tho promise made today By
Chairman Hawlcy Of tho house
ways and means committee which
must initiate legislation To carry
out the treasury proposal for .
Sl60,0OO,OOO revenue cut.
HaWlcv said tho suggested re-
ducttCn would cost the govern
ment only about $85, 900 900 In the
current fiscal year. In the next
fiscal year. lie said congress
could rcenact the resolution II
revenues should warrant, or con-
slider another plan OF temporary
reduction.
Washington. Nov 14.-tT9-Con-
gressiOnal leaders spoke quickly today
to voice approval OF the treasury rro-
posal for a $l60. 0.0OO,O 900 tax cut and
simultaneously Secretary Mellon said
announcement OF the contemplated
reduction had been decided upon q
week ago and was merely a coinci-
dence with the disturbed condition in
the stock market.
Mellon coupled this statement with
an expression that he had the ut
most confidence in the continued
prosperity in the country and that
before the tax reduction was decided
upon all elements entering into gov
ernment income had been considered
thoroughly.
At the capitol leaders OF both
houses prepared to move swiftly to
draft legislation to carry out the pro-
posed reduction and today it was
their intention to offer the necessary
resolution early in the December Ses-
sion.
Flat One Per Cent Cut
The measure must be intrcduccd
first in the house. The treasury pro-
pOsal would provide for flat one Dcr
cent cut in the normal individual and
corporation tax rate.
Mellon in discussing the situation
said losses in the stock market, which
might tend to reduce income OF those
who had suffered in the market, had
been given thorough consideration
and that it was the decision Of treas
ury experts that the continued pros
perity Of the country justified q tax
reduction at this time.
II the treasury had not had conf
dence that the prosperity Of the coun-
try would continue. the tax reduction
would not have been recommended
Mr.. Mellon added.
The treasury head said the an
nouncement Of the proposed tax cut
was not made yesterday because OF
the condition Of the market.
Make No Estimate
The treasury today declined to
make public estimates OF probable
income and expenditures for the cur
rent fiscal year and next year.
Congressional leaders in charge Of
revenue legislation gave their tenta-
tive approval to the reduction pro-
poSal at conference with Mellon late
yesterday.
Speaking for the senate Democrats.
Senator's Simmons OF North Carolina
and Harrison Of Mississippi. an
nounced that their approval would
have to be tentative, until they had
conferred with colleagues.

Smart Warm Weather Costumes
By MARY MARSHALL.

But now so thoroughly have girls in
offices adapted themselves to the one
piece frock that when they consider the
possibilities of the separate blouse and
skirt, or the skirt and jacket suit, they
think of 1t as something not well suited
to business hours. The separate blouse,
especially the washable white blouse, is
something that most women reserve for
special occasions-not the very wear
able, everyday sort Of thing 1t was
once.
!. A decidedly smart warm-w weather cos
tune recently much admired in Paris
consisted of two-piece suit Of rather
heavy black satin cut on tailored lines
worn with a separate blouse of white
satin. BY having two or three Of the
white satin blouses such suit would
be decidedly useful and one that would
be becoming to almost any woman.
A sleeveless frock for little girl Is
taken as the model for this weeks dia-
gram pattern, which will gladly send
to you on receipt of your stamped, self
addressed envelope. The circular con-
tains directions for making and sketch
Of the original model.
