BY DAVID LAWRENCE. The battle for the repeal of the tax on automobile sales has opened in the Senate. President Coolidge and Secre- tary Mellon are against repeal, but on the other side are the automobile com- | panes and organizations of automobile and truck owners. The total influence of the latter was sufficient to cause tle House to eliminate the auto tax from the revenue bill, and there are in- deations that the Senate may do like- wise. The item Involves a reduction in taxes but curlously enough the amount is not the chief subject at issue on either side of the controversy. - The Treasury is insistent s a be abolished and_that the principle of a sales tax should he retained in Ameri- ca’s taxation system. It is contended by Secretary Mellon, for instance, that i it ever should be necessary to meet a possible deficit by increasing_taxes, the very first thought that would enter the congressional mind would be to in- crease the corporation tax, and that this would affect the automobile companies far more than a tax spread out 5o ex- | Easy in Emergency. In line with this idea is the actual gress in the last two years, when the corporation tax was increased over the | protest of business generally. And now the corporations, while having no diffi- culty in getting the corporation tax back to where it was before, neverthe less, know that this form of taxation is one that can be put back in an emer- | gency: much easier than any other. The Treasury argues that an automo- by the consumer. On the other hand. the automobile companies have felt that a certain stimulus toward buying | machines would come if the total cost | to the consumer were reduced by the amount of the tax. While there might be a tendency to agree with the Treas- ury on the abstract theory of taxa- tion, the practical aspect of an auto- mobile world engaged in the most seri- ous era of competition it has ever faced—a competition involving the ab- | sorption of used cars to make way for new cars—is at the moment the gov- | erning factor. Cite Luxury Tax Repeals. | In opposition to the idea of the Treas- | ury, too, that the auto tax is a “lus ury” levy, the automobile companies in- st that the removal of the tax on| candy. jewelry and motion pictures es- tablishes a precedent. The administration will make a real | effort in the Senate to block the repeal | of th. tax on the ground that the as sessment is not felt by the public gen- erally and is a method of taxation that | should be retained. It is known. how- | ever, that the automobile owners’ asso- ciations and various other bodies are so | well organized in congressional districts | that the pressure on the House was | such that an overwhelming vote was | cast in favor of repeal. The Senate is | being canvassed at present in much the | same way. and the prospect is that if any tax bill is passed it will carry a re- peal of the auto tax, effective imme- diately on the signing of the new reve- nue la SCHWAB SAYS COAL 1 ILLS MUST CORRECT SELVES NATURALLY | (Continued from First Page.) must have been talking with operators.” “We're secking here a remedy,” broke | in Chairman Watson, "if we can, for a | manifest evil in the coal industry.
