ON TAX
GUT PLANS

The tax reduction fight in the
Seventeen Congress. which promises
to be spectacular and bitterly con-
tested. got under way today with
the assembly of the Joint Congress
sional Tax Committee to consider
the various plans advocated. There
are three principal plans:
1. Sponsored by President Coolidge
and Secretary of the Treasury
Mellon which would limit the total
cut to $3.50, ZOO, 900.
Sponsored by Senator Reed
Smoot R.) OF Utah, chairman Of the
Senate Finance Committee, which
would hold the reduction to
$S5O, 200, 900.
3. Backed by Representative Gar
ner, the Democratic tax expert, and
supported by most Democrats, which
would push the reduction mp to
$400 900 900 or $500. 600, 900.
Representative Garner declared
Congress will not follow the Treas
ury's recommendation in tax slash
ing because every business man in
the country knows the Treasury has
been Iamentably inaccurate in esti-
mating Treasury SURPRISES, and no
one has faith in Treasury figures
any more"
All the conflicting plans contem-
plate decreasing the corporation tax,
repeal of the nuisance taxes, In
Guiding automobile taxes, and cut
ting the intermediate brackets In
the income taxes.
Representative William r. Green
R.) of Iowa. chairman of the joint
body and head of the House Ways
and Means Committee, presented re-
ports of investigators declaring that
millions of dollars In surfaces have
been evaded by great family-owned
corporations through piling up OF

then follow the curved footpaths
around the basin which will give

far enough away from it to make it
a quiet retreat where their thoughts
may be directed toward the meaning
of the monument"
