SUGGESTS THAT TWO ALTERNA
TIVE PLANS APPEAR TO BE
FEASIBLE
WASHINGTON, Dec. 20. (/^—Presi
dent Coolidge revealed to Congress
an almost unprecedented prosperous
condition of the treasury in his an
nual budget message, but he again
emphatically declared against any
reduction in tax rates at present.
A surplus of $383,079,093 is in sight
for this fiscal year, ending June 30,
and $200,703,863 for the following
year. This year’s surplus is $200,
000,000 more than was originally es
timated and despite the cut in tax
rates of last March will exceed the
margin of last year by $6,000,000.
But not until there hsa been another
year’s test of the new revenue law,
and a sounding of the extent of the
present prosperity, the President
said, can it be determined “what our
permanent policy of taxation shall
be.”
Mr. Coolidge discussed the benefits
of two possible means of disposing
of the surplus—application of it to
retirement of the public debt, or its
return to the taxpayers—and left the
choice entirely up to Congress. He
asked that if the latter course were
pursued, it be accomplished by giv
ing the taxpayers credit on their first
two payments of the coming year.
t
Gov. George A. Parks left Juneau last
Wednesday, it is.reported, on his an
nual pilgrimage to the National Capi
tal. His plans call for spending the
holidays at Denver with his parents
and continue on to Washington the
first week in January. Governor
Parks will be in the East for about
three wreeks and should be back in
Juneau the latter part of January.
Territorial Secretary Karl Theile
will be acting governor during the
absence of the governor.
