By the Associated Press said vesterday, that there are many members of Congress who insist that only the 214 per cent sinking fund. as provided by law, should be used in retiring the debt. These leaders like- wise have suggested the possibility of a $500,000,000 cut in taxes, while Treasury officials now say they can- not see a reduction in excess of $300,000,00 Proposals are expected to be advanc- ed for a further cut in the normal rates, particularly those affecting the small taxpavers. It has not been made clear what the Treasury will advise as to this rate. although when it was last cut it was indicated that the Treasury thought the reduction had gone far enough in that direction. Mr. Mellon, it has been indicated, will probably submit no plan direct to Congress this year. He is prepared, however, to co-operate with adminis. tration leaders in drafting any measure and will give them all available records upon which they can base their legislation. The Treasury, too. will have its ideas about the means of applying a reduction and there is little doubt that these will include elimina- tion of many of the excise taxes, re- duction if not the entire abolition of estate taxes, repeal of the admission or amusement taxes and the taxes on of quests the Community Center Depart- ment of the public schools to include | PARIS, June 6.—Heroism in giving {in its estimates an amount sufficient [UP one's life to save another is just |10 keep the Central High School and|Plain suicide, in the opinion of the the Wilson Normal School gymnas.|¥Trench insurance companies—a con- | iums open after school hours to meet |tention in which they have just been | the ever growing demand for athletics.
