Reasons have been given for the be- Hlet that ho valid objection exists to the employment of a moderate num- beér of consumption texgs properly $oleéied, but it would, i my opinion, De feither wise nor expedient to in- €rease radically the volume of con- sumption taxes. The. krtivied inelud- ed_in the suggested T oF additional consumption taxes have not bheen selected because their B8 18 paPticus larly harmful or in apy sense less legitimate than thosd hot ineinded. Consumption taxes must be judged by practical standards. What showtd be sought are a few consumption taxes which tap the surplus income which is being wasted, not on con- glomerate multiplication of petty taxes upon every orticle of luxurious unnecessary consumption which can neither be clearly defined, cheap- ly collected nor administered without widespread evasion.” Ask Soda Tax Repeal. The repeal of the -tak—on woda fountain and other beverages - i asked, the secretary says DeoalEe THS collection of the tax, the aggregate of which is small, has presented an administrative problerh of magnitude, Added to that Mr. Houston says, there has been constant and widespread ev’lrnlon of such taxes. ; he excess profits tax, Mr: ston declares has not fulfilfed the (’:::mll- cal grounds upon which -it was en-° acted and has been fourd to be wrong ‘both in theory and in politioal philos. ophy. He says it discriminated against the conservatively financed corpora- tion while alding materially the firms whose capitalization ¢s exnggerated. He urges that it be replaced by some form of a corporation prefits tax “pot only on the grounds of the govern- ment’s revenue needs but upon ground of equality and justice.” The corpora- tion profity, the secretary continues. should not be allowed to escape with a tax of 10 per cent while other tax payers are subjected to taxes on their Incomes ranging as-high as 70 per cent. Rigid Economy Necessary. Mr. Houston again urges thé neces- sity for rigid economy in government cxpenditure, asserting that only by *onserving the flonces carefully can the expenditures be kept within the $4,000,000,000 annuafly which he sug- gests should be the basis for a reve- nue program, He is hopeful, however, that with “heavy burdens placed by the Transportatiofi Aet"” out of the way, there will be a substantial ex- cess shown by government receipts over government expencitures. An analysis of the government ex- penditures for the last fiscal year de- velops the fact that almost one fifth of the $6,400,000,000 paid out was spent in connection with the federal contro] and the guaranty of earnings for the railroads. Onty one department of the government—the War Depart- ment—spent more than was used in connection with the carriers. The War Départment’s total, the record shows, was $1,611,000,000 against $1,037,000,- 000 for the railroads. '\ War Debt Payments Discussing the war debt and a pro- gram for its retirement, Mr. Houston says that within the next thirty months the government will have to pay off approximately $7,500,000,000 in Victory notes, war savings certifi- cates and treasury certificates of in- debtedness. He proposed that the treasury certificates not be funded fur- ther; that they Le retired as rapidly as the treasury's conditions permit so the program for redeeming other gov- ernment obligations will not be hamp- ered by simultaneous payments. Mr. Houston tells Congress that the heavy payments required by the Transportation Aet had “disarranged the government's fiscal plans” but he believes early spring will witness final settlement of the clafms of the rail- roads under the guarantee provisions and that the treasury then can pro- ceed with its previously announced program of meeting and retiring the War Savings certificates, amounting to $800,000,000 and the Victory Note fssue which aggregates $4,500,000,- 000. Throught operations of the sinking fund, use of the small repayments by foreign governments gn loans, and the employment of certain salvage returns to the treasury, it has retired $1.764,806,150 in bonds, Mr. Houston nays, saving $100,000,000 on the transactions by buying in tffe opeén markets, Of the amount purchased, bonds aggregating $119,109,000 were retired from funds repaid by the for- elgn governments. Lessons of the world war, Mr. Houston says, have shown the need for the transfer of some of the treasury activities to other depart- ments. Five bureaus, War Risk In- surance, Prohibition, Public Health Service, Supervising Architect and the General Supply Committee, are in no way related to the fiscal operation ofthe government, he says, and urges that they be placed under other juris- diction. The request 1Is Unusual for few if any other executive de- partment heads have been willing to see their departments dismembered. His owe request, he says, demands the more attention for this reason. Advises Salary Increases In connection with this suggested reorganization, the Becretary asks that the position of under secretary of the treasury be created at a salary of $10,000. He recommends also an in- crease of the assistant secretaries from 85,000 w0 $7 Mr. n strongly urges the es- tablishment of & federal Dudmet sys- tem), declaring that unless such a plan the people will be greatly inereased through “the piecemeal methods of bandling appropriations without re- gard for or relation to intome of the | govern; ol E — Loans to-Reselgn-Powens Reviewing the loans to the foreign governments, Mr, Houston says the American government advanced i cash betwedti Aprfl'24, 1917°dna Ne vember 10 1920, a total'.of §9, 823,677.
