WOULD CUT TAX VIA WAR DEBT Adjustment of Allies’ Bill and Payment of Interest, Remedy Proposed. WASHINGTON, June 18. —A tax reduction averaging between $4 and s.l anfinally for even person in the United States will result from the permanent adjustment of the allied debt to this country. In addition it will open a way to this Government to retire some of its own war obligations which are falling due in the next two years. These two factors, It was learned today. furnish the explanation of why President Harding and his Cabinet want to put the allied debt on a permanent basis as soon as possible. They reached a tentative plan for doing this at the Cabinet meeting yesterday. The loans to the allies totaled about ten billion originally. Failure of foreign governments to pay interest, however, has Increased the total to a figure which now calls for an annual Interest payment of about (500.000,000. The 105,000.000 American taxpayers have been carrying this burden. Once the allies start paying interest it will be lifted. < RAP FAVORITISM IN PACKER BILL Industry ‘Wrote Haugen Measure,’ Charge. WASHINGTON, June IS. —“With the label of the packers" upon it, the slightly amended Haugen packer bill goes back to the House today. It passed the Senate late yesterday by a vote of 43 to 21. Charges that the Haugen bill had been “written by the packers” and was “thoroughly satisfactory” to them, were repeatedly made on the floor of the Senate and the charges were never denied. Senator Smoot of Utah, one of tne leading opponents of the measure, explained that representatives of the packing interests had been called in consultation over some of the technical problems during the draft of the Ilangen bill. As the Haugen bill stands the entire burden of administration is placed upon i the Secretary of Agriculture. No assistant or extra clerical force Is , provided. It also strips the Federal ; Trade Commission of its Jurisdiction over the packing industry. Community Service Is Launched at Columbus Special to The Times.
