WASHINGTON. DEC. S. f AP f
The chamber of commerce of
tne United , States I was charged
oy fcecretary Mellon with
ing presented a surprising miscon
ception of facts and an ammnf
hardly worthy of a businessmen's
report In urging a $400,000,000
reduction In taxes. . .
Mr. Mellon v wrote to tt( 'ia
Pierson. president of tha ehnm-h
in a continuation of the contro
versy that has arisen between the
administration and the - chamber
over the sibe of the tax reduction
to oe made by the congress which
oegins. sessions . on Mondav. ' mi
treasury favors: $225,000,000 re
ducUon while a slash of $230,000.
000 is proposed in the revenue bill
drafted by the. house - ways and
means committee, - . "
In assailing the chamber of
commerce prorram Secretary nri.
Ion followed the lead of PiMiAmt
Coolidge. , whose Tiew that ,the
chamber was advocating an nn.
warranted reduction, was disclosed
recenUy at the White House. After
mis, tne chamber t reiterated Its
demand for: a $400,000,000 tax
cut and defended Its course in ad
vocating; It. ; ;-H: '
Secretary Mellon todav e
pressed surprise that'the chamber
had made a tax demand "In the
entire absence of detailed figures
as to future revenues and expendi
tures' and charged that Its estlm
ated yield from the - corporation
Income tax represented "inexcus
able carelessness.,. - ;
By Its own argument, the secre
tary said the chamber disapproved
the wisdom of repealing the excise
tax on automobiles or on admis
sion and club dues as it would
make a too narrow tax base and
force the government to rely sole
ly on the Income tax in corpora
Uona and individuals, the tobacco
tax and customs duties.
. In conclusion, the secretary said
"let me take serious, exception to
the statement in the chamber's re
port that there would be no great
cause for alarm even though a defi
cit should, through unexpected de
velopments arise in any year. ;
, "For the United States govern
ment to borrow to pay for current
expenditures would be in my
Judgment Inexcusable," .Mr. Mellon
added. A balanced budget Is an
essential element of any sound fis
cal" system, and as long as I -am
secretary, the treasury department
will resiset the undermining of this
principle and will continue to ad
vocate a constructive system ade
quate to produce every , year the
revenues accessary t meat ewrre&l
expenditmrea, ' .
