Mellon Starts Work On Measure
Washington June 19 Secretary of the Treasury Mellon has begun work on a new tax plan after the sixty eighth Congress rejected his previous proposal. He aims to present a revised revenue bill in December, with the presidential election ahead shaping support from Republicans and Democrats. President Coolidge signed the old bill but pledged further reform, while Congress’ mood and political pressures suggest a cautious path for any second attempt. The outcome hinges on the election and party dynamics in Congress.
