The Democratic members OF the Finance
Committee disposed Of the insurance tax
and the administrative features to-day.
The committee struck out the provisions
taxing life insurance and casualty In
surance policies but retained the Houses
proposed tax on fire and marine insurance
policies. rhe administrative features
were not materially changed
There was a lot of debate over the pro-
posed tax on gasolene and on bank
capital and surplus Both will come up
In the caucus. A subcommittee composed
Of Senators stone. johnson and Hughes
reported I'm favor OF striking out the tax
on bank capital and substituting a stamp
TAX on negotiable instruments. Including
checks Senator Hughes did not concur
In the action.
When the full Democratic membership
OF the committee got to work on the sub
committees recommendation they struck
out the tax on negotiable Instruments and
restored the House provision for the tax
on bank capital and surplus. Many pro-
tests have been coming to the Senate from
bankers against the bank tax. and 1t is
certain to be stubbornly contested In the
caucus
The retention OF any tax o. gasolene
will be- resisted by Senators Williams and
Gore. The Subcommittee reported that
automobiles should bear the entire tax in
stead OF gasolene. The Senate committee
compromised as between the House, which
had laid the tax on gasolene and omitted
TO tax automobiles. and the report pre-
scented by the subcommittee. The tax on
gasOlene was put AT one cent a gallon. Just
half the rate fixed by the House and then
tax on automobiles was set at oue-h air
the rate fixed by the Senate sub-commit-
tee leaving It finally at 90 cents per horse
