He said the Treasury estimates
for the current fiscal year, made
last January, have proved nearly
$1,000 ,o00, 900 wrong and that the
estimates for fiscal 1913. submitted
at the same time, "are evidently
d1cO WAO11S.
Senator Taft asserted that Mr..
Truman has opposed every reduc-
ton In Government expenditures"
and every tax cut, although In Sen
ator Taft's opinion those two
devices will do more to relieve
and maintain prosperity
than anything else that can be
done"
Meanwhile, Representative Dough-
ton, Democrat, Of North Carolina,
Democrat on the House
Ways and Means Committee, sought
Senate support for legislation he
yesterday which would
allow husbands and wives to split
their incomes for tax purposes. ef-
fective next January l. The effect
Of this often Is to put the two In
. lower surtax bracket, thus reduc-
ing the tax. Mr.. Doughton esti-
mated 1t would reduce Federal
