The singing of the mass lasted
an hour and a half, after which the
procession again formed for the exit

thousand priests remaining in Their
places about the foot of the altar.
Again the procession was halted by
the pressure of the throngs about

New Tax Cut Not
Assured, Says Coolidge
Continued From Page one)
Constructive ECONOMY
nv Disnatch A. +. Wire)

WASHINGTON, June 21.-"A treas
ury sudpIus of $500, 100000 for this fl
nance year ending June 80 was pre-
dicted tonight by President Coolidge,
but he withheld promise of early tax
reduction pending test of program
of Constructive economy which he
said should net SURPRISES also for the
next two years
Addressing the semi-ahnual budget
meeting, Coolidge estimated that the
next fiscal year, beginning July 1.
should be closed with a surplus Of
$1S5, 600 900 on the basis of present es-
Inmates of receipts and expenditures,
and the following year with a margin
of $20,O0o,GOO.
ut would be unfortunate to raise
hopes of further tax relief" he con-
tinued, until we are sure that the
state of our finances justifies it. There
is no such surety today. Business was
quick to anticipate the last tax reduc-
tion. 1t was justified in doing so. To
raise such hopes at this time might
encourage bust ness to anticipate
again, as it did in 1925, further tax
reduction. This might have a detri-
mental effect upon the sterilization of
, the country under the present tax law"
Facing the necessity of public inn
provements such as the recently au-
thorized buildings program, the presi-
dent said, the government could not
expect an ''appreciable reduction" in
total annual expenses, and he pro-
posed therefore a gradual reduction in
personnel.
1T is very easy to have too many
people on the pay roll" he said. THE
reductions which have been made in
personnel show no detrimental effect
upon our results. Rather has it seemed
to improve the efficiency of the serv-
| ice. 1 am encouraged in the thought
! that we can have further reduction of
personnel without discharging sim
gle person, by the simple device of not
! filling all the vacancies that occur.
This would not operate in the sum-
mary separation of anyone from the
federal service
7 Debt reduction also was emphasized
by Coolidge as an essential element
in constructive economy. Every dol
lar applied to the debt saves at least
) four cents a year in interest to the
!
he said
The president again reproached the
state and local governments for their
| increased expenses, warning it was
! fraught with grave consequences. In
| 1921, he said, the cost of all govern
ment in this country was $9,5O0,O0O,0OO,
of which federal expenditure consti-
tuted almost so per cent. In 1925 the
cost of all government had increased
to $11, OO,OOO,OOO, of which only 81
per cent was represented by federal
| expenditure.
While expenditures of the federal
government probably will reach $3,-
6QO,OOO,OOO for the next fiscal year.
! Coolidge expressed hope the follow.
ing year could be conducted at cost
| of $3,200,000,000, exclusive of the pos.
| tai service and tax refunds

to the representatives campaign for
the senate. After Greenfield had
testified that his committee turned
over it's contributions to Thomas F.
watson, treasurer of the Ware state
wide organization, instead of to its
own treasurer, Chairman Reed read
the law requiring the treasurer II
each campaign committee to handle
it's funds and observed:
eff were prosecuting attorney
YOU would make that explanation to
a jury"
Before quitting for the day the
committee began an inquiry into thl
controversy in the Women's Chris
tian Temperance Union of Pennsyl-
yania over fund raised by that or
ganization for use by the state in
enforcing the prohibition law.
Chairman Reed did the unusual
thing of calling two witnesses to
the stand at the same time-Mrs
Maude T. Seymour, of McConnells-
burg, vice president of the unoin
and Mrs. Ella M George, OF Plus
burgh, president. Both will be eX-
amined again tomorrow.
Mrs. Seymour told the committee
that during 1.-The heat of the cam
paign" she had charged that the
women's organization never had been
able to get an accounting of the
fund, which on last September had
reached a total of $126,00O.
She added that she did not charge
any fraud or that anything was
wrong except that it was impossible
to get definite statement of the
fund
Mrs. Seymour said she went over tc
the Pepper camp because Governor
Pinchot issued statement saying he
had the support of the Women's
Christian Temperance union after
that organization had refused his re-
quest to make him it's candidate

upon approaching as nearly as pos
| of the ceremonies were forced to APP
peal to the multitude over the pub
lie address system to leave the field
at once. In the same manner, Il
warning was sounded that the wood
! en- elevation on which the altar stood
was endangered by the thousands
which mounted the steps.
! The crowds moved out in solemn
order, only disappointed that they
could not kneel individually before
the altar crucifix to pour out their
prayerful alteration of the eucharist.
More than two hours after the mass
ended, twenty or thirty thousand peo-
pie still were in the stands, some
still were in the stands, some still
pressing forward toward the altar
AS early as o'clock this morn
ing, thousands were in their places
in the stands and at 10 o'clock, the
scheduled starting time, the sea of
humanity which surged about all sides
of the already packed stands, block
ed the path of the ecclesiastical pro-
fession for almost an hour, delay
| ing the mass and taxing the efforts
of the police to open a narrow lane
! for the prelates.
AS the priests, bishops and cardi
nails passed through the fervent multi
tude outside the field, hundreds
dropped to their knees for the bless
ing of the legate. Inside, the pro-
cession was greeted first with an en-
thusiastic outburst of handclapping
and then with reverent silence and
prayer.
