WASHINGTON, D. c., July "a
Leaders in the senate have decided
that there is nothing to be gained
by further delay in the war tax meas
ure. This attitude was decided upon
yesterday after a prolonged confer
ence at which 1t was pointed out that
there is no telling how long the pro-
posed liquor legislation will hang fire.
It is this uncertainty over the prohi-
bition measure that has held up the
war tax bill. The finance committee
therefore voted to report the war tax
bill out as approved, and the debate
on that measure probably will be-
gin not later than Wednesday.
