AGREEMENT
Is EXPECTED
House and Senate Likely
To Get Together On
War Tax Bill
~ Ansociated Promo

Washington, Sept 13.-Three out
standing points OF difference existed
between senate and house conferees
on the war tax bill when they began
their work today. They are the in
come, excess profits and second class
mail matter sections.
Confidence is universally express
ed that an agreement soon will be
reached on the measure. House
members are pleased with many
changes made by the senate.
Some house members said the SEN
ate income taxes provision for COL
lecting information. instead OF taxes
at the source, gives corporations an
opportunity to escape taxation and
shift IL to the people who supply
their funds. They also oppose the
senate plan for excess profits tax
assessments and hope to convert the
conferees to the house system
though there will be no difference
Of opinion as to the desirability of
raising a billion dollars from this
source.
A compromise on the second class
mail rates is expected by the house
leaders. The senate eliminated en-
tirely the house proposal to raise the
rates enormously.
Elimination of the proposed tariffs
and consumption taxes did not dis
please house Democrats.
