Public debt cuts promise tax relief under Coolidge plan

The Treasury reports a New Year aim of reducing the public debt by 1 billion dollars in 1926 as interest costs fall with each debt reduction. Last year payments reached 734 million while pre war debt totals dropped little. Allies contributed only 158 million of retirement. The plan ties debt relief to tax savings, arguing 4.1 percent interest means one hundred million cut saves 4.1 million in interest, totaling 41 million saved if the 1 billion reduction occurs by July 1920. The Coolidge administration is credited with handling both tax and debt reduction.
