D C—Official report« on the March tax payments Indicate to treasury officials that their esti mate of receipts tor the quarter and tor the fiscal year ending next June 30 will be borne out. The March Installment had been calculated at 3430.000.000 and receipts tor the fiscal year placed at 31.660. 000,000 In the treasury department. Secretary Mellon and Under Secretary Winston also had expected that 80 per cent of the March pay mauls would be In the hands of collector« by March 21 for certification to the treasury and their figures, they said Monday, show ed that the total on Saturday approxi mated 80 per cent ot the 3430.000.000. While the trend thus Indicated ha* given the treasury a feeling of se curity as to the Income for the gov ernment in the current fiscal year, no one. in the secretary’s opinion, can tell, at this time the full effect ot the reduced rates carried by the present tax law and he regards it as unlike ly that the treasury will be able to compute Its producing power until after the June payment is received. The fact that the treasury will not know definitely concerning the present law has not. however, delayed its plans for going ahead with a study of the changes In preparation for further tax revision next fall. Tax experts now are.engaged in going over administrative provisions of the law in an effort to find ways of stopping leakages and are drawing on informa 1 tion gathered by A. W. Grebb, assist ant to the secretary of the treasury, in his recent study of British tax ad ministration. Mr. Gregg was the treasury's rep resentative during consideration of taxation by congress when the pres ent law was in process of formation and he probably will set forth the treasury policies in the next one. Five New York persona. Including two women and two children, lost their lives early Sunday In a fire that destroyed an East Forty-seventh street tenement house occupied by 11 families.

Motorists in 35 states and the Dis trict of Columbia last year paid 379.- 734,490 in gasoline taxes, of which sum 348,711.326 was used in state road maintenance and construction. Much of the remainder collected was turned over to county and local road funds. The department of agriculture. In an nouncing these figures, estimated that only half the motorists In the country contributed to the fund, although all but 13 states levied a gasoline tax. The average amount paid annually where I the tax was imposed was 310.30 per vehicle. TORNADO DEATHS INCREASED TO 810 Several Injured Die; New Body Is Recovered.
