Mellon Says 250 Millions Must Be Cut Off Expenditures
Washington Aug 4 Secretary Mellon told the house Ways and Means committee that a cut of more than 250 million dollars from ordinary government expenditures is needed this fiscal year to allow for additional taxes. He projected total government cost at 4.5 billion, with 3.85 billion from taxation, and cited July expenditures and deficits as evidence for further reductions. He proposed tax revisions including higher corporation tax, excise boosts, and repeals affecting ice cream, fountain drinks, and luxury taxes, aiming for a 3.2 billion revenue this year and 3.282 billion in 1923. National farm groups oppose repealing the excess profits tax, urging lawmakers to retain it.
