With the Potomac.Electric Powel valuation case scheduled to come be- fore the District Supreme Court soon, it developed today that the impounded funds Involved in the litigation have mounted to approximately $4,300,000.

House Committee to Discuss Possible Changes. President Coolidge expects to confer with the Secretary of the Treasury and members of the House ways and means committes regarding possible revision of the federal taxes, it was sald at the White House today by a spokesman for the President. The President, it was sald, at pres ent has no definite views on this mat ter, but will give it his close atten- tion. It is belleved, however, that if there is to be any revision it will be downward. There is in contemplation by the administration, it was said, the crea- tion of a corporation or corporations to handle export wheat. Eugene Meyer, —managing director of the War Finance Corporation, is prepar- ing this plan, it was indicated, and cither Mr. Méyer or Frank Mondell, a dircctor of the ,War Finance Cor- poration, may go to the northwest to study the situation. Could Use U. §. Funds. a_corporation would not re- quire legislation, but could be set up voluntarfly in any state or states. It could employ money furnished by the government to the War Finance Cor- i poration and the banks. The export orporation would be for the purpose of marketing wheat and not speculation. The federal government will not interfere in the Oklahoma situation unless called upon by the governor to aid in maintaining order. Of {course, if the United States mails or fedvral courts should be interfered with in Oklahoma the federal gov- ernment would act without any re- quest from the governpr, it was said.
