ADIMSTRATIONTO LAV TAX BURDEN ON LOCAL UNITS Relief Must Come Through Reduction of State, County and City Levies. By LAWRENCE MARTIN Copyright, 19it3, by United Preee) WASHINGTON, Sept. 24.—Foreseeing inability to reduce Federal taxa tion at the coming session of Congress, the Coolidge administration is fortifying itself with a defense and a reason. Responsibility for the weight of the tax burden will be laid at the door of State, county and municipal authorities. The Federal Government, the country will be told, Imposes far less, in proportion to the total taxation and to the services required of it, than local governments. Figures compiled by the census bureau will be used to show how tremendously the tax spending of local governments has increased during a period w'hen the Federal Government was doing its utmost to keep expenditures down. Some high Administration expect frt Will be possible to reduce Federal taxes. Blit with a bonus bill almost certain to be passed, many other officials do not see how any appreciable tax cut can come. Even if taxes are reduced, the country will be told real relief from taxation must come, if at all, through reduction of local levies.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

President Sets Out Policies on International Affairs and ' Farmer Relief in Speech Before Red Cross Convention. By United Preee WASHINGTON, Sept. 24.—1n his first public speech since becoming President, President Cooldige today revealed his position upon two important policies—international affairs and fanner relief. Speaking at the opening session of the American Red Cross convention, the President said: “That America* will remain unencumbered by spoils, independent, unattached and unbought.”

That the need of civilization Is for an idealism that "does not seek to reform merely by an act of legislation thinking that it can unload its burden on the Government and be relieved from further efforts.” Mr. Coolidge declared the world is coming more and more to roly on moral force and less on physical. “But Ideals of human brotherhood and service are Idle dreams unless they can be translated to practical action,” he said. “It is necessary on the one hand to avoid the illusions of the visionaries and on the other hand, the indifference of the selfish. "Each Individual and each nation owe their first duty to themselves.” His reference to those who would remedy conditions by an act of legislation and thus escape further personal responsibility, was taken as a reference to those who are uYglng him to turn over to Congress the farmers' problem for settlement. “Each Individual and each nation.”

It is the President’s first brush with members of Congress. Thus far he has handled the situation coolly and deliberately, refusing to take any step3 until he knows where they will lead.
