Tax Reduction Plans Washington, Nov. 14 (P —Tax reduction—a material slash in the government's annual assessment dividuals and business institutions— today was definitely and imminently in prospect. A general cut of one per cent in the normal rate of taxation applic- able to incomes of the present cal- endar year and effective all along the line, from the mammoth cor- poration to the lowly wage earner whose earnings just exceed his per- sonal exemption, is planned by the treasury department. A detailed program has been drawn up, after a careful examina- tion of the many factors which con- | government revenues and ex- penditures and, with the approval of President Hoover, will be recom- mended to congress for action when that body meets next in regular session. Lven Includes Bill The treasury's plan even includes the form which the necessary legis- lation should take in order that de- lay, particularly that incident to a general revision of the federal rev- enue laws, may he avoided. All this was revealed by Secre- | tary Mellon in a statement published The desire of Mr. Hoover and | Mr. Mellon for tax reduction has been well known for many months, but in their own view a determina- tion of the effect of many circum- stances, upon the nation's finances | was necessary before action could be | taken. Although saving that complete estimates of government needs as compared with prospective govern- ment revenues were not yet avail- able, Mr. Mellon in his statement as- | scrted that the study of the situa- | tion had progreseed to such an ex- tent that a recommendation for tax reduction could be made. | “The indlcations are that business | profits, dividends, interest and wage payments in 1929 will consid exceed those of the year | 1928, he said. “Our estimates ind} that the government should both the fiscal years of 1930 | 1931 with a surplus.

He | pointed out that “on the first $4,000 | of taxable income the rate will be | reduced from one and one-half per | cent to one-haif of one per cent; on | the second $4,000 from three per | cent to two per cent: and on the balance. the present five per cent will be reduced to four per | cont.” | The corporation tax rate. he said would be reduced from twelve {0/ n per cent He estimated the total duction of income taxes to be collected during the calendar year of 1930 at approximately $160.- 600,000, No question was made of contempiated revision of the | structure. rate elev any surtax rate | out | from {can business. |lems and Since the reduction incomes of this year d ta to be collected in the next, wit re turns to be filed by March 15. 1930 it is hoped that congress will oid all possible delay in approving the Y ry legislation. Mr. Mellon suggested that legislation take the form of a joint congressional lution, rather than of a tax bill, as the latter would throw the federal x structure open to a gencral revision. Both Partles Approve Finally the treasury sccretary said that the proposal “discussed with republican democratic aders of both of congress, who have tentatively approved the proposed *n- dation.” is effective on 50~ had b and houses recor Some speculation the wording ol the whether President ra proved was Hoo proposcd plan the or was withholding until complete est needs and prospective this and the next fiscal been completed In this connection. it was pointed that the statement was given to the press by Undersecretary Ogden Mills after returning to the treasury a conference with the chief executive. Tarlier, Mr. Hoover had conferred with Mellon. Mills and Roy A. Young. governor of fod- eral reserve board.

This announcement strikes a reas- suring note which will be generally welcome." Percy H.

Business, after the present slump, would have been facing the future with a great deal of uneasi- | ness, but this very constructive pro- gram of Mr. Mellon's will be a splen- did stimulant to business people.

The advance. brought to an end at least temporarily, the most de- structive wave of securities liquida- tion in the country's financial his- ory. “Bear’ traders, who were be- bids, at being, served to large [1ieved to be largely responsible for the ruthless selling of the past few | days, were driven f{o cover as prices opened substantially higher. and then cxtended their gains. Sales Very Heavy Total sales on New York stock exchange during the first half hour of trading were 1,736,300 shares, almost cqualling the turn- over of 1,505.300 shares during the same period yesterday. The ticker soon fell more than 20 minutes be- hind the market. The sudden change sentiment, coming after four suc- cessive seasions of steadily declin- ing prices on the last three of which prices touched new low levels, was widely attributed to the an- nouncement %of a proposed lowering of federal income tates and the ap- pearance of strong buying support as shown by the placing of a bid for 1,000,000 shares of Standard 0il of New Jersey stock at $50 a share just before the close of yes- terday’s market.
