BIC TAX-CUT PLAN

CIared Absurd.

President Coolidge resents the per
sstency of the United States Chamber
of Commerce in advancing its $500
100000 tax reduction plan, a proposal
that in his opinion is out of the ques

Moreover, the Chief Executive con
sders absurd any simultaneous sug
gestions for increased expenditures
and reduction of taxes. The chamber
he believes, could much better devote
its energies to curbing Federal dis
bursements. as he considers this the
only avenue to decrease levies.

TREATY DENIED AS REPLY.

Was Negotiated Some Time Ago.

BELGRADE, Jugoslavia, November
26 Up).-The attempt which has been
made to represent the conclusion of the
defensive treaty" between Italy and
Albania as the italian reply to the
treaty Of friendship between France
and Jugoslavia is an unfair analogy.
a semi-official communique says. The
analogy is unfair because it is APP
parent that the Italo- Albanian alliance
was worked out for some time pre-
vious to its announcement and when
nothing was known Of the Franco
Jugoslav pact, the communique de-
cIares.
The Italo-Albanian treaty is a con.
tinuation Of previous policy nd shows
that the conclusion OF the Franco.
