At the same time house Republi- can Leader Tillson said he saw no necessity for a tax increase by the next. congress. He added “it should be the care of the next congress not to make necesstary the levying of new taxes,” Senator Harris, Georgia, ranking Democrat on the senate appropria-| tions committee, likewise joined op- ponents of proposed further demands on taxpayers. He said he believed his party would cooperate to hold down appropriations at the next session. After a conference with the prest- dent, Tilson. agreed with others that no more money would be needed for operations of the farm board, which he said “has failed” to stabilize prices. The treasury expects to issue its new. securities by April 15 go the money will be available at the end of the fiscal year on June 30. Just what form the securities would take was not known. Besides meeting the deficit, the treasury has been asked to supply $100,000,000 more for veter- ans loans by April 11. March income tax collections were only $334,830,214. Last year the total for'the month was $559,503,708.. Foc the fiscal year beginning June’ 30. all collections amounted to a like period last year. The deficit ‘last Tuesday was $594,813,175.
