacation.
The premier has before him the
big task of getting together In some
way within the next 80 days between
four and five billion francs.
NJ. Poincare is opposed to foreign
credits. and has made no secret Of
this fact. He has discussed the
financial situation with the minis
ter and admits that the situation Of
the treasury is bad. The ministers
have discussed among themselves
several important points for the
financial redemption of the franc
Among the important points DISCUSS
ed have been no moratorium for ma
tIonal defense or short-term treas
urv bonds; no funding and no adj
vance from the Bank of France on
